Name: Apple Crisp

Do you believe? 'I believe,' says one, and he begins to repeat what they call the 'Apostles’ Creed.' Hold your tongue, sir! That matters not; the devil believes that, perhaps more intelligently than you do; he believes and trembles. That kind of believing saves no man. You may believe the most orthodox creed in Christendom, and perish. Do you trust - for that is the cream of the word 'believe' - do you trust in Jesus? Do you lean your whole weight on Him? Have you that faith which the Puritans used to call 'recumbency' or 'leaning'? This is the faith that saves - faith that falls back into the arms of Jesus, a faith that drops from its own hanging-place into those mighty arms.

INSTRUCTIONS

(From a long-lost acquaintance)
Grease and 8 inch cake pan. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Use lemon juice
while cutting the apples to prevent browning from oxidation.
Tightly layer the apples into pan.
Sift the flour, sugar, cinnamon and salt. Cut in the butter. Sprinkle it on
the apples, trying to seal the edges.
Bake about 1 hour; serve warm or at room temperature with whipped cream,
ice cream, or lemon sorbet. I like to serve candied or crystalized ginger
with the crisp.

A Message from our Provider:

“Jesus: to know him is to love him”

All children, like their parents before them, are rooted in fallen Adam (see Rom. 5:12). The perfect, infallible portrait of every soul who has ever lived was painted by Paul in Romans 3:10-11: “None is righteous, no, not one; no one understands; no one seeks for God.” Sin is so rooted in us that every part of the human personality is tainted. This, of course, doesn’t mean that all people are as bad as they can be or that they don’t do good things (see Luke 11:13). But it does mean that apart from God’s grace and the God-ordained graces of human discipline, children will naturally gravitate to sin – quite apart from the tricks of the devil or their “corrupt” little friends (Kent and Barbara Hughes).
