Teachers of Good Things Practical Piety | Mary Beeke | CovCon'26

Good afternoon, ladies.

Nice to see all of you here.

If you have a copy of the Bible with you, just please turn to Titus 2.

And we'll be reading verses 1 to 5.

And while you're turning there, I would just like to say that if you and I know the Lord, we're wealthy.

And even if we're not very wealthy in this world's goods, we're still wealthy because we have the Lord.

We have a wealth that money can't buy.

And if we truly have that wealth, then we want to share it with others.

So that's what we're going to be talking about today.

Titus 2, verses 1 to 5.

But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine, that the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience.

The aged women likewise, that they be in behavior as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things.

that they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, to be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God may be not blasphemed.

Let's pray.

Dear Lord, would thou please gather with us.

Lord, please give me wisdom as I speak about these very important and beautiful words in Titus 2.

And help each one of us to examine ourselves by these words and to look at our situation in life and ask, am I walking with thee? Am I taking the wealth and And the riches that I have in Christ and sharing them with others.

Lord, please hear our prayer and go with us now, we pray.

And be with each one of us in our situation in life.

With the joys and with the burdens.

We ask it all for Jesus' sake.

Amen.
