Lessons from Titus

The Tuesday morning study group is going through Titus this semester. This is a compact letter, that when unpacked, is loaded with tons of truth, and practical application for living out a faith filled life.

So, wow, have I fallen short in so many areas of Christian living.

Titus tells us three reasons we should be compelled to follow the instructions regarding Biblical womanhood. First, (2:5) we don't want to dishonor the Word of God. Second, (2:8) so that others may be embarrassed...the way a child is when you point out someyhing wrong they just did, which causes them to say sorry and correct their behavior. And last, (2:10) that we may adorn the Word of God. In other words, our actions match our words. (walk the talk)

So...I am reflecting on my behavior, my beliefs, and what the Bible has to say to women. Looking forward to unwrapping more from this little letter!
