When’s the last time you received a gift that you didn’t open? Probably never! We can’t wait to unwrap gifts that our loved ones have picked out just for us. But often, that’s exactly what we do with one of God’s greatest gifts. It’s a gift George Bailey received in It’s a Wonderful Life—and one Ruth and Naomi received in real life—in the Bible.

Think of the surprising turning points in your life. I’m talking about those random conversations, chance encounters, and off-the-cuff decisions that seemed insignificant but ended up changing the course of your life. We might chalk these moments up to coincidence, but Scripture shows us otherwise.

Sometimes it feels like God isn’t doing anything in your life—or worse, like He’s forgotten you. If life has ever crumbled around you, in spite of how hard you prayed, you know the feeling I’m talking about. God is the One we’re supposed to turn to with our disappointments. But where do you turn when God is the One who has disappointed you?

God can work through you. In fact, He already is. We know how God’s grace affects us as individuals—both for salvation and for daily life. But in this episode of Live the Bible, the practical chapter of Titus 3 teaches us how we as individuals can affect others for God.

“Be good.” Those two words could summarize most sermons we hear on Sundays. Imagine if that’s all we heard! That would shorten things up a bit, wouldn’t it? In this week’s episode of Live the Bible, the apostle Paul tells us in Titus 2 not only to “be good,” but also HOW to do it. The secret is the grace of God.

We could summarize most sermons in two words. “Be good.” Yep, amen. But in this episode of ​Live the Bible​, we’ll discover why we should be good—and how we can.
Paul’s second chapter to Titus continues our series with practical words for our Christian lives.
