"In Being holy in the world, Nicholas Healy and D.C. Schindler presents the first book-length study of David L. Schindler's thought, compiling essays by twelve scholars that examine Schindler's Trinitarian theology, ecclesiology, anthropology, and metaphysics in the context of the encounter between Christianity and contemporary culture"--Page [4] of cover.

Discover what matters most to God. We serve a holy God. And as His children, God longs for us to pursue a life that is pleasing to Him. But what does this look like? The book of Leviticus provides the answer. Originally written for the ancient Israelites, Leviticus continues to offer timeless principles for living that remain relevant to believers today. This study examines those principles, and explores how we can cultivate holiness in our daily lives. Part of Dr. Warren W. Wiersbe’s best-selling “BE” commentary series, BE Holy has now been updated with study questions and a new introduction by Ken Baugh. A respected pastor and Bible teacher, Dr. Wiersbe shares that personal purity matters a great deal to God. You’ll find a fresh appreciation for the holiness of God, and be challenged to continually grow into the likeness of our Savior.

Becoming holy is about transitioning from practicing Christian ethics to living in Godly character. It is a teaching tool that gives instruction and guidance on how to achieve the standard that Jesus teaches us in the gospels of the New Testament. Jesus taught and showed us how to live a life pleasing to God, but the key attribute in fulfilling the teaching of Jesus is being holy (consecrated). Becoming holy is not an external alternation but it's an internal transformation. The purpose of this book is to teach people how to achieve the position of holiness and how to live in Godly character. The term live is correlated with being consistent, it's not a one day event, it's a process. This book breaks the boundaries and limitations of modern tradionalism. The process of becoming holy is realizing who you are, then allowing God to break and destroy who you are so you can resurrect to who He wants you to be. This book will be an instrument that will explain what prevents people from being holy, what will cause you to be holy and why it's important to pursue holiness. The pursuit and achievement of holiness qualifies you to be a disciple for the Lord. 1st Peter 1:15-17 says "But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy."

Youth leader and college president, Jay Kesler, provides solid, practical wisdom to help Christian leaders resolve the tension between holiness and honest transparency they face daily. He offers insight on how to be a true role model.

"Life, in the end, has only one tragedy: not to have been a saint." – Léon Bloy The ever-popular and prolific Peter Kreeft says that the most important question he has written about is how one becomes holy; or to put it another way, how one becomes a saint. This question is central to all the great religions, Kreeft demonstrates, for striving toward holiness, moving toward perfect love, is the whole purpose of life. Kreeft admits that he is only a beginner on the climb to holiness, and it is to novices like him that he has written this engaging and encouraging book. Using the insights and experiences of saints and great spiritual writers throughout history, Kreeft shows what holiness is and how it can be achieved. He especially draws upon the spiritual classic Abandonment to Divine Providence by Jean-Pierre de Caussade, S.J. The core of Caussade's timeless gem is that God reveals himself to all of us through the daily events of our lives. The surest way toward spiritual growth, therefore, is by perceiving and accepting the merciful will of God in every situation. Kreeft stresses the simplicity of his approach to holiness, which focuses mainly on the virtue of love. Sanctity is love, he asserts, and only that can give us what we all long for—deep and lasting joy.
