Whenever evangelicals have an experience of direct, personal access to God, we are tempted to think or act as if we can dispense with doctrine, sacraments, history, and all the other “superfluous paraphernalia” of the Church and make our experience the sum and soul of our faith. We are still attracted to movements that replace thinking and theology by other emphases relational, therapeutic, charismatic, and managerial (as in church growth). Whatever the other virtues of these movements and the unquestionable importance of piety, we must courageously repudiate anti-intellectualism for the sin it is.

2	c	Flour
1	ts	Baking powder

1	c	Boiling water

		Toffee sauce:

2	tb	Heavy cream

INSTRUCTIONS

Soften the butter in a large mixing bowl, then add the sugar; cream them
until pale and light. Sift the flour and baking powder onto a plate. Beat
the egg with a little flour, into the creamed mixture. Continue beating for
a few minutes before mixing in the rest of the flour. Flour the dates
lightly and chop finely. Put into a bowl and pour the boiling water over
them. Mix in the baking soda and the vanilla. Gradually blend this mixture
into the batter, mixing in well. Transfer to an 11-by-7-inch, lightly
greased cake pan, spreading out evenly. Bake in a 350-degree oven for 40
minutes.
To make the toffee sauce, melt the butter in a small saucepan and add the
sugar and the cream. Simmer gently for 3 minutes. Cut the hot pudding into
squares and cover with the sauce. Place under a hot broiler until it
bubbles. Take care, as it burns easily. Serve at once.
