The Book of Titus
Titus is a short, practical letter from the apostle Paul to a trusted coworker left on the island of Crete to finish organizing young churches. In three brief chapters Paul shows how sound doctrine and good works belong together: he describes the kind of elders to appoint, the false teachers to silence, and the way each group in the church—older and younger, men and women, free and enslaved—should live. At the heart of it all is grace: the grace of God that has appeared in Jesus Christ, bringing salvation, training us to renounce ungodliness, and making us a people zealous for good works as we await the blessed hope of his appearing.
