You might say the children of today have decided that if it doesn't quack like a duck, then it isn't a duck-whether it says so or not. The sanctified-by-intimidation demeanor of the past has left a sour taste in our mouths. And for years we wanted nothing to do with the doctrine of holiness. But at last we have begun to separate the gift from its vendors, and now we want it again. Only we want the real thing. We have learned that much of the "touch not, taste not, handle not" paraphernalia associated with sanctification has precious little, in reality, to do with the Holy Spirit who allegedly inspired it. So with or without the rules; with or without the circus of emotion; with or without the fire-breathing evangelists; and with or without the made-for-television testimonies, the sons of this modern age, like their godly predecessors who were honest with themselves, desire a life wholly devoted to the glory of God alone. We want sanctified careers and marriages too. We want pure minds that meditate, more than covet or lust. We want hearts without carnal ambitions. And we want temples suited for the dwelling of Christ. But we are not so interested in how high one jumps at the altar, as in how he walks when he finally comes down.

The diligent Christian, searching for a pathway to meaningful spiritual formation, often finds a confusing tangle of pathways and intersections. All of them claim to offer the spiritual guidance you need to follow Christ most effectively. But do they? There is a well-worn, proven pathway Christians can walk in their effort to live and serve like Jesus, but it is not the most popular or well-known. In fact, it is often forgotten. But those who travel it soon find the Spirit of God is at work transforming their lives. It is The Way of Holiness. In this powerful book, author Steve DeNeff guides the way on this well-worn path that leads to life as Jesus intended it. Along the way, he: 
<li>exposes some false detours from the way of holiness; </li>
<li>offers a practical definition of repentance that brings joy; </li>
<li>identifies the stages on the journey of growth in holiness; and </li>
<li>provides a realistic and practical look at the process and pathway that leads to holiness. Take the next steps on your journey to holiness today. (Previously released as Whatever Became of Holiness)
