I've not been sure if we are to respond to the posts in Devotional Forum -- this one has prompted me because I have been thinking exactly along the lines of the questions posed in this thread.

When we read these earlier writers, it is so obvious that all of their lives were saturated by God's word and direction. I've been trying to discern between what was cultural and what is directed by God's word. We live in a post-60s, post-feminist time and likely were reared with the fuzzy middle-class mores. How do we get outside of this mindset and really see what God demands of us?

BTW, the recommendation on another thread for Mr. Henry Scudder's "The Christian's Daily Walk" has been very helpful, but at the same time, raised even more of these questions for me.
