Titus 1:1-4

Like both letters to Timothy, this pastoral letter to Titus offers guidance and instruction to a younger church leader. Paul's theme is the unbreakable link between faith and practice and belief and behavior. The gospel produces godliness in the lives of believers starting with church leaders who teach well and live well. Good works have an important place in the lives of believers empowered by the redemptive work of the Holy Spirit.
