The church I was raised in held to that same position but in all actuality there was not a lot of teaching on the doctrine of sanctification. When i started studying on the doctrine for myself i came to the beliefs that i hold to now.
The place where our disagreement centers is the word "PROCESS". I would say that sanctification is an instantaneous work or act on God's part and an experience with lasting ongoing effects on our part rather than a process.
