Holiness in Worship & Living, from our Midweek Bible Study: "Holiness of God" - 6.3.26 Taught by Mike Whitt. What does it mean that God is holy, and why does it matter how you live today? In this Journey Together teaching, Elder Mike Whitt walks through the holiness of God not as a single attribute among many, but as the crowning perfection that defines everything God is. Drawing on Archibald Hodge's description of holiness as God's "consummate perfection and total glory," and R.C. Sproul's shorthand of "transcendent purity," Mike unpacks two frameworks for understanding God's holy character. The first traces the relationship between God's wrath, His justice, and His grace, anchored in Jonathan Edwards' landmark sermon and the sobering truth that only the imputed righteousness of Christ stands between a sinner and holy judgment. The second explores God's holiness through the triad of goodness, truth, and beauty, showing through Romans 1 and Psalm 8 that God's invisible attributes have been on display through creation since the beginning, leaving no one without a witness. The teaching closes with the simple and arresting reality of Ephesians 1:4 — God chose us to be holy, and Christ died to make that possible.

Holiness in Salvation and Sanctification, from our Midweek Bible Study: "Holiness of God" - 5.27.26 Taught by Omar Edwards. Elder Omar Edwards opens this teaching with an honest confession: the call to live set apart for God sounds like an impossible standard, especially when someone cuts you off on I-75 right after church. Working from 1 Peter 1:13-19, Omar walks through four men in Scripture (Jacob, Job, Habakkuk, and Paul) who each wrestled with a holy God and came through with peace on the other side. The sermon addresses the real mindsets that keep believers from growing into who God has called them to be: a secular disconnection from His presence, suffering that distorts our view of Him, a self-first posture that indicts God when He does not respond on our terms, and a self-righteous spirit that grades others rather than examining itself. At the center of it all is a truth that steadies the whole message. God does not expect perfection, but He does expect growth, and that growth is possible only because Christ's righteousness has been credited to us. Anyone who has ever felt the distance between who they are and who God is calling them to be will walk away with both honest challenge and real hope.

Wednesday Night Teaching "Holy Justice" (Luke 13:1-5) What do you do with the parts of the Bible that feel severe? The passages where God's judgment lands swiftly and people die, where nations are destroyed, where the cost of sin is immediate and real? If we're honest, those passages can produce more questions than comfort. In this Wednesday night teaching, Elder Mike Hess walks through Luke 13:1-5 and a series of passages across the Old and New Testaments, including Leviticus 10, 1 Chronicles 13, and Numbers 4, to show that God's justice is never a miscarriage of justice. It is always an expression of who He is: holy, infinitely wise, and never wrong. Hess addresses four commonly misunderstood biblical concepts (justice, holiness, grace, and sin), examines the stumbling blocks that lead us to question God rather than submit to Him, and shows that perfect justice is ultimately found at the cross of Jesus Christ, where the wrath of God was satisfied so that sinners could be declared righteous. Because God is holy, we can trust Him completely, with our questions, our pain, and our future.

Journey Together "Holiness and Conscience" (Romans 1:16-17) When God's holiness is fully in view, the conscience has no place to hide. Elder Peter Finch uses the life of Martin Luther as a window into what happens when a person measures himself honestly against what God actually requires: not human standards, not a curve, but the standard of loving God with every part of you, every day. Luther's years of compulsive confession and self-punishment weren't weakness; they were the logical result of seeing God's holiness clearly and refusing to pretend otherwise. The same mirror that exposed Luther's despair, the law of God, ultimately pointed him to the discovery that changed the Reformation: the righteousness of God in Romans 1:17 is not a demand but a gift, freely given to all who trust in Christ. Clothed in Christ's righteousness, the fear that once crushed Luther was transformed into love, adoration, and a genuine desire to grow in obedience. Philippians 2:12-13 closes the message: it is God who works in you both to will and to work. The grace that saved you is the same grace that is changing you.

