There is nothing more destructive than the tongue. In this episode of Moment of Truth, Pastor Matt continues his study of Titus 3 and the importance of gentle persuasion. We must guard our tongue and refuse to spread gossip and slander. If we are to live the good life that leads others to Christ, we cannot resort to quarreling and fighting. While we cannot conform to this world, we must learn to share the truth of Christ in love.
The art of Persuasion is studied by business leaders, politicians, and salesman alike. Whether intentionally or not, we make an impression and an impact on others’ viewpoints all the time. Unfortunately for Christians, we often forget that our actions and words are the greatest tools we have to show others what it means to be a follower of Christ. We have a reputation of being judgmental and rebellious. In Titus 3, Pastor Matt explains that we are to be submissive to authority and to be a light to the world around us.
When was the last time you passed up the opportunity to share the gospel with someone? Discipleship and leading others to Christ is one of the core reasons for our existence! We exist to glorify God and make Him known. So why do we so often fail? Because we forget the urgency of the situation and the grace that God has given us. God’s extreme grace should be extremely motivating! In today’s episode, Pastor Matt continues his sermon on four ways we should be motivated by grace.
It takes motivation to live the good life. If we are to live the type of life that leads others to Christ, we have to be constantly motivated to disciple and share Christ with those we love. God’s extreme grace should be extremely motivating! Unfortunately, we often forget the urgency and begin to become complacent. In today’s episode, Pastor Matt reminds us that there is nothing more important than glorifying God and making Him known.
People are always attracted to authenticity. The opposite is also true, people are repulsed by inconsistency. In order to live the good life and lead others to Christ, we have to be consistent in our Christian living. It means taking the time to disciple those younger and less mature than you. It means being disciplined and self-controlled. It means working hard for those in authority over us and modeling the good life for others. Today, Pastor Matt continues studying the first 10 verses of Titus chapter 2.
People are always attracted to authenticity. The opposite is also true, people are repulsed by inconsistency. Today, Pastor Matt continues in book of Titus as he looks at Chapter 2. This chapter is all about our relationships with others. In order to live the good life and lead others to Christ, we have to be consistent in our Christian living. For those mature in the faith, it means finding younger men and women to disciple and set an example. Age is not an excuse to take it easy. Leading others to Christ is a life-long task.
Leaders are a vital part of God’s plan for the church. Titus chapter 1 is all about Godly leadership and what it means to live the good life that leads others back to Christ. An aspect of healthy church leadership is addressing falsehoods that arise, and correcting those who have been fooled. Godly leaders cannot be content to allow God's Word to be twisted for worldly gain. To live the good life we must lead others to Christ and encourage them to lead others to Christ as well.
Leaders are a vital part of God’s plan for the church. Titus chapter 1 is all about Godly leadership and what it means to live the good life that leads others back to Christ. Unfortunately, there are forces that are destroying the church from the inside-out. Part of the dirty job of leadership is recognizing that false prophets are constantly leading people astray and teaching falsehoods about God's Word. Today, Pastor Matt shares why it's important to recognize and reveal those who are twisting God's Word.
Have you ever experienced someone who acts like an angel on Sunday but acts like the devil on Monday? Scripture tells us that if we are to live the good life, we must live a life that leads others to Christ. In this episode, Pastor Matt shows how we must lead in our hearts and heads. If we are to live the good life, not only must we outwardly show the character of Christ, we must also internally fill ourselves with God’s word. A leader's best tool is their personal holiness.
We are constantly being watched. Not by Big Brother, but by your neighbors, your co-workers, your family. Your actions and what you do matters. Today Pastor Matt continues his teaching series from the book of Titus called "Living The Good Life." Scripture tells us that the Good Life is the life that leads others back to Christ. If we are to live the Good Life we must set an example of Godly character, especially in our homes. Good leadership starts by being a leader in the home.
In today's episode, Pastor Matt continues his series titled "Living The Good Life" by showing us what it means to be God's kind of leader.
