Synopsis

The Word of God is a powerful weapon―it has the power to challenge, strengthen, and shape us. And yet, due to our increasingly short-term attention spans and noisy, fast-paced lives, many young people are struggling to find time to read it. In culture today we are often told that it is "good to be bad," with holiness being seen as negative (holier than thou!) or wildly unattainable. In more DISTINCT, Calvin Samuel invites us to explore what it truly means to be holy in culture today. The more series seeks to address this problem. Aesthetically pleasing, quote-heavy, with short chapters that hold together like a series of blog posts on a theme, this series will afford readers the space (whether it be five minutes on the subway or a quick evening devotional) to explore themes of the Bible in a life-applicable and accessible way.
