Hellenic Country Salad (horiatiki Salata)

The church at Ephesus faced a culture characterized by immorality. We, too, live in a culture tolerant of sexual immorality. It is popular to be open-minded to many types of sin, calling them personal choices or alternative lifestyles. But when the body of believers begins to tolerate sin in the church, it is lowering the church's standards and compromising its witness. Remember that God's approval is infinitely more important than the world's. Use God's Word, not what people around you are willing to accept, to set the standards for what is right or wrong.

on 3/26/98  NOTES : 6 servings/Serving size: 1/6 recipe To many, this
is known as  kalokerini salata, a Greek summer salad. For others, it is
a colorful  salad that may have first been tasted in a local Greek
restaurant. It  is wonderful and easy to make, especially when garden
vegetables are  at their prime. For best results, always use feta
cheese and Kalamata  olives.  Recipe by:
