September 13, 2026 Sermon - Practical Holiness
from Serving Jesus Christ
This Sunday's Inspirational Message is: Practical Holiness Today we're talking about a word that makes a lot of us squirm a little: holiness. Maybe it sounds like something for monks, or missionaries, or people a whole lot more spiritual than you and me. But that's not what the Bible means by it. Peter, writing to ordinary Christians scattered across the ancient world, tells them plainly: "You shall be holy, for I am holy." Not "you might be." Not "try to be, if you feel like it." You shall be. We're going to walk through 1 Peter 1:13-16 together, and we're going to discover that holiness isn't about becoming stiff or joyless or unrelatable. It's about becoming who God actually made you to be in Christ. It starts in the mind, it refuses to go back to old patterns, and it reaches into every single corner of ordinary life — how we talk, how we work, how we treat our families, how we spend a Tuesday afternoon. * * * * * Once again, thanks for joining us in our time of worshiping the Lord through His Word!
