About The Book

Pray. Trust. Ride: encourages you to stay in the saddle and ride through life with a looser rein. We live more fully when we can let go— even when all looks bleak and our brains scream, Hang on and do something! Do anything! Fix this! Stop that! The truth is, those problems that strangle our hearts are the sort of problems that we can’t fix. King Jehoshaphat understood that when he was boxed in by his enemy; at his most vulnerable moment, he leaned on God and let go of the outcome. Using this approach as her guiding principle, Lisa Boucher shares in this helpful guide how to lean on spiritual principles to help people live with less anxiety and strife, and how letting go allows us to accept that we can’t solve all our problems; we can’t save others from themselves; we can’t stop the inevitable from happening. What we can do is let go and trust that God has our backs.

“Today 'letting go' is frequently discussed and seldom understood. Lisa Boucher in her new book Pray. Trust. Ride. shows how the Bible can teach us that 'it's not about giving up on the dream, but about giving up on the way we think the dream should unfold.' She illustrates through King Jehoshaphat in 2 Chronicles how to follow the path of faith. This book will stay with you long after you have read it!”
