This week when we gathered, Maël D. taught from Titus 1:5-9. Maël D. pointed the body to visit his blog post in reference to his views on the distinctions between ministers, pastors/elders, and overseers/bishops. Paul points to three criteria for recognizing an elder. These criteria will help recognize a person who characterizes the list that follows, beginning in verse 7. This list, as well as the list in 1 Timothy 3:1-7, is not meant to be exhaustive, but to characterize the blamelessness of an elder. Maël D. challenged the body to examine ourselves in light of these characteristics.

Next Sunday, Anthony C. will teach from Titus 1:10-16.

It was also announced that we will begin meeting at The Cotton Company beginning May 6th.
