This
recipe is the 17th in a 21-week series, The Feast of the Ages,
developed to share our faith with our readers, realizing that as much as
we love food, our faith is an even more important and bigger part of our lives. We thought it would be fun to bring the two together.

In
Revelation 19:9, the Bible says, “Blessed are those who are invited to
the wedding supper of the Lamb!†The Bible refers to the church, or
the Christian body of believers, as the “bride of Christ.†The wedding
supper, or feast, represents a time of great celebration when Jesus is united with the church in heaven.

What a celebration this will be! Imagine what the elements of the greatest party you could plan or attend would be like. The atmosphere
would be comfortable and very inviting. People would want to be there
because each person would be accepted for who he/she is. Each person
would be made to feel special and everyone would feel included and a
part of the activities. The fellowship and interactions between people would be real. The food
would have the freshest ingredients and the flavors would be perfect.
There would be no concern about the effects of pesticides or chemicals
used in the growing process of the food. There would be something for everyone,
and the individual taste preferences of every guest would be completely
satisfied. This is what we would anticipate the wedding supper of the
Lamb to be like.

The
most formal of feasts includes 21 courses. When we thought about what
the Wedding Feast of the Lamb might look like, a celebration for the
King of Kings and Lord of Lords, we thought it could definitely involve
21courses! We thought it would be fun to provide a sample 21-course
“Feast of the Ages†menu, with a different recipe a week over 21
consecutive weeks.

We offer pudding for the 17th course:
Banana Pudding DiscsÂ
Ingredients:
- Vanilla Wafers
- 1 small box instant vanilla pudding
- whole milk
- 2 ripe bananas
- 2 egg whites
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
Cooking Directions:
- Prepare pudding as directed on box. Cover and place in refrigerator to chill.
- In a standing mixer, place two egg whites and cream of tartar. Mix on medium high speed until white and frothing.Â
- Slowly add granulated sugar and continue to beat until stiff peaks form. Keep cool.
- Assembly: Turn oven on lowest broiler setting. Place one vanilla wafer, flat side up, on cookie sheet. Place approximately 1/2 teaspoon vanilla pudding on top of wafer. Place one slice of banana, approximately 1/4 inch thick, on top of pudding. Using a butter knife, take a small amount of meringue and place on top of banana slice, drawing knife upward to create a peak. Repeat assembly steps to make as many as desired. (NOTE: You must work quickly as meringue will slowly lose its stiffness.)
- Once all are assembled, place cookie sheet in oven for 5-7 minutes or until meringue is golden brown and firm to the touch.
- Remove from oven and cool completely before serving.