What is the right response when you come face to face with the holiness of God? In this Journey Together Bible study, David Miller teaches from Luke 5:1–11, exploring what R.C. Sproul calls the trauma of holiness. The episode covers three effects that God's holiness produces in us: an awareness of sin, a holy fear, and a change in direction. Using the account of Peter's miraculous catch of fish, David shows how the miracle was never about the fish. Jesus directed Peter's attention away from the catch and toward something Peter could not escape: his own sinfulness in the presence of a holy God. This episode is for anyone who has ever wondered why the gospel requires bad news before it can offer good news, and for those who need to be reminded that being caught in sin is not a sign of God's absence. It is a sign of his mercy. Presented by McGregor Podcast 2026 Visit Our Website at McGregorPodcast.com New to McGregor? Plan a visit at mcgregor.net/plan-a-visit
God's children are set apart as saints, given the privilege of sharing in Christ's moral beauty. Pastor John explains how God's holiness draws us to him.
God is often described as loving, gracious, and near. But in Scripture, every person who encountered Him directly fell to the ground in fear. In this McGregor Podcast teaching, Danny traces that pattern from Moses at the burning bush to John in Revelation, asking why holiness produces awe before comfort. He explores what Scripture means when it calls God holy, why the chasm between humanity and God is one no human effort can close, and why the cross is the only place where God's justice and mercy could ever meet. Listeners walk away with a bigger view of what it cost to close that gap, and a deeper understanding of why grace only grows larger the more seriously we take God's holiness. This episode is for anyone wanting to understand the gospel at a deeper level, or whose sense of grace has grown smaller than Scripture intends.

What is the defining attribute of God? On this episode, David Wollen explores the holiness of God and how seeing Him rightly shapes our understanding of grace.
Journey Together "An Introduction to the Holiness of God" (Isaiah 6; Job 42) What does it actually mean that God is holy? Before the answer can land, some ideas have to go. In this opening Journey Together teaching, Pastor Russell Howard begins a new series on the holiness of God by clearing away three distortions that have found their way into Christian thinking: open theology, which pictures God as a character in process alongside us; dualism, which assigns Satan a symmetry with God that Scripture flatly refuses; and any framework for salvation that credits human merit with tipping the scale. From there, Pastor Russell turns to what Scripture actually shows when people encounter the holy God. Isaiah undone in the temple. Job silenced after his long list of accusations. Saul of Tarsus walking away from everything he thought he was doing. The pattern is the same: first, being undone; then, humility and receptivity to God's Word; then, a transformation of both being and purpose. This is an introduction to holiness, and the good part is still ahead. Presented by McGregor Podcast 2026 Visit Our Website at McGregorPodcast.com New to McGregor?

In this powerful and thought‑provoking episode of the hosts,Tina and Britt slow down and invite listeners into a deeper reverence for who God truly is. Centered on the theme “The Holiness of God,” this episode features Britt reading an extended, convicting teaching drawn from Learning from Leviticus by biblical commentator Warren Wiersbe, exploring why God's holiness is not optional—but foundational to the Christian life.Together, Tina and Britt reflect on how modern Christianity has often lost its awe and reverence for a holy God, and why rediscovering God's holiness changes everything—from how we view sin, to how we worship, to how we live out our faith in everyday life. This episode walks through the book of Leviticus, connecting Old Testament sacrificial law to the finished work of Jesus Christ, and showing how holiness begins at the altar and continues through obedience, discipline, and genuine fellowship with God.Listeners will be challenged to consider how personal holiness impacts families, churches, and even entire communities. The conversation addresses difficult but necessary truths about sin, repentance, worship, spiritual discipline, and living to please God alone—not for appearances, but for His glory.If you're longing for deeper spiritual growth, a renewed fear of the Lord, and a faith that leaves a lasting legacy for future generations, this episode will both encourage and convict your heart.Why the holiness of God is central to the gospelWhat the book of Leviticus teaches believers todayHow Jesus Christ fulfills the sacrificial systemThe difference between emotional worship and Spirit‑led holinessWhy holiness is personal, communal, and transformativeHow walking in holiness shapes your legacy for generations

One of the oldest and most beloved of our Christian hymns is "Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty." The words were written by Reginald Heber, who was born in 1783. When we say that God is holy, what does that mean? This may sound like a dull, uninteresting subject, but today we are going to look at what God's holiness means to us in our everyday lives.

To pray is "to lift up our minds and hearts to God." Often, however, we lose a proper sense of the grandeur and awesome nature of God. Routine makes us used to prayer and God becomes something taken for granted, ordinary, and even boring. Reflecting on God's power and transcendence can spark us to a renewed love for him and new horizons in our prayer life.
The holiness of God humbles us in every way. When we come to understand it, even in small measure, it causes us to have humility.
God is holy. It is an essential element of His nature. In order to see God rightly, we must see Him as holy.
