Hope for the Future
“Over twelve years ago now, it was my privilege to follow a Titus Interim into the pulpit and ministry of Manzanita Baptist Church.
I was told the church had been swept clean, all the cobwebs and difficulties had been taken care of, and that when I arrived on the scene I was to hit the ground running because the church was ready and poised for new leadership and growth.
I have been running ever since. Thank God for a church that knew it was in trouble and needed a full time intentional interim to address issues that had remained untouchable for years.
Thank God for a passionate godly couple who knew what to do and went about doing it with a sense of Biblical wisdom, purpose and excellence.
Thank God for a church willing to be taught, counseled, rebuked, and led into the future with a new sense of purpose and direction.
It took great courage and wisdom for this church to admit the need for outside help. I am one of Titus’ most vocal cheerleaders because we have personally benefited directly from a carefully laid out plan, set before the leadership as well as the people, to get the church back to health and a future hope.
After close to forty years of ministry, Manzanita was a church in trouble, in decline, and in conflict, now MBC is approaching its fiftieth year of ministry and our church fellowship is still healthy and looking with more hope than ever to the future.
I whole heartily recommend Titus.”

Sometimes we laugh that ministry would be easy... if it weren't for people! The truth is, people are the absolute crux of ministry. The buildings and budgets pale into insignificance in light of a human soul.
Yet in ministry, it is easy to get caught up in everything but people. Books don't complain. Office equipment never talks about you behind your back. As a pastor, all the "other things" can creep into your life, squeezing out the chance to impact lives.
Attending a Titus Seminar doesn't simply prepare you for the life of an intentional interim pastor. The truth is, any pastor in any position can benefit from a Titus Seminar.
Why?
Because the tools you learn at these seminars are immediately applicable to ministry in any local church. Learn how to end divisive behavior. Find out why churches cycle downward unless they consciously apply certain principles that contribute towards health and growth. You'll discover easy techniques that take the most explosive categories in most churches and reduce them to non-issues.
The seminars are packed full of information you can use right away, and you'll never be bored.
If you're interested in registering for a seminar to give you some additional tools for ministry, please see the Upcoming Events page. You can also register online on our Homepage .
