In today’s episode, Stephen Davey takes us on a journey through Titus 1, highlighting the dangers of spiritual con artists in the church. We’ve all heard about con artists who scam people out of their savings with counterfeit goods or fake investment opportunities. But what happens when these con artists don’t just target your wallet, but your soul? Spiritual con artists are skilled in wrapping up lies with just enough truth to make them seem genuine. Their teachings may look good on the surface, but they leave believers spiritually impoverished and confused.

Paul instructed Titus to be on the lookout for such teachers—those with empty promises and deceptive motivations. They seek power and prestige while offering nothing of true spiritual value. In this episode, you’ll learn how to identify the characteristics of false teachers, protect yourself and your family, and remain grounded in sound doctrine. The gospel is our only hope, and we need leaders who won’t shy away from proclaiming it, even in the face of those who would twist it for their own gain. Join us as we learn to discern the truth, safeguard our hearts, and stay the course on our journey of faith.
