Name: Corn Fritters, Deep Fried
Ingredients: 1 Batch "Corn Bread" recipe

We are all starved for the glory of God, not self. No one goes to the Grand Canyon to increase self-esteem. Why do we go? Because there is greater healing for the soul in beholding splendor than there is in beholding self. Indeed, what could be more ludicrous in a vast and glorious universe like this than a human being, on the speck called earth, standing in front of a mirror trying to find significance in his own self-image? It is a great sadness that this is the gospel of the modern world. The Christian Gospel is about 'the glory of Christ,' not about me. And when it is—in some measure—about me, it is not about my being made much of by God, but about God mercifully enabling me to enjoy making much of Him forever.

Batch "Corn Bread" recipe

INSTRUCTIONS

I have eaten both pan-fried and deep-fried corn fritters, and I like them
both. I will not become involved in the argument as to which is more
authentic. I think it simply depends on what your mother used to make.
Use the Corn Bread batter (see recipe) and drop walnut-sized balls of
same into deep fat. Have the fat at 375&deg; and cook the fritters until they
are very light golden brown. Drain on paper towels and serve with honey for
dinner. If the fat is hot, you should not produce greasy fritters.

“A state of mind that sees God in everything is evidence of growth in grace and a thankful heart. #Charles Finney”

Church attendance is infected with a malaise of conditional loyalty which has produced an army of ecclesiastical hitchhikers. The hitchhiker's thumb says, 'You buy the car, pay for repairs and upkeep and insurance, fill the car with gas – and I'll ride with you. But if you have an accident, you are on your own! And I'll probably sue.' So it is with the credo of so many of today's church attenders: 'You go to the meetings and serve on the boards and committees, you grapple with the issues and do the work of the church and pay the bills – and I'll come along for the ride. But if things do not suit me, I'll complain and probably bail out-my thumb is always out for a better ride.'
