The Sanctification of the Local Church

Welcome to the first episode of Truth and Grace, the official podcast of Cornerstone Baptist Church in Sedalia, Missouri! In this episode, Pastors Tim and Jake introduce the heart behind this new podcast—offering deeper biblical discussion, practical theology, and encouragement for daily Christian living.

The focus of today’s conversation is Sanctification in the Local Church, based on a recent Truth and Grace blog post. What does it mean to be sanctified? How does it shape both the individual believer and the collective health of the church? Tim and Jake explore the biblical foundations of sanctification, its connection to justification and glorification, and the active role believers play in their spiritual growth.

They also discuss the challenges and encouragements of personal holiness, the importance of community in the process of sanctification, and the responsibility of each member in fostering a spiritually healthy church. Along the way, they share personal stories, biblical insights, and practical steps for pursuing holiness together.
