From the author of Hope Rising, comes a collection of more than twenty inspiring, true stories from the Ranch of Rescued Dreams, where horses and children help to heal each other.  Hope is like the stars--always there, yet shining brightest in the blackest of nights. It is like the dawn, always rising anew. Hope is for everyone, and that includes you. This collection of more than twenty true stories unveils the heart of true strength and the character of genuine courage. Experience for yourself the kind of love and hope that change a person from the inside out. Because sometimes, just believing in someone is enough for them to start believing in themselves. It's the galvanizing truth that no matter how deep your pain...God's love exceeds it still. "During the darkest days I'd ever known, I was introduced to the unconditional love of a little horse and a merciful God, and my life has never been the same," says author Kim Meeder. Her book proves that hope is not only for us to keep, but also to give because sometimes just believing in someone is enough for them to start believing in themselves.… (more)

Sequel to "Hope Rising." Stories of triumph from the ranch of rescued dreams–an organization that rescues abused and dying horses and pairs them with children in need.

Just as in "Hope Rising", many of these stories made me cry.

I was disappointed by a few errors that should have been caught by an editor, and there were a couple of sentences that I found confusing. I don't remember having those issues with the previous book.

But, same as the first, it's filled with wonderful stories and I enjoyed it. ( )

An excellent book about Kim and her husband who took land that wouldn't even grow trees and turned it into a ranch for children who have physical and emotional scars to overcome, amazingly enough, the horses they use at the ranch have also been emotionally and physically abused. By putting kids and horses together they both seem to heal. This book is the stories about the ranch and all that has happened there. Very uplifting, a must-read book.

I LOVED this book! Kim is able to take each circumstance that happens to one of her beloved rescued horses or to a broken child needing to be rescued and relate it in such a way that shows you her great depth of compassion and wisdom. This book is full of inspiration and encouragement. I love the way Kim can tell a story. This is an amazing book of hope and restoration and evidence of how much God cares for each of us and is involved in our lives. You can laugh with her in the high mountain experiences and cry with her at the lowest valley times, but either way, you will be blessed. ( )
