The Hole in Our Holiness
“There is a gap between our love for the gospel and our love for godliness. This must change. It’s not pietism, legalism, or fundamentalism to take holiness seriously.” (p. 21) Kevin DeYoung offers grace- and truth-filled encouragement for living lives pleasing to God. Addressing issues such as motivation and obstacles, DeYoung guides readers through practical application and wisdom on how to live more fully into who we already are in Christ. His self-stated goal is not to make readers feel defeated, but instead “hopeful about holiness.” (p. 107) I think he achieved his objective.
