The Light Within Me Audiobook Summary

The celebrated Fox News star and #1 New York Times bestselling author offers a powerful, uplifting look at her life and her spiritual journey, reflecting on her family, her faith, and her successful career.

In her bestselling children’s book Take Heart, My Child, Ainsley Earhardt drew on her childhood and the inspirational notes her father wrote her before school each morning. In this moving memoir, she reminisces about growing up with a father who loved his children unconditionally–a cherished model of parenthood she has adopted with her own daughter–how her Christian faith has shaped her life, and the dynamic journalism career that has made her a trusted household name.

From her insightful political coverage, including a sit-down with Melania Trump, to her powerful reporting covering some of the most headline-making national events, to her live coverage, including Pope Francis‘ visit to New York, Ainsley considers her career and the factors that have propelled her to the top of her field, becoming a cohost of Fox & Friends and contributor to Hannity. Ainsley credits her success to the values she learned from her parents, and to the enduring Christian faith that has been her ballast through thick and thin, in good times and in periods of great difficulty.

Filled with inspirational quotes taken from Scripture, her memoir is infused with her spiritual beliefs and will touch the hearts of all her fans, reminding them to count the blessings God has given them every day of their lives.

As a Christian, I love reading biographies of other people of the same faith, especially those in the entertainment industry. Ainsley's story was very inspiring and heartwarming. I particularly liked her account of the orthodontist's office she went to as a kid; I went to one way back when that was the same way!

Like a drink of cold water in a hot desertThis book was so refreshing to me. I was fascinated by Ainsley's testimony and her description of growing up in South Carolina. I was fortunate enough to spend some time in South Carolina and I love that state and its people. Even more than seeing South Carolina through Ainsley's eyes, I enjoyed hearing about her walk with God. That description was heartening and inspirational. I recommend this book to anyone. It doesn't matter why you read this book, whether it's because you like biographies, or a view from inside a news organization on world events that happened in recent years, or a quest to find something more in your life that you sense you are missing: you will get something refreshing from this book.

UpliftingI thoroughly enjoyed this book about my favorite female news anchor. It is so uplifting to read how God has worked in Ainsley's life. Christians need this encouragement. Non-Christians need to know that God is there for them. Thank you Ainsley, for writing and sharing.

I don't watch much TV, no cable TV in my home. As such, I had no idea who Ainsley was when I happened upon this at the library. I love that Ainsley was not afraid to speak from the heart about her faith and her patriotism. I had the audio book, nice to hear it read by the author.

An inspiring read. I didn’t know much about her, and I’m glad I read her memoir. She’s very honest and has had some painful experiences that she came through by leaning on God and His Word. As a Christian, I could relate to that.

I read the 224 page paperback version of The Light Within Me. Ainsley truly inspires me in her writing and Faith in Jesus Christ her risen Lord. I to have a similar Faith and that I leave life in God's hands. Ainsley keep up the good work. Amen.

Is this an in depth memoir? Not really, but then it isn’t supposed to be. Some reviewers have been disappointed with it. Why? She didn’t go into more detail on her divorce or the scandal with Roger Ailes. And? That isn’t the point of the story. If you’re hung up on those issues then you missed her point by a mile! It’s how she let God guide her. Why is that such a hard concept to grasp? She made a decision at a SAE party that would be life changing. She could continue to party or she could break the mold and chose a different path; one that honored Jesus Christ and his father. She chose the later. I’ve also notice some reviewers have called out her childhood and imply she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. Really? Her father and mother worked hard for what they had and instilled in their children, “if you want it, earn it.” Yes, her parents were successful. Why should she be vilified because her parents were hard working citizens and began enjoying the fruits of their labors? What a novel idea. While her career has reached the pinnacle of her profession, personally, she’s had some issues. You see her first divorce coming like a run-away freight train. It was no surprise to see it end. I lived that life where work consumed my schedule and not family. According to recent reports her second marriage is also coming to an end. I can’t help but think the work and their baby Hayden play a major part in this collapse. I’d like to pass on something to her that I learned nine years ago. I reunited with my high school sweetheart after thirty years. At the time my mistress and bride were my job. Seven days a week, twenty-four hours a day. I’m not kidding. Even though two my grown children lived in the area, I worked too much to see them. When I started seeing Debbie again, a major change happened when I learned a valuable lesson: Instead of living to work, I worked to live. I am so glad I woke up. If not, I would have missed the greatest love of my life for seven months later her breast cancer returned. Enough about me. Overall it’s a quick easy read. Who will like this? If you’re a fan of Fox and Friends-definitely. If you’re looking for a story that will put a smile on your face, yes. One other note, Ainsley should check out the book, “The Shift” by Maryanne Connor. They have a lot in common.

I'm really impressed. She's not just beautiful; she's a very smart person, a good writer, and a strong, committed Christian who is transparent about her life and faith. Way to go, Ainsley!

My Rating: 5 StarsPublisher: Harper CollinsNarrator: Ainsley EarhardtLength: 6 hours UnabridgedGenre: Nonfiction, SpiritualI truly enjoyed this book.  I really connected to Ainsley throughout this book.  When she became a Christian, a TRUE Christian, I believe that many people go through the same thing.  I grew up in a Christian home, going to church on Sunday, Sunday night, Wednesday night prayer meeting and another time such as choir practice, drama, and many other activities. The point is when you grow up in a Christian home and surrounded by Christians you can feel and believe that since you are engulfed in Christianity, you believe that you are a Christian.  In reality, there is action to take and changes to make in your life as well as making God "Lord" of your life.I enjoyed reading about Ainsley's life, and how her dad would leave her scriptures to read.  Many things that happened to her as a kid happened to me.  I felt such a connection to her and changes she made and even things that happened to her.  It was wonderful reading about how she handled things with prayer first, and how she would pray for God's help.  I can relate to her story about letting go and giving her problems to God and how he blessed her.  I have been through things in my life where I had to let go, and pray, "God, you know what I need better than I do, I am going to stop worrying over this and give it to you."  In the end, things worked out better than I could have dreamed it up and I had nothing to do with it, God got all the glory.Thank you Ainsley Earhardt for writing this book.
