Best-selling author - World and National Champion Trainer and Breeder
Horses are magical, athletic, spiritual, and sometimes frustrating. Do you want a better relationship with your horse or have a horse-crazy person in your life? Learn how horses think, love, scheme, and reveal our true selves. You can't fool a horse and you can't fool God.
Why is the love of horses so often a life-long passion? In the entire world, horses hold a unique place in relationship with man and woman, boy and girl. Author and clinician Lynn Baber offers readers a glimpse into the show pen, training arena, and birthing barn. Real stories mix with allegory and inspiration to help readers understand precisely what it is about horses that captures our hearts.
Like all other animals, horses never fell from grace. They continue to live in close connection to their Creator. Give a horse the opportunity and it will share its lessons, heart, power, and spirit with you. Horses teach us about simplicity, authenticity, and commitment. After years specializing in working with stallions, Lynn Baber learned that the only way to get a 1500-pound hairy mass of testosterone to offer his obedience and loyalty is to earn it. The secret is simplicity and never breaking a promise.
Two gray quarter horses, Bo and Swizzle, offered the author the gift of commitment that would change her life. Relationship with horses helps people better understand relationship with God the Father. Sometimes it works in the opposite way, when a horse professional discovers that every truth learned over a lifetime with horses is found in the Gospels.
From the spiritual to the practical, "Amazing Grays, Amazing Grace" is a journey of love. It will lead readers to a destination that delivers a depth of understanding for the way horses think, live, and love to the even greater knowledge of God's grace in their lives.
