34 for 30: Day 15 - Titus

Date: 63-66AD Chapters: 3 Author: Paul - The relationships, and really the model between the older and younger men and women should not go unnoticed. The model of Christ is to be followed and the longer it is lived, the more wisdom is evident. We shouldn't so easily dismiss our older Christian brothers and sisters as they have something significant to contribute to the Body of Christ. For those who like to have a checklist handy, there is plenty to pursue in this book. One other thing I though about was when Paul spoke of not speaking evil of anyone, avoid quarreling, be gentle and show perfect courtesy toward all people. Even that bit of advice would change our culture dramatically. In our church we are reminded not to give bad reports and to keep the circle small when it comes to disagreements. Speak to someone you have an issue with directly and gently. Don't gossip and spread the evil. It is dangerous.
