Membership in a local church does not mean that you are part of the body of Christ. Without Christ, church membership means nothing. Hell is filled with people who were church members. Before you respond to the challenge of church membership, you must make sure you know Jesus Christ, who is “head over all things to the church” (Ephesians 1:22). Your greatest need in life is not to be on the membership roll of a church; it is to be made right with God by the One who died for the church, who created the church, who loves the church, and who is returning someday for His true church.

INSTRUCTIONS

This is a very high-class use of the formerly low-class mudbug. It is
wonderful, isn't it, how peasant dishes become expensive classics once the
rest of the culture catches on to the glories of inventing dishes out of
sheer necessity? We have certainly gone beyond necessity in this one, since
it is a blend of the freshwater crawfish and a very fancy and rich sauce. I
love this one, too.
Heat a 2-quart soup pot, add the butter and the onion, and saut. until
the onion is clear. Stir in the flour and cook for a few minutes to form a
roux. Do not let it darken. Add the fish stock, stirring carefully, and
bring the whole to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer 15 minutes, stirring
until it thickens. Combine the cream, egg, and 1/2 cup of the hot stock and
whip together. Stir this mixture back into the pot. Turn the heat to low
and add the remaining ingredients, except the crawfish, rice, and parsley.
Keep warm until you are about to serve. Then stir in the crawfish, heat for
a moment, and serve over the rice with a parsley garnish.
I enjoy a glass of cold dry white wine and a green salad with my Newburg.
Anything else would be too rich.
