In this spiritual autobiography, Dale Partridge reflects on his life before Christ, his conversion, and the sins he has had to put to death. As a public figure, his sanctification unfolded in the open—with both honest and dishonest critics.

In the Light is Partridge’s memoir to share his testimony, confront past sins, and address any controversies with honesty—not to excuse them, but to magnify the mercy of Christ. Weaving together confession, theology, and story, he shows how God’s sovereign grace brings light out of darkness and transforms weakness into testimony. This is not a tale of self-reinvention, but of divine rescue—a book for any who has questions about Dale’s story or simply needs to be reminded of Gospel grace.

Endorsements
"For those who have followed the various controversies surrounding Dale Partridge, this book is a necessary read. His friends will find it satisfying, and I hope his adversaries and critics will be open to the possibility that his repentance is genuine. I am glad that Dale followed the suggestion to face the music in this way."

- Douglas Wilson, Senior Pastor, Christ Church in Moscow, Idaho

"Over the past year, I’ve had the privilege of working closely with Dale in personal matters and supporting him as he pastored his local church. That time has given me a clear view of his character, convictions, and growth. This book offers a candid account of story, sin, repentance, and God’s sanctifying grace. In an era of internet drama and one-sided narratives, Proverbs 18:13 and 18:17 serve as timely reminders. I trust Dale will continue to serve the church faithfully, and I pray this book bears lasting fruit."

- Paul Liberati, Senior Pastor, Church of the King in Sacramento, California

"Pastor Partridge has done a difficult and impressive work in this book. Men who have already attained prominence at the time of conversion often suffer intense scrutiny and criticism for their first wobbling steps of new life. Fortitude is a rare and precious fruit of the Spirit. Dale has followed the example of great saints of former ages who have faced the failures of their past. In this book, he owns his guilt and shame before the world so that he can also proclaim them conquered by the blood of the Lamb. May God bless this work."

- David Reece, Pastor, Puritan Reformed Church, Phoenix, Arizona
