Pursuing Holiness
Curated from years of journaling, these podcasts are a candid testimony of my faith journey. May the Holy Spirit use them to reveal the futility of self-reliance, the illusion of performance, and the freedom of the Way.
Hearts & Spirits
Step Into the Light and Live
A Pastoral Word
Ever wonder how the early Church walked in power the modern church marvels at, yet rarely inhabits?
They didn’t merely experience it. They lived in it.
It wasn’t reserved for apostles, nor tied to rank or office.
Scripture tells us they were all filled (Acts 4:31).
The early Church didn’t invite the Holy Spirit to visit.
They surrendered, and He made them His dwelling.
We weren’t denied access to the Spirit’s power; we stopped yielding. Instead, we hide and even defend what the light came to free us from.
Holiness does not rest upon performance, but upon surrender. Transformation begins not with effort, but with honesty and confession. These are the postures in which the Holy Spirit alone sanctifies us.
Walk "the Way" they walked. Step Into the Light and Live
Faith Works
As iron sharpens iron, these written and audio works are steeped in doctrine, exhortation, practice, reflection, and discipleship. They are offered in the hope they might help shape your own life of faith and apostolic holiness.
The Resurrection Rule
Dying to self and living for Christ is not about yearning, but yielding. The Resurrection Rule is a daily apostolic pattern of confession, crucifixion, and new life. It trains believers to walk in holiness rather than strive for it.
Refractions
The light this life is built on.
The Good News
Eternal life is not earned through good works; it is the gift of God through His Son Jesus Christ. He did for us what we could never do for ourselves.
Justification
Justification is a standing you receive, not a process you move through. Faith must be placed in the finished work of Christ, not anything you have done.
Confession
Confession is not management of sin, but exposure of the self who commits it. It's where the old man’s mask comes off and he stands exposed in the light.
Formation
Formation isn't achieved through white-knuckled resistance, but through open-handed surrender. It begins when you stop negotiating and start yielding.
Sanctification
Sanctification is not advanced by discipline, effort, or religious intensity. It is the Holy Spirit who brings conviction, comfort, correction, and empowerment.
