Basil And Roasted Red Pepper Shrimp Stir-fry

But it is far more common for the evangelical preacher to edit God’s Word: 1. By removing the text from its context, and using it to say what-ever the preacher likes, 2. By moralizing the text, so that it is reduced to an ethical maxim that ﬁts any religion, 3. By using the text to promote hobby-horses, and 4. By dogmatic insistence that the text says things it does not truly say. This homiletical hocus-pocus has subtle roots such as the desire to be clever and popular or synthetically relevant or intellectually respectable or to make the gospel more acceptable. But most often God’s Word gets watered down by the preacher’s laziness. He simply will not do the hard work to engage and preach a text in its context.

I did double the recipe except for the basil and the oil.  In a large
skillet, heat 2 tsp. canola oil over medium heat. Add 2  cloves garlic,
chopped, and 1 5-oz. jar roasted red peppers packed in  water, sliced
with their liquid, and cook for 5 minutes. Add 1 cup  snow peas and 6
large shrimp and cook over medium high meat for 3 to  4 minutes,
stirring occasionally. Add 8 large basil leaves, chopped,  and 1/8 tsp.
each salt and black pepper. Serve over 1/2 cup cooked  brown rice.
