Jacki Caskey, I’m a wife and a mother to 4 kids. Its important to know that God has been intertwining my story with horses from the very beginning. I am adopted and the sole reason I ended up with the family I did, was horses. God used horses to shape my life dramatically from the start. I grew up trail riding horses with my family, with no real formal training, just jumping on in the saddle or bareback and heading out on the trail. Once I was grown and finding my own way, horses faded from my story, and life and marriage and kids happened. I wasn’t sure if I would ever be lucky enough to get own horses again. After a couple of years on the mission field in Costa Rica, God landed us in Denver. As we settled a new life and tried to build community, my oldest, Norah, wanted to take horseback riding lessons. I was thrilled and made a quick promise, unsure if I could really keep it. I told Norah if she kept up lessons for 3 years, we would buy her a horse, but she had to be serious about lessons. Covid hit and all the rest joined in the horseback riding fun, and low and behold, Norah remembered that promise I gave 3 years prior. And then came Pearl...and our whole world changed. God used Pearl to draw me to Him in ways that I didn’t see coming. This little painted horse trotted into my life and gave me a whole new perspective, one that I want to share with whoever will listen. God has been faithful and has weaved horses back into my life and my family’s life when I didn’t think it was possible. My hope is to share God with others through the transformative hope of horsemanship
