How important is holiness to you? How much thought, attention, and effort do you devote to the pursuit of holiness? Is it your priority and mission to be holy?

Nancy Leigh DeMoss teaches that we must make it our constant, conscious ambition to be holy. Just as an athlete sets his sight on winning an Olympic gold medal, so we as believers must focus on the pursuit of holiness. And the reward that awaits us brings a depth of joy that far outweighs a fading gold medal; it is the humble pleasure of hearing the Father say, "Well done, good and faithful servant."

Do you long for an authentic faith? Are you eager to know your heavenly Father in a more intimate way? Read Holiness and learn how to say 'no' to corruption and 'yes' to grace.

Holiness is the third book in The Revive OurHearts Series, which has sold well over 240,000 copies. All three include study questions at the end of each chapter, making them ideal for personal or small group study.

From the Back Cover

Your fullest experience of God will only come when your life is holy and your heart is pure.

If you’re longing for a deeper connection with God, you must first answer His call to holiness. Here Nancy Leigh DeMoss shares practical principles for having a life that is set apart—and a heart is set on fire.

When our pastoral team reads a book by Nancy, we listen.  We are riveted.  We are convicted.  When you taste the pleasantness of painful and precious truth, you want more.  I thank God for the heart-awakening, holiness-advancing, Christ-exalting ministry of Nancy Leigh DeMoss.
-John Piper, Preaching Pastor, Bethlehem Baptist Church, Minneapolis

Nancy points the way down the path of sanctification, showing us the road signs and milestones that take us deeper into the heart of our Holy God.
-Joni Eareckson Tada, Founder and President, Joni and Friends

As I read this book, I was sobered again by the deceitfulness of my own heart, moved to careful repentance and urged to fix my gaze upon Christ as the only model and means of holiness.  Nancy's clear voice expresses the Father's heart for His children.
-Steve Green, Christian Recording Artist

NANCY DEMOSS WOLGEMUTH is the founder and lead Bible teacher for Revive Our Hearts, a ministry dedicated to calling women to freedom, fullness, and fruitfulness in Christ. Nancy's love for Christ and passion for His Word are evident through her writing, digital, and conference outreaches and her two daily audio teachings—Revive Our Hearts and Seeking Him.

Holiness is not just for some select few spiritual giants; it is not just for pious people who sit around all day with nothing to do but "be holy." Holiness is for moms who battle a sense of uselessness and discouragement and who are tempted to escape into self-pity, romance novels, antidepressants, or the arms of an attentive man. It is for lonely widows, divorcees, and singles who are struggling to stay sexually abstinent. It is for husbands and wives who wrestle with bitterness toward mates who have abused or abandoned them. It is for men who are tempted to cheat on their expense reports or their wives or to abdicate their spiritual leadership in the home. "Everyone who names the name of the Lord" is called to live a holy life! God would not command us to do anything without also enabling us to do it. He knows we cannot possibly be holy apart from Him. That's why He has made provision for us to overcome sin through the cross of Christ. That's why He has sent His Spirit to live in our hearts. And that's why He has given every believer a supernatural resource called grace that gives us the desire and the power to be holy.
