When I view a particular possibility as threatening, it imperils some value important to me. That is what I mean by threat. But suppose this threat is directed not to some modest finite value I love but to the very center of my value system, that focal value by which all my other values are viewed as valuable. Suppose my god is sex or my own physical health or the Democratic Party. If I experience one of these as under genuine threat, then I feel myself shake to the depths. In this way, idolatry intensifies anxiety.

INGREDIENTS

1	pk	Fatfree Sour cream
1	pk	Fatfree Cream Cheese
1	cn	Water chestnuts – chopped
1	pk	Frozen spinach – thawed and drained well

INSTRUCTIONS

Whip with mixer cream cheese until very smooth. Add sour cream and blend
with mixer. When smooth and fluffy, add chopped water chestnuts, red bell
pepper, and frozen spinach. Mix well by hand. Chill for 1 hour or more.
Notes: I chopped my red pepper in a food processor until very small. I
think large chunks might not taste right. To serve, I hollowed out a
sourdough bread loaf and poured the dip in it. I then cut up the bread
pieces into approx. 1 inch pieces for dipping.

A Message from our Provider:

“Famous last words: I’ll get right with God later”

Citing Psalm 118:22, Peter said [in Acts 4], “He is the stone which was rejected by you, the builders, but which became the chief corner stone.” So in quoting this prophecy about Jesus, Peter is declaring that the most important piece of God’s revelation to man was rejected by the very people who should have seen Him most clearly and esteemed Him most profoundly! But it was God the Father who saw God the Son rejected by His own people. He saw the Son crucified on a cross, thrown away like a rejected stone on a killing hill called Calvary. And it was God the Father who refused to leave His Son in an old dusty tomb and picked Him up, raised Him from the dead and put Him in the most important place as the corner stone. That is why we read in Philippians 2, “For this reason also, God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” (Phil. 2:9-11).
