This pastoral epistle to Titus is written by Paul to one of his spiritual sons, Titus. The bishop of the greek island of Crete, Titus is really applicable to us, today.
1. The Faithfulness of God. The God who does not lie!
2. The ability for Christ to change us, and we can affect a community
3. God's Mercy saves us

Wow, I loved diving back into this letter. It teaches me of Christ and how I want to be better and a good disciple.

Paul writes 3 letters to to the Bishops of the congregations in the area.
Timothy is the Bishop of Ephesus. He is young and while Ephesus is a great congregation, there are challenges. Paul gives Timothy advice (Tim is Paul's protege) about doctrine and practical application.
Titus is the Bishop in Crete. The Cretan church has its own challenges.
Paul writes to advise on both
1. Doctrine of Christ
2. Practical Application

These are awesome letters. How to shepherd your ward, help in your calling. I love these letters and you will, too.

I still love these letters. So easy to read, so heartfelt, so focused on the Savior and practical applications.
