This week we started a new series on the book of Titus. We saw through chapter 1 that Paul had left Titus on the Island of Crete to advance the gospel and grow the Church. Crete was known for being a rough place where the people were described as lying, evil, lazy brutes and so Paul gave Titus a list of qualifications to look for in the leaders that were Monday-Sunday qualifications. He instructed Titus to find men who lived counter culturally in every aspect of their lives so that the knowledge of truth could lead to godliness in the lives of all who followed them. The call is the same for us today. Our hearts should be transformed by the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ so that in every home, community and city we are in people can see our lives as a reflection of the qualities of the One we follow. Listen in as Bri, Ian, Jeff and Angie share their takeaways from this week's teaching.

Our hope and prayer is that through the Beyond the Building podcast you would continue the conversation of God's Word in your home, on your campus, in your workplace and neighborhood so His gospel can be shared with all.
