In this message from Titus 1, Pastor Robbie connects the church’s call to send missionaries with the call to guard the church through sound doctrine. Using Dave and Julie’s upcoming move to South America as a real-life example, he shows how healthy doctrine fuels mission—and how false teaching can stunt spiritual growth.
Key themes:
- The church’s role is to send workers so people can hear the gospel and be saved.
- Elders must hold firmly to “sound doctrine” (healthy teaching) and be able to refute error.
- What we believe (doctrine) should always shape how we live (behavior).
- False teachers often sound spiritual but distort core truths and harm God’s people.
- Every believer must be in the Word regularly to grow and to discern truth from error.

Questions to consider:
