God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
The very concept of “the weekend” is unbiblical. It turns Sunday into a second Saturday. Home Depot may gain, but we lose. It turns Sunday into the day we catch up on the stuff we were too lazy or disorganized to do on Saturday. It also turns Sunday into a day to ramp up for work or school on Monday. It hollows out not only Sunday but our whole week, because it marginalizes God and church and sermons and all the other vital things that happen in our lives only when we make the vital things also the central things. If we accept the world’s concept of “the weekend,” we inevitably end up “fitting God in” rather than centering the practical reality of our every week around Him. We trivialize Him, even as we allow secondary things to hijack the sacred place of centrality, we live soul-exhausted lives, and then we wonder why God isn’t more real to us, why church isn’t “working” for us, why we’re grumpy, and so forth.

INSTRUCTIONS
In a shallow dish, combine all the marinade ingredients and add the cubed
caribou. Cover and leave in a cool place for 24 hours. Remove the meat
cubes from the marinade. Pat dry and roll in a little flour. Strain the
marinade and reserve.
Cut the peppers in half and remove seeds. Chop the peppers into cubes. Chop
the onion and mince the garlic. Cut the celery into 1/2 inch slices. Heat
the oil in a large frying pan, and brown the caribou quickly. Remove it,
then add the chopped vegetables to the oil and saute quickly; but do not
allow to brown.
Put the caribou and fried vegetables into a flameproof casserole. Add the
tomatoes, roughly chopped, and the tomato paste.
Sprinkle the paprika, caraway seeds, and salt and pepper to taste on to the
contents of the casserole, and pour in the marinade liquid. Stir well and
bring almost to boiling. Cover. Turn down the heat and simmer gently on top
of the stove for 1 1/2-2 hours.
25 minutes before the goulash is ready, add the potatoes, peeled and cubed.
Just before serving, add the yoghurt/sour cream and stir. Taste for
seasoning: more paprika or caraway may be added if liked.
