Bruschetta Of Roasted Vegetables

In the Minneapolis Star Tribune is an entire section for sports. Can you believe an entire section of the newspaper for sports and not one column for God? Not one column is written about the Maker of the universe who upholds the whole Coles Media industry by the power of his word. Not one minute for God on prime-time news. In twelve years of public education, not one hour relates to God, and not one page in Newsweek or Time. What about evangelicals? I've been to church growth seminars where God is not once mentioned. I've been to lectures and talks on pastoral issues where he is not so much as alluded to. I have read strategies for every kind of recovery under the sun where God is not there. I have talked to students in seminaries who tell me of manifold, practical courses where God is peripheral at best. I have recently read mission statements of major evangelical organizations where neither Christ nor God is even mentioned.

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oveon to 240Ã¸C/47Ã¸F/gas mark 8 or have ready a very hot
grill.  Toast one side of the bread. Sprinkle the other side of each
slice  with olvie oil. Rub with the cut bulb of garlic.  Spread
prepared vegetables on a roasting tray in a single layer.  Sprinkle
with olive oil and season generously. Roast or grill until  golden with
blackened edges.  Grate the cheese.  Whisk the dressing ingredients
together and taste. Put all the  prepared ingredients for the salad in
a large bowl with the dressing  and toss lightly; the peach juices will
mingle with the dressing to  give a very refreshing salad just right
for outdoor eating.  Pile the slices of bread on the oiled side with
the vegetables. Add  the olives and then the oregano leaves. Spinkle
with the cheese and  then return to the oven or grill to melt the
cheese and char the  vegetables.  Serve the brushette with salad.
