Advance Praise

“There’s nothing more invigorating in your walk with Jesus than getting up every morning and getting actively engaged in your own sanctification. To partner with the Spirit of Christ in your own change, growth, and maturity is a wonderful way of ‘making it your ambition to be pleasing to him.’ And I’m so excited that David Powlison shows the reader how to do just this in his remarkable new book How Does Sanctification Work? I give it a hearty thumbs-up!”

Featured Reviews

God changes you, Truth changes you, Suffering and struggle change you, Wise people change you, and You change you. These are the five pillars of Powlison's approach.

This is a personal reflection rather than a comprehensive theology.
