- Gingerbread.
With lots of whipped cream. I like gingerbread year-round, but a tasty square of gingerbread on a fall night is just a slice of heaven.
2. Apple cider.
Hot or cold, it doesn’t matter to me. From the very first sip of tangy, spicy apple goodness, I’m carried back to October evenings at our church’s Halloween parties and square dances.
3. Apple butter.
Like a lot of the other foods on this list, apple butter is available here year-round. Still, in my mind (and on my tongue)…

When God talks like an abusive boyfriend
Definitely thought-provoking.
A friend who writes a blog about being an atheist in the Bible Belt recently posted this on Facebook:
I have never heard more hatred spoken toward being human than I have heard in the lyrics of Christian music. The negativity is overpowering.
I have noticed this, too, but never mentioned it to anyone, thinking the real problem was me for “not getting it” or being too prideful. But the more I think about it, is it really necessary for the Christian to dwell on how depraved she is in order to praise how good God is? Isn’t God good just for the sake of being…God?
