THE CHURCH IS THE COMMUNITY OF GOD’S PEOPLE WHO ARE HELD AND BOUND TOGETHER BY THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST. IT’S CRITICAL THEN, THAT THE GOSPEL REMAINS CENTRAL FOR THE CHURCH. THIS LETTER FROM PAUL TO A YOUNG PASTOR CALLED TITUS IS A CALL TO KEEP THE GOSPEL CENTRAL TO THE CHURCH—CENTRAL TO THE LEADERSHIP, CENTRAL TO THE CHURCH’S EVERYDAY LIFE, AND CENTRAL TO ITS MISSION TO THE WORLD.
