We all do it. We're planning our family camping trip, and the only food on the list are things we can poke on a stick to hold over the fire. Well, that's ok if you're 10 years old, but camping doesn't have to be quite so predictable.

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal live. John 3:16 (NIV)
