2023 "BOOK OF THE YEAR" AWARD, SILVER MEDAL (North American Book Awards) 2023 EDITORS' PICK & "BOOK OF THE YEAR" AWARD, SEMI-FINALIST (Indies Today)>Racist. Hate-filled. Addicted. Poor. And finally... Christian. More than anything else, Trisha vowed she would never become a Christian. One day she realized the very thing she was running from might actually be her escape route, away all the rest. In 2014, while riding the New York City subway to a dead-end job, it dawned on the young woman that, despite all her best efforts, she had nevertheless become racist, herself. Following this profound realization, Trisha sought guidance from an older Christian mentor and received advice which was simple, though far from easy. After over a year of prayer, practice and failures too numerous to count, she felt God call her to the most unlikely place of all: a predominantly black seminary school in Harlem, New York. Trisha's time as the only white student in her class proved revelatory. But she soon learned that when you've danced with the devil for so long, you don't get to choose when the music stops. From becoming an atheist at age eleven in the rural Midwest, to attending a historically black seminary in Harlem, to bringing the gospel to convicts in America's most notorious prison, Pray For Them is a gritty, searingly honest coming-of-age memoir about a young American woman's struggle through the good and evil which reside in all of us, as well as her desperate search to find God... and herself.
