Inhaltsangabe

Simon Ponsonby tells us the story of a holy God seeking friends among the unholy, bringing life to those who, left to themselves, would have missed out completely. Here we discover how God longs to share something of his own purity with us. In an instant he changes our standing with him; over a lifetime he can change our attitudes and our actions. But are we on board? If even a few of us were ready and willing, the result would be a chain reaction with the power to transform the society around us. The book starts with a look at God s essential and unique holiness (the as I am holy part) and what that means for us as sinful human beings (the Be holy part). We then learn that, contrary to what we might expect, God actually moves towards us not away from us. And so the command to be holy as I am holy becomes reachable.
