Titus

Written by Paul and delivered by Zenas and Apollos, this brief letter is dense with words of wisdom and instruction. Titus was a valued associate of Paul, but he was entrusted with a difficult task, leading the church on the island of Crete. This island was known for moral depravity and finding leaders among them has clearly presented a challenge for Titus. Paul writes, not only to encourage, but also to advise Titus. In his letter, Paul makes many cultural and geographical references that have significant theological implications. A mere 3 chapters long, Paul provides a wealth of insight.
