How I Learned to Let God Drive the Bus
A Message from John Davis
I’m reaching out today to share something deeply personal with you—something that has been nearly 20 years in the making.
In 2006, I established the Love Thy Neighbor Foundation, Inc. in honor of my mother, a remarkable woman whose generosity and love for others left a lasting impression on my life. Since then, I have contributed to the foundation annually and I intend to continue supporting its work for the rest of my life.
The mission of Love Thy Neighbor Foundation is simple but vital: to help improve the lives of children, teens, and young adults in our local community.
That commitment inspired me to write my autobiography:
How I Learned to Let God Drive the Bus
This book is a story of surrender—about turning scars into service, tears into testimony, and unexpected detours into divine direction. I don’t preach in these pages; instead, I simply open the door to my life and invite you inside to experience the struggles, heartbreak, laughter, and ultimate success that came from learning to hand God the keys.
If you have ever felt too broken, too labeled, or too ordinary to be used by God, I hope you will see a piece of yourself in my story. From a frightened boy on Vine Street in Batavia to places I never imagined, looking back shows me I was never traveling alone.
That is ultimately the message of this book: sometimes the greatest change in our lives begins when we stop trying to control every turn and trust God with the road ahead.
I am now accepting preorders, and I would be honored by your support. 100% of the proceeds will go directly to the Love Thy Neighbor Foundation. For a contribution of $30 or more, I will personally send you a signed hardcover copy (shipping included) or you can pick it up at the office.

This is more than an invitation to preorder a book—it is an opportunity to join me in empowering young people in our community who need someone to believe in them.
Thank you for your time, support, and prayers.
With gratitude, Love Thy Neighbor Foundation, Inc.
Helping children, teens, and young adults build a brighter future.
