The rich etymology of “discipline” suggests a conscious divestment of all encumbrances, and then a determined investment of all one’s energies. Just as ancient athletes discarded everything and competed gumnos (naked), so must the disciplined Christian man divest himself of every association, habit, and tendency which impedes godliness. Then, with this lean spiritual nakedness accomplished, he must invest all his energy and sweat in the pursuit of godliness.

INSTRUCTIONS

Combine the flour, pecans, oregano, cumin, thyme, cayenne and salt to taste

piece first in the butter, then in the flour mixture to coat well. Melt 3
tbsp of the remaining butter in a large skllet over medium heat. Cook the
chicken in batches, until pieces are browned on all sides and cooked
through. Remove pieces from the pan when done and keep warm. Add more of
the butter as needed. The cooked chicken can be stored covered in the
refrigerator. Before serving, heat the chicken, wrapped in foil, at 350 for
10 minutes or heat in the microwave.
Serve the chicken morsels with toothpicks and your favorite mustard for
dipping.
NOTES : These chicken pieces are perfect party food because they can be
made in advance and reheated before serving. Serve with a variety of
dipping mustards and plenty of cold beer.
