On The Way - Episode 1: Titus 1:1-4

Titus 1:1-4 Discussion Questions

1. Talk about the difference between knowledge and wisdom. How does studying Scripture differentiate from studying other books and give us wisdom to discern God's will?
2. Talk to the group about your Scripture reading habits. How much, how often, and what version do you read?
3. Paul told Christians that the old covenant is "obsolete" (Hebrews 8:13). Why is it significant to us that Titus (a Greek gentile) refused to get circumcised?
4. The church leaders in Crete allowed the worship of Zeus to creep into the Christian church, and it caused them to use deceptive rather than truthful tactics. What are some gods that Christians today are tempted to combine with Christianity? Does our allegiance to financial gain, nationalism, comfort, or anything else threaten to distort our understanding of God's truth?
5. Discipleship is followership. Why do so many people call themselves Christians without actually following Jesus and without actually surrendering to the Christian mission?
