Kathie Lee Gifford recently announced the release of her new book, “The God of the Way,” coming August 30!
The Movieguide® Award winner penned the book alongside her friend, Rabbi Jason Sobel.

“Great news! My friend @rabbijasonsobel and I have a new book coming on August 30th titled The God of the Way!,” she wrote in the caption. “Join us as we discover the stories of key Biblical figures and how they continue to shape us all today. Merging the ancient with the modern, we analyze the story of God’s plan for mankind with historical and cultural insights. #TheGodOfTheWay is available for pre-order now via the link in my bio!”
Movieguide® previously reported on Gifford’s many career pursuits and her desire to glorify God:
Veteran actress, television host, and author Kathie Lee Gifford has had a successful career in entertainment. But the 67-year-old feels like the future is bright as she solidifies her entertaining prowess with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
“I am finally doing what I was born to do,” Gifford told Variety in a recent interview. “There’s a happiness in me now, just when so many other people are retiring and doing whatever they’ve always longed to do. I never stopped doing what I was born to do, but now I have the freedom to totally and completely pursue it.”
Gifford is accustomed to moving on from successful jobs, such as her 15-year run as host on LIVE and her 11 years as the daytime host of TODAY, in pursuit of her dreams.
“A lot of people asked, ‘Why are you leaving your dream job?’” Gifford explained. “They were great jobs and I was able to help so many people through the years because of those jobs. But it was never my dream job when I was growing up. There were no talk-show hosts — it didn’t exist. My dream was to become an actress and a singer and a writer.”
Gifford left her job at TODAY two years ago and is now a movie producer, author, and pursuing her career in the music industry.
“I feel like Waldo from those ‘Where’s Waldo’ books. Waldo’s everywhere…” Gifford said. “What am I doing here? So many people can do so many more things than they believe they can. But they’re paralyzed with fear of failure, I suppose.”
“Kathie is somebody who’s always bubbling with ideas,” former co-host Hoda Kotb said. “She is always thinking about the next project. She put on a Broadway show, she puts out albums, she does a television show, she did a movie. She says something is going to happen and she wills it into existence.”
Despite Giffords success and colorful career, faith remains at the center of her life. Gifford’s life shows that she puts her faith in God and not her job, whether it’s singing or hosting.
