The Living Room: Titus 2 Women
After Jesus’ death and resurrection, but before he ascended to heaven, he gave his disciples this final command - “Go and make disciples of all nations”. As disciples of Jesus, this command remains the same for us today. In Titus 2, we see how, as women, we have a unique responsibility to be discipling the next generation of female disciples.
Clare Merkel will help us reflect on how we are living lives that are promoting gospel truth. And how we can be teaching and training others – particularly women – how to be living lives that reflect gospel truth, through the fostering of Titus 2 relationships.
