Jesus was a radical in the sense that he taught, "Love Your Enemy," and "Love Your Neighbor As Yourself." That very statement runs counter to self-interests. Those who manipulate the levers of power cannot imag- ine a world where sovereignty is exercised apart from "their own" self-interest. Jesus intends for us to reign by abdicating all claim to our own honor, wealth, power, and glory. That is a tough sell—be- cause in the end, the na- tion-state is not the enemy at all: I am and you are. The Gospel confronts us with this challenge: "The on- ly way to change the world around us is first to change the world within us! " The only revolution that will bring about true, lasting, and durable change—is a revolu- tion of the soul. We need to remind our- selves that Jesus revolution- ized the world through his sacrifice, and His words. He instituted love and grace—that was the real rev- olution. Think about it as you cel- ebrate the nation's Indepen- dence and pray for its contin- uation. GRACE Continued from page 9 Court Report FELONY Pike County Circuit Court Vicki R.

This reality, com- bined with the ev- er-changing picky eating habits of my young children and the fact that my husband also hates to cook, has turned our family into a frozen-foods family. I may not be able to cook, but I can thaw. And thanks to my good friend Marie Callender, this is all I typically do. In a week, my family will be taking off in our RV for an un- determined amount of time. Preparing our home for the renters has been, for the most part, a boring and exhausting project, complete with finding missing socks, naughty chil- dren's hidden candy wrap- pers, and the occasional $10 bill in the unlikeliest of places. Moving is a joyless process. Moving out of our kitchen, however, has been, well, inter- esting. It turns out that even those of us who live solely on frozen meals can fill a cupboard with food that I'm not even sure qualifies as food. Who uses this stuff? Chickpeas? Len- tils? Sardines? What in the world is tomato paste? Was that purchased for a child's art project? Our having a jam-packed cupboard raises the question, Who bought this stuff? There are four cans of diced carrots, and I hate carrots. Did I suf- fer from acute hunger pangs one time and simply empty an entire aisle into my cart? Was I ill? Did I experience tem- porary memory loss and for- get who I was during a shop- ping spree? Most certainly, the items filling my cupboard are known and used by most people. Surely, nearly every- one reading this would tell me that the proper use of toma- to paste has more to do with cuisine than gluing Popsicle sticks together (though, in my defense, Popsicles are food), but I am not that person. Why did I purchase these items? In an effort to get ready for our move and in an attempt to save money, we decided it was high time to eat through our long-sitting cupboard stash. (Recently, we've only gone to the market for milk and fresh fruit.) And, I'll have you know, it has led to some quasi-ac- ceptable meals. The kidney beans with vin- egar, onion straws and pick- led jalapenos were surprising- ly edible, if not exactly enjoy- able. The kids were not fans, but in all fairness, unless I can mash meat into a dino- saur shape, they don't tend to be impressed. The pasta wheels with pea- nut butter and soy sauce and canned lima beans were con- sumed with min- imal complaint. The tuna cas- serole with chickpeas, to- mato paste and breadcrumbs was a disastrous failure. Our 4-year-old cried. We gave in and ordered a piz- za. Shockingly, the meal con- sisting of coconut cream, rice, dates, peas and sliced carrots (two cans!) was a huge suc- cess. The children asked for seconds, but we were out of coconut cream, so I tried us- ing coffee creamer. This may not surprise you, but it did not work. Before I had children, my brother moved in with my husband and me for about six months. He wasn't pay- ing rent, so he paid us back by cooking dinner. He made all sorts of delicious concoc- tions, from jelly lasagna to but- ternut Tater Tot quiche. My fa- vorite dish of his was spaghet- ti tacos. While going through our sparse shelves for dinner ideas tonight, I came across the ingredients. I excitedly told my husband that we are going to introduce the kids to spaghetti tacos tonight! He arched an eyebrow. "Are you enjoying cook- ing? " I laughed. No. I assured my husband that we will return to our frozen lifestyle once we hit the road in the RV. But it did give me some pause. The appeal of my fro- zen-food lifestyle is that it is easy, but it is also always the same. I can't mess it up, but I also can't make it interesting. Unless, perhaps, I can. When my brother stayed with us, I asked him how he had come up with his meal ideas. He said he had just looked at what was available and put things together he knew would taste good. It was that simple. I'm putting things togeth- er. I just need to work on the "tastes good" part. Yesterday the service shop working on our RV called. It will be a few weeks until the freezer is fixed. We can take the RV now but will need to bring it back if we want a work- ing freezer. Looks as if more canned carrots are in our future.
