On this episode of the Blue Collar Bereans, Scott and Nate continue to tackle the good, the bad and the ugly of the Purity Culture. Yet they make it clear that even if there were some issues, that doesn’t mean we throw the whole thing out. We should do nothing to undermine the authority of God’s Word in our lives, which definitely calls us to purity.

In the last two sermon, in our series in Paul's Letter to Titus, we say Paul's instructions to Titus to appointed elders in every town on the Island of Crete, and these elders were to be above reproach. As Pastor Scott picks up the text in verse 10, of chapter 1, we see the reason Titus was to appoint such elders, was that disqualified leaders were rising up, who were false teachers. Therefore, Crete, like the church everywhere, needed elders who held to the trustworthy word, as taught, so that they cold teach sound doctrine and rebuke those who contradicted it. There are many teachers today that contradict sound doctrine, who are a danger to the church. Therefore the need for such qualified leaders is as real today as it has been throughout church history. 

Here in part 2 of Leading Your Family, Nate and Scott discuss the importance of leading our homes in such a way that we are raising our kids and teaching them the ways of the Lord, preaching the Gospel to them and regularly sitting down and teaching them from God's Word.

Under God's design parents are responsible to raise their children to know and love the Lord, though salvation is always dependent on God, alone, and His work in the heart of our children. Also, our Lord has laid on husbands and fathers, specifically, the responsibility to lead their wives and children. This is a great and awesome responsibility. One we did not ask for, yet none the less one we have. Join Nate and Scott as they discuss the importance of leading our homes.
