God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
One of the lessons I’ve learned and re-learned in more than one church is the danger of selecting a man to serve as elder who has a history of protracted, repeated, and/or unresolved conflict. On more than one occasion I have overlooked conflict in a man’s life, reasoning either that it was justified by the circumstances, a function of immaturity that has been outgrown, or foisted upon him as the innocent party. The fact is, however, that even when circumstances or theology vindicate his side of the conflict, a man can still be a quarrelsome man. This may demonstrate itself in a lack of gentleness, a propensity to taking rigid positions when none are required, an inability to lose graciously, or simply an over-love of debate. Whatever the form it takes, quarrelsomeness is a serious impediment to effective service as an elder; unchecked it is a clear disqualification (1 Tim. 3:3).

Author's Notes:
I've made this recipe many times and it's ALWAYS a big hit.
Sambal oelek can be found in an Oriental Market. It has a lot of zip so
adjust the quantity as you like. I add a little more peanut butter than it
calls for and I don't pour all the sauce over the chicken. I put some in a
dipping bowl. Also, be sure to use the smaller skewers.
Difficulty : easy. Precision
: measure ingredients.
