The doctrine of holiness is the essence of all Wesleyan thought. It is the lens through which Scripture is read and from which theology emerges. In recent years, the nuances of this core doctrine have been scrutinized and hotly debated by a new generation of scholars and church leaders. So, Why Holiness? Does this doctrine even matter anymore? Dr. Carla Sunberg and an international group of gifted theologians answer with a resounding yes. Together they explore how practices like intentional spiritual formation, engaging persons on the margins, and dialoguing with the past help us answer the question of why holiness remains essential to the life and health of the church.
