In Titus 3:8-11, the Apostle Paul says there are teachings and discussions that are GOOD & BENEFICIAL and teachings and discussions that are FOOLISH & DIVISIVE. As Christians, we “devote” ourselves to that which is good and beneficial and “refuse to get involved” with that which is foolish and divisive. As you watch this message, allow yourself to take a deep-gospel breath and regain your eternal perspective.

What we believe shapes how we behave and how we behave demonstrates what we believe. And for the Christian, the world watches how we behave more closely than what we believe.
