Mixing the Expression "A picture is worth a thousand words" with the Bible Verse from Habakkuk 2 verse 2 Then the Lord answered me and said"record the vision and inscribe it on tablets,that the one who reads it may run." is the the divine ingredient and inspiration for this book.Picture scripture that has truth and humor and picture scripture that has more of a serious truth perspective.All these pictures,with the Holy Spirits help will inspire truth from the word to help people run the race.So like A Chef preparing an amazing meal experience,enjoy the word in sketched picture like a spiritual feast of truth.

Of the multitude of crises prevalent in our modern world, one of the most widespread and destructive is the identity crisis. With hundreds of clashing cultures and religions flooding the planet, people are obviously searching for their real identity, but in actuality know not who they are! This book, based solely upon the Holy Bible, concerns our true identity, provides bona fide answers to the searching ones, and helps them locate themselves in life. Upon discerning themselves as they are at present, if they do not appreciate their current identity, the book then aids them in relocating themselves into a position that will make them truly free.

Justice is a great thing when someone has been wronged or violated. We want those guilty held accountable for the crime they have committed. In this book you will read true stories of real case files of Detective Ron Wallace. The stories are real but the names of the victim's and suspect have been changed to protect their identity. The street names have also been changed. Some of the cases in this book will touch your heart and then be filled with excitement. The book has been formatted into a case file format like a real case file. I have tried to bring my experiences as a Police Detective to book form and give the reader a feel of being a Detective. I hope this book may inspire readers to make sure that if someone they know or themselves become more diligent in keeping peace.

In Experience, Ron Briggs gives the reader a glimpse of the life he lived in rural upstate New York as a child growing up in the 1950s and 1960s. In Part One of the book, he shares some of the games and other activities in which he, his family, and contemporaries participated, in those rough and tumble times before modern sophistication changed the lives of everyday Americans. Experience illustrates some of the ways children of the time occupied themselves on a very meager budget, yet had rewarding outcomes and learned skills necessary to move into a bigger world. Part Two follows Ron through some of his harrowing life experiences that may easily have resulted in tragedy, but rather, the reader is treated to the lighter side of those events. He captures the gravity of each situation and celebrates the eventual outcome.

Nothing else comes so I set the notebook beside me. What else is here? I ask myself and listen. This section of stream purls and riffles amid small stones. What word might be made for what I hear . . . Above the Waterfall is the story of Sheriff Les Clary. A man on the verge of retirement, he is plunged into deep and dangerous waters by one final case. A case that will draw him to the lyrical beauty of his surroundings and, in doing so, force him to come to terms with his own past. Echoing the heartbreaking beauty of William Faulkner and the spiritual isolation of Michel Faber, Above the Waterfall is as poetic as it is haunting.
