About Us
Welcome to a growing community of women committed to living out the calling of Titus 2:3-5.
“Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live… to teach what is good. Then they can urge the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled and pure…”
— Titus 2:3-5
This ministry was birthed from a deep burden the Lord placed on the heart of Liny Pappu—a desire to see women of all ages walking together in discipleship, grounded in God’s Word. Liny has been faithfully discipling women in both India and the U.S., and recently completed her studies in Women’s Ministries at Moody Bible Institute.
Her vision is simple yet powerful: to equip and encourage women to live out their God-given roles with joy, reverence, and purpose and then teach and disciple others to do the same.
Through this online platform, older Christian women (Titus 2:3 mentors) will offer classes on various topics—from biblical womanhood and marriage, to spiritual growth and homemaking. Younger women will be able to register, select topics, and walk with a mentor in a spirit of love, accountability, and growth.
You’re invited to prayerfully consider your role in this mission:
-
Are you called to teach and encourage younger women in their walk with Christ?
-
Do you long to grow into the woman God has called you to be, with guidance from someone who has walked before you?
If you feel led to join this online ministry—either as a mentor or a student—please send your half-size profile photo and a short bio to linypappu@gmail.com.
“Whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.”
— Matthew 5:19b
We believe every woman has a part to play in the Kingdom. Let’s walk together in obedience, for His glory.
Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good. Then they can urge the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God.
– Titus 2:3–5
