David Huebner - 2017
    Forty years earlier, Buster and a college buddy looked for old Spanish gold in this same area of southwestern Colorado. It started when Ray, his buddy, discovered some pages of an old diary interleaved in the pages of an equally old Bible. He spoke Spanish and when he read the text, it described the escape of two Spanish miners from an Indian massacre in the mountains north of what is now Durango. Buster and his pal spent the better part of two weeks looking for the mine and smelter described in the diary. They found a gold encrusted crucible, but not the smelter. Nor could they locate the stash of gold ingots the diary's author said they had to leave behind to escape the Indian attack. When Buster's friend dies, his daughter sends Buster the bone ash crucible. It stirs found memories and Buster has no trouble convincing Evan to take some time and go treasure hunting with him. Forty years previous, Buster and his pal were on a tight budget. This trip Evan and Buster go first class with state-of-the-art metal detectors, GPS units, a string of horses, and first class food. All starts well, but things become complicated fast when Evan finds a body floating in the West Dolores River.

Anointed


Greg S. Baker - 2018
    “Let the king know. Your servant kept his father’s sheep. There came a lion and a bear and took a lamb out of the flock. And when the lion arose against me, I caught the lion by his beard, and smote him, and slew him. I also slew the bear, my lord. This uncircumcised Philistine will be as one of them, seeing he has defied the armies of the living God. The LORD God that delivered me out of the paw of the lion and out of the paw of the bear, He will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine.”The king’s eyes closed. “I fear to send you, my son. I fear what the giant will do to you. You have yet to witness his great strength.” He hesitated. “But I do believe the LORD is with you. I pray that He is. Our honor, our nation, our lives rest upon you, my servant. Go, and Jehovah be with you.”David left the tent, but only Jonathan followed him. The king’s son walked over to a pole that bore a flag of challenge. It had lain unused on the ground for these past forty days, but now Jonathan hoisted it high and slammed the butt hard into the earth to steady it. The red flag waved defiantly in the small breeze of the late afternoon.A roar of approval rose from the ranks of Hebrew soldiers, and from the valley below, Goliath beheld the challenge flag and beat upon his breastplate in pleased battle lust. He shouted, “Come then! Send me a man that we may fight!”David took a deep breath, eyeing the monstrous giant. Then he bounded down the slope to meet his fate and fulfill the duty of his anointing.
