Because of Jesus...
Leaders Worth Following
What does it truly mean to lead in a way that points others toward Jesus? In this message drawn from Titus chapter 1, we explore a portrait of godly leadership that challenges every one of us, not just those who hold a title or fill a role. Paul writes to Titus with a clear mission: appoint trustworthy men to lead the churches in Crete. But the qualities he lists go far beyond professional credentials or public reputation. He points us to the home, to the marriage, to the way a man handles his temper and his money and his appetites, because character lived out in private is the truest measure of a person. The central insight here is both convicting and liberating: godly leadership is not about position, it is about formation. It is about becoming, day by day, someone whose life makes it easier for the people around them to see what Jesus looks like. As we sit with this passage together, we are invited to stop evaluating others from a distance and instead hold up the mirror to our own hearts. Where is our faith most visible? Where does it go quiet? These are the questions that move us forward on the journey of becoming more like Christ.
