Ep 166: The Power of Holiness, Living Set Apart, and Transforming Your Life with Jackie Hill Perry

We're Going There with Bianca Juarez

Show Notes

How do we understand and live out holiness in our daily lives? Do you believe it's possible to live a truly holy life in a world full of distractions?

Author, poet, bible teacher, and hip-hop artist Jackie Hill Perry is on the show and together we explore:

The true meaning of holiness

The motivations that drive us to pursue a holy life

The essential role of the Holy Spirit in the process of sanctification

We candidly discuss the challenges and obstacles that often hinder our pursuit of holiness and the vital importance of understanding God's holiness in building a deeper trust in Him.

Remember that holiness isn’t about perfection; it’s about surrendering to the One who is perfectly holy. May this conversation inspire you to seek God’s holiness in every aspect of your life. Let Jackie know how much you appreciate her wisdom by tagging her @jackiehillperry and me @biancaolthoff.

XO, B

Quote We don't want to be like God in terms of His holiness, we want to be like God in terms of His authority.

Takeaways

Holiness is a decision of our will and is based on our conduct, comportment, and character.

The Holy Spirit plays a crucial role in sanctification by changing our hearts, giving us power over sin, and illuminating the Scriptures.

Understanding God's holiness is essential in building trust in Him.

The book on holiness by Jackie Hill Perry is recommended for all Christians, especially those who struggle with trusting God.

What do we do when life doesn’t go the way we wanted? The Church today needs tools for discipleship that go beyond a Sunday experience so that people can stay the course and live out the transformation that comes from staying with God… even when things don’t work out as planned. What does it mean for us to be present to His presence even when the outcomes are disappointing or heartbreaking?

How can we actually love like God calls us to love? The Church today is straining under the weight of division. Politics, theological disagreements, cultural differences, and deeply felt wounds are real threats and real damage is being done. What should happen when people who genuinely love Jesus and faithfully wrestle with Scripture arrive at different conclusions? In this conversation led by Dr. Anita Phillips, we get real about conviction, humility, and the work of remaining tender toward one another. This is an invitation to cultivate a love strong enough to stretch—reaching for each other rather than running as we trust God with it all.
