Scriptural Holiness - Episode 01 - The State of Our Church & Our Culture

It is clear that holiness is the nature of the church, but it is not altogether clear at this moment what that needs to look like. What has been lost? What needs to be regained, reclaimed, revamped?
Join Rev. Dr. Pete Bellini and Jeffrey Rickman as we attempt to lay a groundwork for reclaiming scriptural holiness in modern Methodism, and in Christianity more broadly. We will integrate audience questions and feedback while mining Dr. Bellini for his wisdom, having labored in this field for many decades.

Thank you for this program. I will be tuning in each week. I could not agree more that we need to get our eyes on our God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit and off of ourselves and all the nonsense of the world - be in the world but not of the world. Thank you again and bless you!

Will follow to hear about class meetings. Zoom tends to replace chances for real world groups.

John Wesley strongly liked and recommended to the Methodists the pastoral and ethical writings of Richard Baxter, a puritan who vehemently rejected Antinomianism. "The Practical Works of Richard Baxter" in four volumes is still in print to this very day. I strongly recommend it to y'all, especially the first volume on Christian Ethics
