The Book of Titus
Grace that changes us — sound doctrine that leads to good and godly living.
Overview
Titus is a short, practical letter about the link between what we believe and how we live. Paul instructs Titus to appoint good leaders and to teach sound doctrine that produces genuinely changed lives.
Its heart is the grace of God, which not only saves us but trains us to live self-controlled, upright, godly lives while we wait for our blessed hope.

Key verses from Titus
Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
Grace both saves us and shapes how we live.
