Guest Episode with Nathan Birt: Titus 1, The Qualifications of a Pastor

Our very first ever guest co-host is a very good friend of ours: Nathan Birt. Nathan serves as the children’s pastor at Lancaster Baptist Church in Lancaster, CA, and he has also recently co-authored a devotional book on revival with Dr. John Goetsch. He also happens to be Curt’s brother-in-law! Nathan joins us today to break down the qualifications of a pastor from Titus chapter 1. The culture on the island of Crete stood in stark contrast to the kind of men God was calling to lead the churches in Crete, and we discuss why all of these items are such a big deal. Why be so strict, why be so specific, and does a list list this still hold any value in the 21st century church? We answer all of these questions and more!
As usual, you can count on us to veer wildly off topic from time to time. We delve into the theology of Daniel Tiger, which Greek words sound like medication, and reminisce about “the good old days” when we all were in Bible college together. You won’t want to miss this one!
