De: Julie Chen Moonves

Narrado por: Julie Chen Moonves

An intimate and inspirational memoir from the longtime host of Big Brother and former moderator of The Talk. Julie Chen Moonves shares her transformative spiritual awakening, revisiting pivotal moments from her life and career through fresh eyes. This as-told-to story is a unique, conversational audio experience that will put you in the room with Julie as she recounts her faith journey and favorite scripture passages, while inspiring listeners to find their own path.

Julie Chen Moonves spent the first forty-eight years of her life ignoring God. She had never even attended a Sunday church service. For much of her life, her impressive yet demanding career was her priority with little time or energy for spirituality. But in 2018, Julie’s life was turned upside down, and the sudden shift in perspective opened her eyes to the biggest opportunity of all: a personal relationship with God.

In But First, God, you’ll feel as though you’re sitting across from Julie as she weaves together memories with reflections on scripture, prayer, and how finding God has changed every facet of her life, from her on-camera work to her role as a wife and mother. She’ll take listeners behind the scenes of her career, telling never-before-heard stories from her first job as a reporter through becoming a network news anchor, two decades hosting the reality competition show Big Brother and eight seasons moderating the Emmy Award–winning daytime talk show The Talk. But First, God reveals who the real Julie is when the cameras stop rolling and looks back at the highs and lows of her journey with new perspective. Julie shows how scripture is leading her walk with God, and how every listener can find their own joy and peace in faith.

Love one another

As someone just getting acquainted with God, this was exactly what I needed. Julie shares her story authenticity and in great detail. I was impressed to hear her vulnerability with her first impressions of God and her views now. I’m also a Big Brother fan so hearing her journey with broadcast journalism and to the show was fun to hear. Thank you for sharing your story, Julie. It’s enlightening and appreciated.

Yes God, She's my sister.

I loved it!!! Julie was very transparent, raw and in someway childlike. The innocence a child has to things they don't understand or not familiar with. and that's exactly what Jesus calls us to be.
Except we become like a child it's impossible to accept and receive all that He has in store for us through Faith we receive Salvation. It was awesome listening to her excitement about Jesus and using who she is versus who she was and using her platform and resources to reach and spread the gospel.
God is Amazing and Strategic in His desire for ALL MAN to come to the knowledge of Jesus and Accept Him , He died so that we can be forgiven and SAVED. SALVATION BELONGS TO US WHEN WE ACCEPT HIM. Thank you Julie my sister in Christ for being Obedient to this direction in journalism. MY FAITH DEEPENED 🙏

Highly recommended

But First, God: is a beautiful testament to the power of self-discovery and the importance of embracing one's spiritual journey. Julie Chen Moonves' storytelling is genuine and deeply moving, leaving listeners with a sense of connection, inspiration, and a renewed appreciation for the spiritual dimensions of life. This audiobook is a true gem that will resonate with a wide range of audiences.

Enjoyable and touching

As a television personality, I was intrigued to hear more of Julie’s story. As a fellow Jesus follower, I was very interested to hear how she has been navigating her faith journey in the midst of the entertainment arena. I have been encouraged and I pray her continued success and growth to the glory of God.

Such an encouraging story.

It’s so amazing to hear how God is working everywhere. Loved hearing the part about David Pawson, listening to his unlocking the Bible series the year I was reading the chronological Bible cover to cover was life changing.
