We're continuing in our series studying the last book of the Old Testament, Malachi, picking up in Chapter 2 starting from verse 1 and reading through verse 17.

In Ch 2, God's people ask the question: "How have we wearied You [God]?" and He responds with a call to honor his name, carry out his work, and care for his people. Ultimately, God calls his people to repentance so they can live out their call to live fully devoted to him.

That same call is true for us today. Let's learn more about this, together!

How can we lead with others? Titus 3:12-15 outlines how: by working with and complimentary each other in ministry. Ministry simple means to serve. From our text, Pastor Dusty outlines three ways we can lead well with others:

1. Affirm What is Profitable (v. 8)

2. Avoid What is Unprofitable (v.9)

3. Confront the Divisive (v. 10-11)

In this message, we're examining Malachi 2 - 3, focusing on how God calls us to give Him the best of our resources. Let's step into this call by learning and applying this passage of scripture, so we can accurately and genuinely reflect Jesus Christ to each person we encounter.

Leadership is influence. Therefore, we are all leaders. As followers of Jesus Christ, we are called to use our influence for God’s glory through wisdom and discernment, Titus 3:8-11 reminds of the 3 very important truths:

1️⃣ We are called to live in unity (v8)

2️⃣ We are called to be different not divisive (v9)

3️⃣ We are called to be discipline not destructive (v10-11)

In terms of leadership and magnifying the impact of our influence for the glory of God and the advancement of the gospel, Titus 3v1-8 reminds of 3 very important truths:

1️⃣ Our lifestyle is our testimony — and our testimony matters

2️⃣ The Challenge is clear — we must bear Christ’s winsomeness to those in opposition to Him

3️⃣ The Gospel is our hope — it is the only power available to meet God’s demands

So often what is taught or presented regarding grace is incomplete, some would call “cheap grace”. We are presented or taught only about the forgiveness of sins and so we think that grace stops there - that grace stops at salvation. Yet here we see that from the Apostle Paul that grace teaches us and empowers us to live for God.

In this message, we examine Titus 2:1-10. From this chapter, Paul explains how, as Christians, we are to lead by example. In this section, Paul touches provides standards Christians in every season of life, from the younger generation to the older generation to the workplace. In each season of life, we are to become more like Christ and reflect more and more Him every day.

In this message, we're examine Titus 1:10-16. From this chapter, Paul warns Titus and the people he will be speaking to about the deceptive teaching people were sharing during that time. Through this warning, we learn that when we are sound in faith and understand the simplicity of the Gospel we recognize the need for correction while maintaining hope for the sinner.

In this message, we're examine Titus 1:5-9. From this passage of scripture, we learn the what, the who, and the why of Paul's letter to Titus. Studying these verses, we can takeaway that a Christian leader’s example demonstrates to others the gospel and its power are real.
