And what is the prescribed response? Is it to walk down an aisle? Is it to fill out a card, or to lift up a hand? Is it to make an appointment with a preacher, or to decide to be baptized and join the church? While any of those things may be involved, none of them necessarily is. The response of the Good News – the message that Paul preached and other Christians preached throughout the New Testament – is to repent and believe. Once we’ve heard the truth about our own sin and God’s holiness, about His love in sending Christ, and about Christ’s death and resurrection for our justification, then, as instructed by the first words of Jesus recorded in Mark’s gospel, our response is to “Repent and believe the good news!” (1:15).

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Butter a 6 to 8 inch square baking pan. Sift the flour with the baking soda
and salt onto a sheet of waxed paper. Scrape the vanilla beans and reserve
the pods and scrapings. Place the vanilla and the butter in a small
saucepan and heat until melted. Beat the egg with the brown sugar at medium
high speed until it resembles very loose meringue, about 3 minutes, then
add melted butter. Reduce the speed, then add the flour and mix until not
quite incorporated. Add the nuts and chopped chocolate; fold until well
blended. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan.
Bake until the top is dry and golden and a toothpick inserted in the center
emerges nearly dry, about 30 minutes.
Makes 15 bars.
