OUR IDENTITY
We are women who know the joy of the Spirit-filled life.
We are women who know the joy of the Spirit-filled life. We live and abide in the love of Jesus, trusting that He is enough to meet every need and satisfy every heart.
"Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it."
I THESSALONIANS 5:23-24 NKJV
We joyfully live in the beauty and sweetness of the crucified life through the indwelling Holy Spirit. We choose to answer Jesus’ invitation to lay down our self-will and freely offer all we are and all we have to be His home. We no longer need to live life in our own strength. His Holy Spirit is our source of life, and our privilege is simply to “abide in Him.”
OUR PASSION
We joyfully live in the beauty of the crucified life.
"I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me."
GALATIANS 2:20 NKJV
OUR PURPOSE
We teach and train other women.
We find our place in the Great Commission in Titus 2:3-5 which instructs women in the faith who know the reality of “all of me for all of Jesus” to teach and train other women.
"Older women…teach what is good…
train the younger women..."
TITUS 2:3-5 NLT
OUR STORY
Titus Women began when Beth Coppedge and her husband, Al, waited upon Jesus for direction for their lives when they were first married. Beth says, “We felt God calling us to teach the Word and to disciple men and women in the gospel of Jesus Christ." Al faithfully began teaching and discipling students as a seminary professor. Beth felt drawn to Titus 2:3-5. She began to teach the Word and mentor women from her home, literally from her kitchen table. From that table the ministry of Titus Women began. Today, thousands of women around the world have been equipped and discipled through the encouragement of Titus Women.
As a ministry we feel this is still our mission: teaching women the beauty of the gospel and discipling women to give “all of me for all of Jesus” (1 Thessalonians 5:23-24). This of course is the call that Titus 2:3-5 gives for the older women in the faith to teach the younger ones about a love relationship with God that affects all areas of life. As you can see from these verses, this is an incredible life calling to “Titus” (disciple) not only our physical children, but our spiritual as well. This call, plus Jesus’ Great Commission to disciple people of all nations (talk about a God-sized vision) from Matthew 28:18-20, has led us to think in terms of life-to-life investment in others, which is discipleship.
