Product Description

Developing holiness and godliness––the Christian’s joint venture with God.

Now, for the first time, The Pursuit of Holiness, its companion Bible study, and The Practice of Godliness are conveniently packaged together, giving you three excellent resources at a great value. In The Pursuit of Holiness, Jerry Bridges teaches us how to put away the sin in our lives, thus preparing us for the lesson found in The Practice of Godliness: how to develop a Christlike character.

The Practice of Godliness

What makes a Christian godly? In The Practice of Godliness, Jerry Bridges examines what it means to grow in Christian character, and helps us establish the foundation upon which that character is built. Bridges opens our eyes to how character formation affects the way we relate to God, to ourselves, and to others.

The Pursuit of Holiness

Holiness is something that is often missed in the Christian’s daily life. According to Jerry Bridges, that’s because we’re not exactly sure what our part in holiness is. In The Pursuit of Holiness, he helps us see clearly just what we should rely on God to do—and what we should accept responsibility for ourselves.

The Pursuit of Holiness Bible Study

The 12-lesson companion study guide to The Pursuit of Holiness will help you discover the Bible’s guidelines for holy living.

This is a great book for the Christian who never thought about actually being holy. This book helped me realize that God did call us to be holy and it is our responsibility to strive for holiness in our everyday lives.

The Pursuit of Holiness

This book was helpful if you are not spirit filled believer. It is somewhat legalistic. But it does give some good, tough scripture verses and reminds you what is your responsibily in your relationship with God.
