“Texas Rein” is a wonderful family movie that shows God doing a new thing and working everything out for the good in the end. Cassie Roberts (Beth Gouthro) lives in Virginia with her young son, Sam (Grayson Reed). Her boyfriend, Garrison (Ashley Smith), is pressuring her to move in with him. But then Cassie receives a call that her father, Marvin (Don Hartman), is having health issues, so she travels with Sam back home to Texas. Once she arrives, she and her dad have tension between them about the way she left in the past and how she no longer uses her talent to ride horses. While working on their relationship, Cassie meets Chase Eversoll (Greg Perrow), her father’s horse trainer, and Chase takes a liking to Cassie. Marvin believes Chase to be the perfect man for his daughter, due to his down-to-earth approach to life, his Christian faith, and his solid background with horses. But can Cassie leave her life in Virginia behind? And will her father get to ride “Splash,” a wonderful horse being prepared to compete?
The film features Erin Bethea (“Fireproof”) playing a wacky and funny character, Mandi Kesterson. Although Cassie questions why God allows some of the things He does, she sees God at work in the lives of those around her, including her father and Chase. The film features themes of sacrifice, love and forgiveness. The main biblical theme comes from Romans 8:28, that all things work together for good. We are pleased to award it our “Faith-Friendly” Seal for ages 12-plus. “Texas Rein” will “reign” you in.
