Hi, this is John.
And today on Theocast, Justin and I want to do a review of a recent sermon by John Piper on holiness directed towards pastors.
And we just want to walk through some of his points and look at them from the Bible and ask ourselves: is this the most accurate way of understanding these passages?
And we're here to kind of walk through the idea of preaching holiness from the pulpit and how it should be done and what's the aim and use some historic and reform understandings of the Bible to think through and
filter through some of the things that John has presented.
We hope this is helpful.

Welcome to Theocast, Encouraging Weary Pilgrims to Rest in Christ: Conversations about the Christian Life from a Confessionally Reformed and Pastoral Perspective.
Your host today are Pastor Justin Perdue of Covenant Baptist Church in Asheville, North Carolina.
And I'm John Moffat and pastor of Grace Reform Church in Spring Hill, Tennessee.
And Justin, as usual, Wednesday mornings is something I look forward to.
We didn't record last week and it threw me off.
I feel like my whole day was off.
So it's good to be back on track today.
My friend, how are you?
I'm doing okay, man.
I'm tired.
