The point Paul makes is that to be a leader and shepherd over the church of God, one’s character and lifestyle must reflect Christ. This goes beyond a leader’s skillset, ability to teach, preach, serve or give. Paul talks about demonstrating Christlike character related to finances, family, physical health and spiritual maturity. These godly leaders are to build their lives on the solid foundation of the Word of God and the Grace found in Jesus. They are to encourage those who are keeping step with the Holy Spirit to persevere and those who are heading the wrong way to turn back to Jesus and live.
During our study of Paul’s letter to Titus we encourage you to memorize Titus 2:11-14.
For this week continue to work on memorizing Titus 2:11:
"For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people."
Prepare for this week’s teaching by reading Titus 1:5-9
