How Does Sanctification Work? (David Powlison)
$8.50Many popular views try to reduce the process of Christian growth to a single template. For example, remember past grace. Rehearse your identity in Christ. Avail yourself of the means of grace. Discipline yourself. But Scripture portrays the dynamics of sanctification in a rich variety of ways. No single factor, truth, or protocol can capture why and how a person is changed into the image of Christ.
Weaving together personal stories, biblical exposition, and theological reflection, David Powlison shows the personal and particular ways that God meets you where you are to produce change. He highlights the variety of factors that work together, helping us to avoid sweeping generalizations and pat answers in the search for a key to sanctification. This book is a go-to resource for understanding the multifaceted, lifelong, personal journey of sanctification.

Holiness: Its Nature, Hindrances, Difficulties and Roots (J. C. Ryle)
$29.00“This book is simply the best of Ryle, the Puritan-type pastor. Real Christians will find it a gold mine, a feast, a spur and a heart-warmer, food, drink, medicine, and a course of vitamins, all in one.” — J. I. Packer
Holiness: Its Nature, Hindrances, Difficulties, and Roots is perhaps J. C. Ryle’s best-known and best-loved book. Although many things have changed since 1877, when it was first published, one thing remains the same: ‘real practical holiness does not receive the attention it deserves.’  It was to remedy this and to counter false teaching on this most important subject, that Ryle took up his pen.
The 21 chapters in this enlarged edition highlight:
- the real nature of holiness
- the temptations and difficulties which all must expect who pursue it
- the life-transforming truth that union with Christ is the root of holiness
- the immense encouragement Jesus Christ holds out to all who strive to be holy.
Holiness, as with all of Ryle’s works, is clear and concise, penetrating and practical.
