Don Chaney’s Cheesecake

The most fundamental task of a mother and father is to show God to the children. Children know their parents before they know God. This is a huge responsibility and should cause every parent to be desperate for God-like transformation. The children will have years of exposure to what the universe is like before they know there is a universe. They will experience the kind of authority there is in the universe and the kind of justice there is in the universe and the kind of love there is in the universe before they meet the God of authority and justice and love who created and rules the universe. Children are absorbing from dad his strength and leadership and protection and justice and love; and they are absorbing from mom her care and nurture and warmth and intimacy and justice and love – and, of course, all these overlap.

original creation of a  co-worker, Don Chaney. I consider myself a
cheesecake gourmet, and I  rate this recipe as 8.5 out of 10 (However,
there are no 10s). The  recipe is so simple, I almost feel guilty
serving it.    Variations: Crush some walnuts into the crust. Pour a
can of cherry  or blueberry pie filling over the chilled cake, then
chill again. Put  about 2-3 T of your favorite liqueur into the cake
filling.  : Difficulty:  easy to moderate.  : Time:  10 minutes
