description: From the book of Titus we see that self-control is an essential component to living a faithful Christian life. The grace of God teaches us to live self-controlled lives motivated by the cross and the return of Christ and equipped by the Holy Spirit. Self-control will both rescue us from ship-wrecking our lives and more positively help us live more effective Christian lives helping us reach the end of our lives without regrets. From using our time through growing in wisdom to becoming self-controlled in the use of our tongue in drink sex money and exercise (to name just a few areas) we see how putting self-control at the heart of discipleship is hugely beneficial to us. When we fail there is a fresh start in the gospel.
