For years, as Chairman of the Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission, Billy Frank Jr. wrote a column called Being Frank.

From September 1986 to May 2014, these columns ran in NWIFC publications and newspapers across the Pacific Northwest. His words document the challenges that tribes faced as they exercised their treaty rights, fought to responsibly manage fisheries, and raised their voices against the loss of salmon habitat.

This book brings together for the first time every Being Frank column Billy wrote.

Although there is nothing sweeter than the Gospel, there is much more sweetness to be enjoyed. Few Christians seem to experience the transformation they hoped for, and often burn out too early. This is because we cannot escape the interpretation war each day over our identity. What if we are ruled by a lie more than the truth about who we are? What if condemnation has been their primary motivation, and has functioned for us more than grace, for too many years?

What if, on the front end, we already have what we try so hard to obtain? Dr. Bob Smart walks us through the practical steps...

Although there is nothing sweeter than the Gospel, there is more sweetness to be enjoyed after one's conversion to Christ. Many Christians fail to experience transformation in the discovery of God's call on their lives in the areas of work, family, and service. Even the idea of calling has been relegated to full-time vocational service, leaving out the other 90% of God's people. What if we could overcome the major obstacles to joyful fulfillment in our callings to Christ? What about the importance of being called to an ordinary place that counts for eternity?

What if we begin to live...

In this book, Dr. Bob Smart helps those in midlife discover their God-given aim for Christ so that their last season of spiritual formation is a rich legacy from Christ.

How shall we disciple those past sixty years old? This book is for those in their final season of spiritual formation. Dr. Bob Smart gives God’s perspective on the treasury Christ has given Christians in their final lap. In this book, the reader will discover how to give their message in the form of benedictions, final wills, and testaments.

The Christian will learn how to come to the river of death and how to cross over it in a way that says “to die is gain.” There are many touching stories to encourage the Christian to finish well.

The significant characteristics that distinguish Smart s prose letters from his poetry, Betty Rizzo and Robert Mahony note, are that his letters were requests for assistance while his verses were bequests, gifts in which he set great store. Indeed, it was Smart s lifelong conviction that he was a poet of major importance.

As Smart biographer Karina Williamson notes, "The splendidly informative and vivaciously written...
