About Lisa Boucher
Author and speaker Lisa Boucher has devoted the last several decades helping women to recover from alcoholism, and as life changes so have her mission. The one common denominator she’s noticed when interacting with others out in the world is that people in general struggle to trust Jesus and let go of the things in their lives that they can’t control. It’s with that thought in mind that the Lord led her to find the prayer of King Jehoshaphat that prompted her to write, Pray. Trust. Ride: Lessons on Surrender from a Cowgirl and a King, in hopes it would help others to lean on God and let go of those things in our lives that strangle our hearts and keep us up at night.
