Rick Shrader‘s Review:

Biederworlf was a well-know Presbyterian fundamentalist at the turn of the century. He once headed the Winona Lake Bible Conference (1922) and taught at Winona Lake School of Theology (1922-33). A study like this from a generation gone by (1907) is always a cultural reminder of how much the church has changed. His three subjects are dancing, card-playing, and theater attendance. Can you imagine the antipathy such preaching would create among Christians today? But read his reasons before you judge.

We have been thinking about the Christian walk and the word “behaving” is the normal word for “walking” (peripateo means “to walk around”_. How was it that they walked as “mere” men? We are told that they […]
