Mason, Lead Pastor of Epiphany Fellowship Church Holier Than Thou by Jackie Hill Perry is a surprising book.

In Holier Than Thou, Jackie walks us through Scripture, shaking the dust off of "holy" as we've come to know it and revealing it for what it really is: good news. If He can't sin against you, shouldn't that make Him the most trustworthy being there is?
