Sweet Potato Custard (sort Of)

Thom Rainer did a study a number of years ago asking formerly unchurched people the open-ended question, “What factors led you to choose this church?” A lot of surveys had been done asking the unchurched what they would like in a church. But this study asked the formerly unchurched why they actually were now in a church. The results were surprising: 11 percent said worship style led them to their church, 25 percent said children’s/youth ministry, and 37 percent said they sensed God’s presence at their church. For 41 percent, someone from the church had witnessed to them, and 49 percent mentioned friendliness as the reason for choosing their church. Can you guess the top two responses? Doctrine and preaching – 88 percent said the doctrine led them to their church, and 90 percent said the preaching led them there, in particular, a pastor who preached with certitude and conviction… When it comes to reaching outsiders, bold, deep, biblical preaching is not the problem. It’s part of the solution.

INSTRUCTIONS

I really was in the mood for something sweet and custardy this
afternoon..  oven to 300.  bake the washed and halved potato in a
covered pyrex dish with the  water, stevia and pie spice in the bottom
for about an hour or until  the sweet potato is soft.  The peel should
slip right off. mash the remaining water and  seasoning with the sweet
potato and add the milk sub.  I didn't have graham crackers on hand but
think this would almost be  like a small pie if mashed graham crackers
were put in the bottom of  a custard dish with this on top.  Serve
warm. It was yummy and hit the spot.  Posted to fatfree digest by elle
