The word holiness comes from the Hebrew word, kadash, which
means “to separate” or “to set apart” or “to distinguish.” Holiness is
central to the Christian understanding of the gospel, and we
are called to be holy because of the simple fact that God is holy.
The meditations in The Call to Holiness: Pursuing the Heart of God
for the Love of the World explore how God’s holiness is manifested
within the larger framework of His self-revelation as found in
the Bible and in our lives. These short reflections demonstrate that
holiness—along with all of God’s other amazing attributes—always
informs who He is in all of His dealings with us. An examination
of this important doctrine will lead us to a deeper relationship
with God and one another, and ultimately, will affect how we live
in the world.
