Men at Work: Every Believer's Part in Sanctification
Do you understand the biblical path for spiritual maturity in Christ Jesus? Sadly, many Christians today rely on misguided "treatments" for dealing with sin and looking to become more like Christ—thinking that attending church, having emotional experiences, following rules, avoiding obvious sins, or performing religious duties equals genuine spiritual transformation. But Philippians 2:12–13 draws a different picture of sanctification. Join Tom Penington as he explains from the Bible Men at Work: Every Believer's Part in Sanctification.

Part 1
From Philippians 2:12–13, Pastor Tom explains that real transformation is both a work of God and a call to maximum human effort. Whether you're a new believer or have walked with Christ for decades, I pray this series will help you understand how to be transformed into the image of Christ.

Part 2
In today's message from Pastor Tom, we consider again one of the most important yet misunderstood doctrines in the Christian life: sanctification. It's not just accumulating Bible knowledge, following a list of rules, or having a powerful emotional experience—true biblical change goes far deeper than any of that.

Part 3
Today's message from Pastor Tom returns to Philippians 2:12–13 and tackles a question that cuts straight to the heart of the Christian life: Who actually experiences genuine spiritual transformation? Whether you've been walking with Christ for decades or you're still trying to figure out your spiritual walk, Tom’s message will challenge you to examine your own heart.

Part 4
Today's message from Tom Pennington gets to the heart of that question by first clearing away three popular but deeply flawed approaches to sanctification. If you're ready to stop looking for a spiritual shortcut and start pursuing genuine transformation as outlined in the Word of God, Pastor Tom’s explanation of Philppians 2 is for you.

Part 5
Today's teaching from Tom dives back into two of the profound and practical verses in all of Scripture, Philippians 2:12–13, where the Apostle Paul lays out both the believer's responsibility and God's role in the process of sanctification. If your pursuit of holiness has grown passive or half-hearted, today's message from Pastor Tom will remind you why it matters.

Part 6
Today we examine two critical elements: the attitude with which we are to pursue holiness and our actual part in the process itself. That part is captured in four words: "work out your salvation." Today, we learn what this expression means and why it is a key component of sanctification.

Part 7
Today's message from Pastor Tom once again focuses on Philippians 2 and the spiritual transformation that God desires of every believer. And at the heart of that change are three steps that every believer must understand and apply: lay aside, be renewed, and put on. No Christian ever makes genuine progress in sanctification without all three.

Part 8
Today's message delivers the practical heart of our series on sanctification, unpacking the three-step process for biblical change that Paul lays out in Ephesians 4: lay aside, be renewed, and put on. Friend, are you searching for biblical change? Today's message will help you greatly.
