It was imperative that his soul be saved from hell. If he didn't return, Bill knew that he would be shunned and excommunicated. What he hadn't expected, and what he struggled to accept, was discovering the deception and deceit perpetuated by the Amish for generations.LETTING GO OF THE REINS offers a glimpse into the reclusive Amish as told from the point of view of both Bill and his friend and co-worker, Karrie, as well as the unprecedented voice of the Amish themselves.
