📖 Hidden Lessons from the Book of Titus (That Most People Miss)

Did you know the book of Titus is one of the shortest books in the New Testament? It’s just three chapters long—but it’s full of powerful advice that still matters today.

This letter was written by the apostle Paul to his trusted friend Titus, who was helping lead new churches on the island of Crete. On the surface, it might seem like Paul is just giving church rules... but if you look closer, there’s more going on.

👀 What Most People Don’t Notice About Titus

Most people focus on the instructions for choosing leaders or avoiding false teachers. But tucked inside Paul’s message is something easy to miss:

Paul talks a lot about how people live—not just what they believe.

Over and over, Paul encourages Christians to live in a way that reflects God’s goodness:

“...teach them to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives...”
— Titus 2:12 (NIV)

💬 Why Does This Matter?

Paul believed that how we live tells others about who we believe in. In other words, actions speak louder than words.

He even says this:

“...those who have trusted in God may be careful to devote themselves to doing what is good.”
— Titus 3:8

Doing good doesn’t earn our salvation—but it shows that we’ve been changed by grace.

🌱 So, What Can We Learn from Titus Today?

Here are 3 simple takeaways:

  1. Good character matters – especially for those who lead.

  2. Faith and actions work together – it’s not either-or.

  3. Quiet, kind living is powerful – you don’t need to shout to shine.

🧠 Reflect & Respond

Next time you read Titus, ask yourself:

  • Am I living in a way that shows God's grace?

  • Am I quietly doing good, even when no one sees?

  • What does “godly living” look like in my everyday life?
