Study of Paul's Letter to Titus


We will begin a new study tommorrow evening in the Book of Titus.
Titus, the 12th Epistle written by Paul, is one of his shortest. It is a personal letter to a dear friend and co-laborer. Similar to1 Timothy, it was written between Paul’s two Roman imprisonments, as he traveled on his 4th Missionary Journey. Paul obviously visited Crete on his way to Ephesus, and upon his departure requested Titus to remain and strengthen the churches in every city on the island. There is no Biblical record of how the Gospel first reached Crete. We do know that Cretans were among the crowd that heard the Gospel on the Day of Pentecost (Acts 2:11). Paul’s only other visit to the Island was as a prisoner being transported to Rome for trial (Acts 27:7).
Join us at 6:30 p.m. as we begin this new study.
