Fine authors like Spurgeon and Chambers seem to have ruined me for most contemporary devotionals.

At least mommies with kids, and I have six homeschooled kids, we don't get everything done. What's worse, my intelligence level seems to be slipping. It's like that Ray Bradbury story (I think it was him) where the people who can think and would fight government control have a thing put in their ears that rings every few seconds to clear their thoughts....well, every few seconds I hear a sound that interrupts me..."MAAAAAAHHHHHHHHMMMMMMMEEEEEEEE." I've read some of my LJ's, and even when they are all sleeping, I cannot think straight. My communication skills are nill.

As to devotions, yes, I wish there was something meaty out there. My church keeps doing those Saddleback church things with DVD's, or that 40 days of purpose stuff. It's alright, but it's not depth. If you know of anything great, maybe we can get our church to do it, or at least my small group.
