Big Idea:

You might not have visited Nicopolis, but I guarantee you’ve been there spiritually. Most people don’t typically read or teach from the last few verses of Paul’s writings. They usually contain some greeting or final instruction and as such, it’s typically glanced over. Which got me thinking. If the Church cared enough to debate the inclusion of these letters into our Scriptures, then there has to be something here for us. It’s life before Nicopolis. You’ve been there. For some life before Nicopolis has been going on a while. For others you’re not there yet. For some it might even start today. To be sure, sometimes we have walked away from God. Sometimes there is a need for new discipline or getting our doctrines/deeds straight like we learned last week. But always search your heart, receive wise counsel, pray and read Scripture first: not always are the mundane seasons evidence of spiritual apathy. Sometimes…it’s life before Nicopolis, just like Titus did. What do we do then? How do we keep LEGIT and genuine character? We stay productive for Christ in the mundane. Bloom where we’re planted.
