Praise for
Point of View
Elisabeth has captivated meas she has most of Americafrom the beginning of her public life on Survivor, through her days on The View, and in her classy, intelligent presence on Fox & Friends. While this book chronicles details and events throughout her life, including those public forums, the thread of her faith and her commitment to Christ through all of those seasons inspires me like crazy.

I have been blessed to know Elisabeth since she first arrived in New York City to work on The View. We have talked honestly together, prayed earnestly together, and cried vulnerably together. To know her is to love her. Her view will inspire you to trust for Gods best in your life, to look each morning to His light to guide your way, and to stay joyfully on the unique path He has for you. In Point of View, you will learn to live, love, and leave well.

Elisabeth has taught me how to be a better friend, mom, daughter, sister, leader, and follower of Jesus. Through this book and her life stories and practical advice, she will teach you the same!
Karris Hudson , vice president of Danitas Children
As much as I loved reading the behind-the-scenes stories and insight from Elisabeths life in the spotlight, what I loved most about Point of View is its challenge to trust God when I dont understand my circumstances, to be present and purposeful with my family, and to love peopleeven those I disagree within spirit and in action. Her book feels like a hug from an old friend, advice from a wise counselor, and a gentle push from a sister. Elisabeths honesty about the highs and lows of life as a working mom left me encouraged and motivated to make some hard choices and love the season Im in.
Samantha Ponder , ESPN Sunday NFL Countdown host
We all know Elisabeth to be a spirited fighter! Point of View unveils the source of the strength in her journey, inviting you into the wisdom and the life that has shaped her at every turn. You will be inspired and renewed to step into your story with a new fire.
Chris Tomlin and Lauren Tomlin , songwriter and worship leaders
God has given Elisabeth this platform to share many of her stories so the rest of us can be inspired by her dreams, courage, endurance, tenacity, vulnerability, transparency, and most of all, dependence on her creator. She shows us how to make the absolute most of every single opportunity but is also humble enough to accept when God is gently guiding her into an entirely different realm of life. Thank you, Elisabeth, for encouraging us to go full force after our dreams, all while staying in His will.

In a world that sometimes begs us to do the total opposite, Point of View is a great resource that will help us process having a godly perspective.
