What if holiness isn’t a finish line you sprint toward but a song that shapes who you’re becoming? We dive deep into the meaning of holy across Scripture and discover why “Holy, holy, holy” is the only attribute repeated three times around God’s throne. Instead of a distant ideal, holiness emerges as God’s very essence—His moral beauty and radiant otherness—drawing us into relationship, not performance.
We unpack the tension many of us feel between “be holy” and “I keep falling short,” and we reframe it through grace. Peter’s call to be holy and Paul’s promise that “He will do it” set the stage: holiness is not self-improvement but alignment. The Holy Spirit—who seals, convicts, comforts, and renews—does the sanctifying work as we abide.
If you’re tired of striving and hungry for substance, this conversation offers a path: not striving but shining, not performing but reflecting, not fearing but resting.
