The most basic truths of our faith have fallen victim to [pragmatic], self-centered theology. Many modern-day evangelists have reduced the gospel message to little more than a formula by which people can live a happy and more fulfilling life. Sin is now defined by how it affects man, not how it dishonors God. Salvation is often presented as a means of receiving what Christ offers without obeying what He commands. The focus has shifted from God’s glory to man’s benefit. The gospel of persevering faith has given way to a kind of religious hedonism. Jesus, contemporary theology implies, is your ticket to avoiding all of life’s pains and experiencing all of life’s pleasures.

INSTRUCTIONS

There are many New Mexicans who do not feel Christmas is complete without
several bowls of posole complemented with a fiery red sauce. Traditionally
made with ground or cubed pork this version made with chicken makes a
terrific low fat dish for a holiday buffet. Heat the oil in a heavy frying
pan and saute' the onion, garlic, cubed chicken and red chile, stirring
occasionally, until the chicken is lightly browned. Add the oregano, cumin
and bay leaves. Pour the wine and water into the pan, cover and cook for 30
minutes. Put the hominy (with the liquid) into a large soup pot. Add the
green chile and the chicken mixture (with the liquid) and cook, over low
heat, for at least one hour, stirring occasionally. Remove the bay leaves
and serve in soup bowls with the Holiday Red Chile Sauce NM. Lynn Nusom is
the author of nine cookbooks, including Christmas in New Mexico, The New
Mexico Cook Book, The Tequila Cook Book, The Sizzling Southwestem Cookbook
and more than 650 newspaper and magazine articles on cooking and travel.
