About Amy

Writer of Teachings from the Trail, spiritual lessons learned from on old gelding named Ernie. I began writing these short lessons as God showed me how things that happen with my horse could teach me truths about Him, His Word and living a Christian life. These devotions have been a delight to write as God draws near to me in the process. I've shared them with Hope & Horses and readers of The Line Rider, a publication of the Fellowship of Christian Cowboys. God's given me the gift of writing and spiritual insights -- now I want to share these devotions with anyone who may grow from them. Please pass along a link to this site. I'd love your comments.
