We learn from Paul in Ephesians 5:31-32 that, from the beginning, manhood and womanhood existed to represent or dramatize God’s relation to His people and then Christ’s relation to His bride, the church. In this drama, the man represents God or Christ and is to love his wife as Christ loved the church. The woman represents God’s people or the church. And sexual union in the covenant of marriage represents pure, undefiled, intense heart-worship. That is, God means for the beauty of worship to be dramatized in the right ordering of our sexual lives.

INGREDIENTS

1	qt	Chicken stock,; heated
2	tb	Olive oil
2	tb	Finely-minced onions
1/2	lb	Arborio rice
2	tb	Butter
2	tb	Heavy cream
1	tb	Chopped chives

		Truffle oil,; for drizzling

INSTRUCTIONS

Heat chicken broth to simmering in a small saucepan and leave on very low
heat. In a heavy- based, wide saucepan heat olive oil, add onions and cook~
until golden over medium heat. Add rice and stir to coat each and every
grain with oil. Begin by adding 1 cup of hot stock, stirring with a wooden
spoon to mix. Allow this liquid to be absorbed, then add 1/2 cup stock,
stirring until evaporated. Continue to add broth by 1/2 cupfuls, stirring
after each addition. Continue until rice begins to soften. Last addition of
stock should just absorb into rice, leaving it slightly tight. Stirring
quickly with a wooden spoon, add butter and cream . Risotto will become
very creamy. Stir in herbs and cheese. Remove from heat and adjust
seasoning to taste. Serve topped with freshly-grated cheese and drizzle
with truffle oil, if using.
