Description
In this volume, Kyle Strobel, an expert in spiritual formation and an academic theologian, and theologian Kent Eilers, whose Reading Theology Wisely was a finalist for the Christianity Today Book of the Year award, address the key soteriological theme of sanctification. This book provides substantive engagement with the doctrine of sanctification, including sections on the Apostles' Creed, Scripture, the history of the doctrine, dogmatics, and Christian praxis.
Sanctification and the Life of Faith follows two books coauthored by Kyle Strobel on the practical outworking of sanctification, and it builds on Eilers and Strobel's coedited volume Sanctified by Grace: A Theology of the Christian Life. In this doctrinal account, Strobel and Eilers show students how to integrate theology into the life of faith and demonstrate how theological thinking is a part of Christian worship. Each chapter begins with an interlude inviting reflection on artwork that illuminates the book's themes of God's presence and hospitality and the dynamics of divine and creaturely holiness. The book also includes sidebars, chapter summaries, art, prayers, and reflections.
The Soteriology and Doxology series consists of introductory textbooks that cover key topics in soteriology. Series volumes provide substantive treatments of doctrine while pointing to the setting of theology in doxology. Kent Eilers and Kyle C. Strobel serve as series editors.

Christians live in the presence of God, that is the central premise of this book. And because God is holy, we are to be holy. Drawing insights from church history and creeds to observe how we are to live in the presence of God and to live holy lives, this book helps readers to understand the work that God is doing in the lives of every believer through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit and sanctifies them to live like Christ.
