Reflect
When you examine your life, would you consider yourself a servant of Christ?
Where do you invest your time and energy – on worldly things or on the things of God?
If an individual were to examine your life, would they perceive you as someone who merely professes their beliefs without embodying them, or would they observe a person who consistently practices their faith every day?
What kind of teaching are you listening to?
If you serve in a leadership role in your home, church, work and community – what kind of an example of Christ are you?
How can we ensure that we are maintaining our personal integrity in alignment with the qualifications of church leaders as outlined in Titus?
What steps can we take to cultivate a pure heart and remain rooted in biblical truth?
How do you distinguish between different voices and teachings in your life, and how can you find the 'true truth'?
How can you demonstrate self-discipline in your personal life, and why is it important?
Why is it important to seek out good teaching, and how can you identify it in your life?
