A healthy church has a pervasive concern with church growth – not simply growing numbers but growing members. A church full of growing Christians is the kind of church growth I want as a pastor. Some today seem to think that one can be a “baby Christian” for a whole lifetime. Growth is seen to be an optional extra for particularly zealous disciples. But be very careful about taking that line of thought. Growth is a sign of life. Growing trees are living trees, and growing animals are living animals. When something stops growing, it dies.

INSTRUCTIONS

Notes from Natalie:
I used soy milk instead of milk
I used 1 TB oil and 2 TB applesauce instead of 3 TB oil
I used half dried and half fresh cranberries
I added 1/4 cup chopped walnuts to the recipe
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Generously grease 12 large (2-3/4-inch) muffin
cups.
In a large microsafe measure, heat milk and oil until very warm, 60 to 90
seconds. Stir in multigrain cereal; let stand 10 to 15 minutes.
In a large bowl, mix together flour, salt, baking powder and mace.
Stir vanilla, brown sugar and egg into cereal mixture. Add to flour
mixture; stir until almost moistened. Stir in cranberries, but do not
overbeat.
Scoop into muffin tins. Sprinkle with raw or colored sugar. Bake in lower
third of oven for 15 minutes or until done. Let cool in pans for 5 to 8
minutes, then remove to racks to cool completely.
Yield: 12 muffins.
Note: If using fresh or frozen-and-thawed cranberries, use 2 cups
cranberries and increase sugar to 1 cup.
Note: If you do not have mace, you can use nutmeg and/or cinnamon.
