Publisher's summary

"Be holy, for I am holy," commands God to His people. But 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. Whether you're continuing your pursuit of holiness or just beginning, the principles and guidelines in The Pursuit of Holiness will challenge you to obey God's command of holiness.

Terrible Narrator

How did the narrator detract from the book?

I love this book and have read it in print format before. I purchased it here to make reviewing it easier. The narrator's voice grates so badly that I cannot focus on the message he is reading. I neecd to pursue a refund on this one.

Read by a robot?

Content is okay, but the reading sounds a little strange and kind of like a robot or computer most of the time.

Thank you

Jerry,
Want to thank you for putting this book together. It is both practical yet biblically truthful approach to right Christian living.
I have read every passage of scripture you quoted many times but did not see its application the way I should have. I am both humbled and grateful.

God’s plan for all

Such a valuable read. Most neglect God’s call for holiness in one’s life. Very careful unpacking of scripture!

Solid Challenge to a Life of Holiness

Packed with scripture, the author makes a solid case for the need of holiness in the life of the Christian. Great challenge and reminder that there are two parts to our holiness pursuit. The holy justification that God gives and the command for all Christians to pursue holiness.

A must read and live for every real disciple of Jesus

Being a Navigator Representative myself I admit that I am rather bias towards the writings of Jerry Bridges. I met him for a brief moment twice before he went on to the Lord and both times I walked away having experienced a man of God, pursuing God and encouraging others to do the same. This book is well laid out in structure as well as substance which will help every reader learn through personal applications of Jerry's stories and examples how they too can grow in personal holiness. Listening to this book at the beginning of each year helps me grow up in faith and strengthen my Pursuit of Holiness. It's a must read!

A must read for ANY believer

Bridges does a fantastic job helping to outline the importance of personal holiness. God commands holiness. This often times feels like such a distant challenge or possibility; oftentimes not even seeming attainable. This book helps to outline the vision and call to holiness, how we can fight for holiness and how we can pursue and obtain personal holiness in our lives. I’m grateful for the call to holiness as outlined in scripture. The printed edition has a study guide in the back. Follow along with this as you read or listen. Take steps to put aside your old self and become new and refreshed with the power of the Holy Spirit. Make changes in your life that help you on in your pursuit of personal holiness to become more like Christ.
