God's WarriorFellow priests called his ministry "just short of a miracle." A superior castigated him as "an adventurer," Apaches and migrant Mexicans claimed him "one of us." To his fellow soldiers he was "a man's man." Of himself he chuckled, "I've been in mischief all my life." He was Father Albert Braun, OFM, in turn mule headed, explosive, or penitent.

Fellow priests called his ministry "just short of a miracle." A superior castigated him as "an adventurer," Apaches and migrant Mexicans claimed him "one of us." To his fellow soldiers he was "a man's man." Of himself he chuckled, "I've been in mischief all my life." He was Father Albert Braun, OFM, in turn mule-headed, explosive, or penitent. Vigorously outspoken, he once charged a group of august bishops to "get off your butts and out among the people." His sense of duty was profound, his humor crusty. He arrived in New Mexico as missionary to the Mescalero Apaches just after Pancho Villa's raid, was a highly decorated chaplain in both World Wars, and after World War II he participated in the top-secret birth of the first hydrogen bomb on a south Pacific atoll. Drawing on archival and military records, letters, memoirs, and interviews, Dorothy Cave chronicles the amazing life of this last of the frontier priests from his birth in the lusty, brawling California of 1889, to his death and burial in 1983 in the church he built for his beloved Mescaleros. This book is at once a biography and a kaleidoscopic history of the tumultuous times in which he lived. From it there emerges the inspiring saga of a man who changed thousands of lives with faith, humor, dedication, and a generous dash of pure hard-headed cussedness. Dorothy Cave spent much of her childhood exploring with her geologist father the isolated villages and mountains of northern New Mexico, a practice she continues today. Although her formal education was at Agnes Scott College and the Universities of Colorado and Wyoming, she feels her true education has come from these remote but rapidly vanishing hamlets and pueblos and from the soil-rooted wisdom of those who live in them. Cave has traveled widely, danced with the Atlanta Ballet, acted, and taught. She is the author of two histories: "Beyond Courage," which won the New Mexico Presswomen's Zia Award, and "Four Trails to Valor," both from Sunstone Press. Her two novels, "Mountains of the Blue Stone" and "Song on a Blue Guitar" were also published by Sunstone Press. Cave served as historical consultant for two documentary films: "Colors of Courage," produced by Scott Henry and E. Anthony Martinez for the University of New Mexico's Center for Regional Studies; and for Aaron Wilson's award-winning "A New Mexico Story," based largely on her "Beyond Courage." She appears in both films as narrator/commentator. "Beyond Courage" also inspired composer Steven Melillo's musical opus of the same title, acclaimed on two continents.Binding Type: Paperback

Useful Bible for Taking Notes or Writing Out Prayers in Response All in an Attractive Format
Format: Leather Bound
First off, I won’t be reviewing and evaluating “the Bible”, because the Bible is supposed to evaluate you, confront you, call you, and claim you for God. So, whether you read this edition or another, let God’s Word teach, woo, and draw you to Him!
As for this edition of the ESV, as some have noted, the font is on the smaller size, but still readable for most (your results may vary!). As it is a journaling Bible, on each page is a wide lined section for you to take study notes or sermon notes, make comments, write out prayers in response or whatever use you want to make of it. If you are new to God’s Word, the publishers have included some helps in the introductory matter, including a page on ‘Why Read the Bible?’ and several pages on ‘What the Bible says about...’, covering various topics and where to find them in Scripture. There are introductions for both the Old Testament and the New Testament. And after the end of the Scripture texts (Revelation), the publishers have also included some helpful resources like, ‘God’s Plan to Save You’, ‘Introductions to each book of the Bible’ and a plan to read through the Bible in a year. The leather has a very nice feel to it and (I hope) will wear and age well. The strap is new for me, but it was pretty easy to use to keep the Bible closed. (Maybe it’s just me, but it’s a little odd having such a long strap hang while I’m reading it!). There is also a leather loop inside to keep a pen handy for your note taking and journaling. By the way, the size is a little unique, as it is almost square, so it might be an awkward carry, and I would guess for women that it might only fit in a really large purse. Overall, if you want a Bible to use for more in-depth study and to take notes on what you find, this might be a good choice for you.

Nice quality ESV 2 column Bible
Format: Leather Bound
Nice soft cover. It is smaller than the hardcover ESV journaling bible I have, which isn't necessarily a problem. This is also a two column bible. The font is 7pt, so it is fairly small. It's also fairly squarish at about 6.5x7.5inches. The strap comes separate, which is nice because if you don't want to have to tie and untie your Bible every time you want to open it, you can just leave it off. There is only one ribbon, but I honestly tend to use bookmarks more than ribbons anyway. There is also a pen loop inside to hold a normal-sized pen (probably won't fit a large one)
Content
- Ownership page - not dedication, just this Bible belongs to
- An invitation to the journaling Bible
- Copyright page - printed in China, 2001 version
- Contents
- Why Read the Bible - 1 page
- What the Bible Says About - 5.5 pages giving scripture references for various topics
- Preface - Standard ESV Preface
- Explanation of Features - short 1-page note about things like textual footnotes and cross-reference footnotes
- The Old Testament - 2 page introduction followed by the text
- The New Testament - 2 page introduction followed by the text
- Plan of Salvation - just over 3 pages
- Introductions to the Books of the Old Testament - It seems weird that they are at the end and not with the actual books. There are about 5 introductions per page, so they are really short
- Introductions to the Books of the New Testament - Same note as above. Is it really an introduction if it is at the end?
- Through the Bible in a Year Reading Plan - Daily dated reading plan that includes OT, Psalms, and NT each day. It will have you read through the OT once, Psalms twice, and NT twice

Works great, easy to assemble.
Size: 2 Tier-9.5''Wx10.5''Dx9.5''H
I bought this to try and contain our cabinet clutter. It works really well. Was easy to assemble.
I use it on the countertop instead of inside of the cabinets. Looks nice enough to sit out.
Will buy 1 more in the coming days.
The storage areas pull out, makes for easy access.

Awesome Spice Rack!
Size: 2 Tier-13.5''Wx10.5''Dx9.5''H
This works perfectly. I bought two as I have a lot of spices. Do need to remember that the height needed for unit is 9 inches, but with full size spice jars on top rack, you need at least 11 inches. Otherwise it works great. Smooth movement of the drawers. Very sturdy and stable.
