The "hole in our holiness" is that evangelicals don't look particularly holy, and despite the flood of gospel-centered discussions, there seems to be a greater focus on personal depravity than on the pursuit of holiness. Looking to right the balances, Kevin DeYoung presents a popular-level treatment of sanctification and union with Christ, helping readers to see what matters most - being like Jesus. He shows how one can be like Christ in being joined to Christ.

The market is ready for DeYoung's timely book, ready to avoid legalism and ambivalence, and they are ready for someone to articulate the inextricable relationship between grace and holiness.

I found this book to be very practical and therefore it impacted my life. I praise God for the work through Kevin de Young. I am definitely stirred to read more of his books now. I give this book the highest recommendation and the audio recording was spectacular. Very engaging.

A great and practical book on holiness!

An exegetical sound teaching by a very Biblical gifted pastor and teacher. Thanks again, Kevin Deyoung.

Most Christians don’t talk about holiness, at least in my experience. It is difficult to talk about, but this book shows clearly that holiness is not just something that “happens.” There is intentionality to it, all of it comes from God, but as he says “you are justified by faith alone, but the faith that justifies is never alone.” Extremely helpful book which talks frankly and genuinely about why holiness is important, even essential, as an evidence of real salvation.

This is a wonderfully focused book on holiness and how, as believers, we must be mindful of our pursuit of holiness - to be more conformed to Christ. I thoroughly enjoyed it!

A wonderful refocusing on holiness

Spoken in passion with the translation to everyday understanding and application. This book stands alone and is a great companion in our quest to get closer to the Holy Spirit. A pleasure to soak up this book. Thank you
