    Most people prefer a God who is a little holier than they are—manageable, predictable, and unlikely to make demands. But that is not the God of the Bible. When Isaiah saw the real God—high and lifted up, attended by seraphim—his only response was, “Woe is me!”Pastor Chuck Swindoll opens Isaiah 6:1–8 to reveal a God whose holiness is utterly beyond our comfort zones. Far from paralyzing Isaiah, this vision broke him, cleansed him, and sent him on mission.Discover what a true vision of God's holiness can do in your life.
