Why Holiness

Why Holiness: Thirty-One Blessings Reserved for the Set-Apart Life is a transformational guide designed to reveal the beauty, power, and necessity of holy living in the life of every believer. In a culture driven by self, speed, and spiritual compromise, Dr. Marcus E. Turner offers a refreshing and compelling call to return to the life God intended: a life set apart, aligned with His will, and overflowing with His presence.

Holiness is often misunderstood as restriction, legalism, or perfectionism. But Scripture paints a different picture. Holiness is not a burden; it is a blessing. It is not about earning God's favor; it is about positioning yourself to receive the good things He already desires to give. Holiness is the pathway that opens the door to peace, protection, provision, usefulness, deliverance, and supernatural favor. As Psalm 84:11 declares, God withholds no good thing from those who walk uprightly.

Across thirty-one biblically grounded chapters, Dr. Turner explores the blessings that flow from the set-apart life. Readers will discover how holiness releases divine benefits such as wisdom, breakthrough, boldness, joy, protection, discernment, fulfillment, and legacy. Each chapter follows an accessible and engaging format that blends Scripture, exposition, reflection, and practical application. With pastoral warmth and spiritual insight, Dr. Turner guides readers to understand not only what holiness is, but how to walk in it daily.

This book is deeply devotional yet highly practical. It draws upon the stories of biblical men and women-Joseph, Daniel, Esther, Mary, and others-who experienced God's extraordinary favor because they lived consecrated lives. It invites readers to embrace holiness as a lifestyle of intimacy rather than obligation, empowerment rather than fear, transformation rather than mere rule-keeping.

Why Holiness is for anyone longing for more: more of God's presence, more clarity about purpose, more spiritual strength, and more joy in the Christian walk. It will challenge, inspire, and equip readers to step into the abundant life Christ promised, living in the fullness of God's favor, power, and blessing.

This is not just a book. It is a call. A journey. A holy invitation.
