Session 1: Wise and Humble Endurance [9:37]
We need wise and humble endurance. The world pelts us with commercials and products that promise to make us stronger men, independent women, and champions of all kinds. In this session, Philip Nation reminds us the gospel reminds us that we need holiness that’s induced by grace, not by moral superiority.

Session 2: Obedience in Real Time [14:38]
In this session Philip Nation considers the idea of obedience in our everyday walk with Jesus. God’s call to holiness is a call to a imitate Jesus. It requires laying down certain attitudes and actions while taking up new ones. Obedience isn’t just planning for a future date. Obedience is for this very moment.

Session 3: Relationships of Grace [12:34]
In this session Philip Nation teaches about relationships that encourage holiness. Holiness as a way of life calls us to relate to people with a new mindset. We don’t gauge the worth of people by their outward appearance or by what they can do for us. Instead, Christians have the opportunity to see others as God sees them: people who need His grace.

Session 4: Putting Holiness into Practice [10:00]
In this session Philip Nation focuses on the words we use. You must be willing to honestly evaluate the way you use your words. If you use too much biting sarcasm or gossip, seek to become “a tree of life” instead. In our pursuit of a life that reflects Jesus’ transformation, let your words heal like His.

Session 5: The Way of Humility [11:53]
In this session Philip Nation looks at James 4. This passage effortlessly moves back and forth between our relationship with God and our relationships with other people. Although they may seem to be completely different subjects, they aren’t. The dual emphasis reveals that we always occupy third place in our relationships. God is our top priority, and everyone else comes second. As Christ followers pursuing holiness, we must learn to live in third place.

Session 6: Powerful Lives of Prayer [9:47]
Prayer is one of the greatest gifts that God has given us. It gives us immediate access to the Creator. In prayer we can be completely honest with God about the state of our heart and all of our needs. In this session Philip Nation teaches about how prayer leads to holiness.
