The Bible never divorces doctrine from duty or truth from behavior. Paul describes to Titus what can be summed up into one word discipleship. That discipleship takes place through multigenerational ministry. As one generation helps another through teaching, encouraging and walking side-by-side the church not only grows but mature and becomes healthy.

Pastor Bill Gowder Titus 1:5-9 Titus has been left in Crete to set things in order. One of those is to elect elders to lead the church. Paul makes it clear to Titus, that not just anyone can shepherd and lead the bride of Christ.
