The classic book on the subject, with 1.4 million sold since its first release in 1978. "Be holy, for I am holy" is the command of God to His people. But every believer admits that this is his most uphill fight. Sometimes we're even confused as to what part is ours in the pursuit of holiness. Bridges helps us to see clearly what we must rely on God to do in us, and what we must accept responsibility for ourselves. "I believe this is a modern classic. Few books have had the influence on me that this one has." - Charles Colson, Prison Fellowship Ministries
"Incisive, conscience-stirring, a volume that will have a far-reaching impact upon the lives of countless numbers who read it." - Herbert Lockyer
Still running strong. Twenty-five years ago, The Pursuit of Holiness posed the question: What does holiness look like? For starters, it doesn't look anything like perfection. And it doesn't necessarily look like victory. Mostly, it consists of effort, prayer, grace, and obedience. "Scripture speaks of both a holiness we have in Christ before God, and a holiness we are to strive after," writes the author. In other words, we can ignore neither Christ's role nor our own if we are to successfully pursue holiness. It is as simple as refusing to smudge the truth on a tax return or as complicated as forgiving the person who has most viciously hurt us. Jerry takes holiness out of the realm of the impossible and brings it into "the real world" of our daily lives and decisions.
