Pastor Steve teaches that holiness is not optional—it is every believer’s calling. Drawing from 1 Thessalonians 4 and Hebrews 12:14, he explains sanctification as both instant and ongoing: at salvation God declares us righteous; then the Spirit and our daily “yes” shape us into vessels of honor. Sanctification is not isolation, legalism, or sinless perfection. It is separation from sin and unto Christ. Rules cannot make us holy; relationship can. A hunger for holiness produces prayer, Scripture, and the gathered church. The aim is Galatians 2:20 living—less of us, more of Jesus—so God can use us anytime for His glory.
