New Music


Donald Lawrence has solidified his place in contemporary Gospel history as one of the most prolific songwriters and producers of our time. Lawrence is now poised to release, arguably, his most compelling and ground-breaking recording, to date: The Law of Confession Part I. Drenched in biblical principles, and inspired by a life-changing series taught by Lawrence's pastor, Bill Winston of Chicago's Living Word Christian Center, The Law of Confession Part I has all the elements to spark a movement and to cause a great shift in the thinking and daily practices of believers. The Law of Confession Part I is rife with passion, power and truth, and is certain to inspire a mighty movement. Gospel Cafe is already spinning two cuts from the great CD.

MICHIGAN SECRET POT ROAST

1 large pot roast (approx 4-5 lbs)
1 envelope Lipton Onion Soup
Mix salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder to taste beef bouillon powder (optional)

Sprinkle pot roast with seasonings and beef boullion if you have some available.
Open envelope and pour entire onion soup mix into the center of two long sheets (double thickness) of aluminum foil wrap. Roll the beef in the soup mix to coat. Wrap tightly with the foil, sealing well. Place package in a large open roaster in oven and set on low heat (275-300 degrees F) for 4-5 hours. If meat is frozen when you start, set oven to 225-250 degrees F for 8-10 hours instead.
During the last hour or so of cooking, add foil-wrapped potatoes to the pan for a side dish. Scrub potatoes well, rub with olive oil and wrap in foil. During last 10 minutes of cooking, unwrap top of potato, make a large X with knife, squeeze potato to soften and drop in butter or cheese to melt. Cook 10 more minutes under broiler. Season with salt and pepper and top with gravy from roast.
Serve.
This is an easy to prepare meal for those days when you're busy elsewhere than the kitchen as it takes very little preparation and basically cooks itself. An added bonus is that the cleanup is easy - everything is cooked in foil!
You can also make this in a Slow cooker (or even in your barbecue or smoker if you plan to have it going most of the day.)
