Let’s confess our sins to one another and pray for one another. No one grows in isolation. We grow in safe community. Sadly, such an experience is rare in our churches. It should be common among us gospel people. It should be our lifestyle. We should be obvious, even scandalous, as friends of sinners. But so often, someone must break the ice. I see no revival in our future without a new culture of confession. Personally, I have found a good way to measure my own honesty is the level of my embarrassment. If I’m not embarrassed by my confession, I’m still holding out. But it is freeing to come clean with a brother or sister and receive the ministry of prayer (James 5:16).

INGREDIENTS

3/4	c	Milk
1/4	c	Butter, melted
1		Egg
1 3/4	c	Flour, all-purpose
1/3	c	Brown sugar, packed
2 1/2	ts	Baking powder
3/4	ts	Salt
1/2	c	Chocolate chips, semisweet
1/2	c	Walnuts, chopped

INSTRUCTIONS

Heat oven to 400 degrees F.; line 12 medium muffin cups with paper baking
cups or grease bottoms only of muffin cups.
Beat milk, margarine and egg.  Stir in remaining ingredients, all at once,
just until flour is moistened (batter will be lumpy). Fill muffin cups
about 2/3 full. Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.
Her notes:
*  I don't use paper baking cups. I spray with Pam only the bottoms of the
muffin depressions in the pan. I always increase the amount of chocolate
chips and nuts a little because I like them and I usually think recipes are
chintzy with them.
*  Use a fork to loosen them and tip them up in the pan as soon as they
come out of the oven. That way you'll get a crisper crust on the bottom and
sides.
