5 - Grace & Training, Titus 2:11-15

June 9, 2019 • Josh Lindstrom

The life we are called to live in Christ is not one that will occur naturally to us. It is a gift of grace and requires a conscious decision “training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age” (Titus 2:12). As fellow recipients of his grace, we unabashedly encourage each other to the pattern of life he has called us to.

1. Grace has appeared (v. 11)
2. Train accordingly (vs. 12-13)
a. Renounce sin (v. 12a)
b. Live righteously (v. 12b)
c. With joy (vs. 12c-13)
3. Always remember (v. 14)
4. Speak truth (v. 15)

7 - Avoid & Learn, Titus 3:9-15

June 23, 2019 • Josh Lindstrom

While we would hope that all would respond to biblical correction in their lives, some, even after being duly warned, will persist in the error of our ways. We are to separate ourselves from those who stir up division and instead devote ourselves “to good works, so as to help cases of urgent need” (Titus 3:14). 1. What to avoid (vs. 9-11) 2. What to support (vs. 12-14) 3.

6 - Obedient & Ready, Titus 3:1-8

June 16, 2019 • Josh Lindstrom

Living godly lives does not preclude us from interacting with the world but, on the contrary, should encourage us “to be ready for every good work” (Titus 3:1). Recognizing what Christ has done for us, we seek to follow his example and have a positive and beneficial impact on those around us. 1. Our example (vs. 1-2) 2. Our past (v. 3) 3. Our salvation (vs. 4-7) 4. Our purpose (v. 8) Songs: Glorious Day #7081388 by J Ingram, J Smith, K Stanfill & S Curran © Fellow Ships Music Follow You Anywhere #7123196 by B Younker, K Stanfill, J Ingram & P Wickham 2019 Kristian Stanfill Publishing Designee O Praise The Name (Anástasis) #7037787 by B Hastings, D Ussher & M Sampson 2015 © Hillsong Music Publishing Before The Throne Of God Above #2306412 by C L Bancroft & V Cook 1997 Sovereign Grace Worship Exalted Over All #7065022 by A Rozier, J Ingram & J Cates 2016 © All Essential Music

4 - Sound Doctrine & Self-Control, Titus 2:1-10

June 2, 2019 • Josh Lindstrom

Sound doctrine should lead to right behavior, and in Titus 2:1-10 the apostle Paul gives specific instruction for various groups within the church. While it can be counter-cultural to modern ears, Paul’s direction finds its foundation in the gospel itself and highlights the behaviors that make not only families strong, but creates churches that point an unbelieving world to Jesus. 1. Teach sound doctrine (v. 1) a. Older men (v. 2) b. Older women (vs. 3-4a) c. Younger women (vs. 4b-5) d. Younger men (v. 6) 2. Be an example (v. 7-8) a.
