Titus Week 2 Godly Leadership
In our Blueprint for a Healthy Church series, Pastor Brandon preached from Titus 1:5–9 on Godly Leadership. The big idea: When godly leadership is established, sound teaching is embraced, and believers live godly lives—the church becomes healthy and the gospel becomes believable to the watching world.
Brandon reminded us that church structures may vary across traditions, but one thing is non-negotiable: every church needs godly leaders. Paul left Titus in Crete to “set in order” what was broken and appoint elders who reflected Christ’s character. Elders are not chosen for charisma, education, or business success, but for integrity at home, faithfulness in marriage, spiritual maturity, and a life above reproach. Their calling is weighty: to watch over souls, hold firmly to the Word, encourage the faithful, and correct falsehood with humility and courage.
Yet these qualifications aren’t just for elders—they are marks of godliness for all believers. A church flourishes when leaders are blameless, humble, sober-minded, hospitable, and grounded in Scripture. More than that, these qualities ultimately point us to Jesus—the Good Shepherd, the faithful overseer, the one who gave His life for His people.
