A retired apostle of The Church of Pentecost, Francis Ofori-Yeboah, has paid glowing tributes to lay leaders in churches, specifically The Church of Pentecost, charging them to remain faithful and exemplary.
He made this call at the launch of his latest book, "Titus: The Excellent Leader".
In the 152-page book, the retired apostle underscored how instrumental Titus was to the ministry of Apostle Paul despite being a lay leader. "Paul's epistle was meant to guide Titus as he was sent to Crete, an ancient island in Europe where the lives of Christians were characterized by lies, laziness, immoral acts, doctrinal imbalances, and a detachment from spiritual truth" a situation the retired apostle sadly notes mirrors some Christians in Ghana today.
Apostle Paul's epistle to Titus, a lay leader converted to the faith through his ministry, therefore "presents today's Christian leaders' rich theological insights, pastoral counselling and timeless truths applicable to the present generation" one he notes aligns with the 2025 theme of the Church that is "living a life worthy of my calling".
