A UNIQUE TWIST ON MEMOIR, CONNECTING A JOURNEY BACK IN TIME WITH THE FINDINGS OF PURSUING A LIFE LIVED FULLY AWAKE.
After years of wishing she could be perfect, but really loathing her story and hiding deep in shame, Riley took a trip through her past, allowing God space to rewrite the narrative of her heart, with true identity, clothed in love.
This is a story of realizing it is not too late to be who you long to be.
It is a story of a great big God leaning in close to whisper in a voice only she could hear to remind her who she is. By discovering His voice for her, she could see where He had chased after her to give her truth. She used the technique of writing her story to discover how God had been in every detail, covering and pursuing to give life. She found Him in all kinds of places, from in the embrace of her brother in an armchair, to in her car while zooming down the interstate!
This memoir extends a personal invitation to the reader to breathe deeply and believe that God is FOR YOU. This isn't a process of digging up the past and it's not even about stepping into purpose. This is about making space for the MORE God is offering in this moment.
- Are you full of exhaustion and so tired of trying to keep up?
- Do you even know what you want? When was the last time you were asked?
- Can you find room for one more thing, much less family devotions or being creative?
- Are you playing small, hidden in regrets?
This book will fill your life with renewed energy and passion for living. Through personal story and hilarious wit, Riley invites us all on a journey of checking our beliefs and making space to be reintroduced to the Father, so that we can boldly live lives from a place of confident rest. When we find Him in our story we can see that we are deeply known by God and liked by God.
When your identity in Him feels easy, the rest flows in grace.
So what are you waiting for? Let's un-Do This together!
"'Grand things happen on the car rides and with the friends.'
If you're like me, and you really think about it, many of your favorite moments have likely taken place in the car. On road trips or Target trips, with friends or alone, the car is our studio, our stage, our sanctuary. It is literally and figuratively our vehicle for exploring the world.
Let's un-Do This is a spontaneous invitation to a road-trip with your best friend. It's the trip you blurt "YES!" to, without overthinking, because you know these are the moments that change you, fill you, move you into being and doing. Each chapter of Riley's memoir feels like singing loudly and laughing wildly while exploring hidden places with your bestie. It is secret-sharing, tears together, and the healing that comes when a trusted friend can replace our lived-in lies with God's personal, intimate truth. Intimacy is the goal, and we can find that in these pages, investing ourselves in a shared story. Riley's voice is fully present from the driver's seat, whispering her own fragile story and declaring her delight, so that we might feel connected, known, forgiven, invited into our own resurrection. So that layers of our own hearts may be returned through divine friendship that leads us to Jesus." - Summer Morrell
