In this episode, Papa Teach answers the question: What is the purpose or significance of addressing others as 'Brother' or 'Sister' before their name in Christian circles, or using the title 'Pastor'? He explains that using these titles is a sign of honor to the household of God. As children of God, we belong to a household of faith, which is why the first-century church referred to each other as "Brother" and "Sister."

When it comes to titles like "Pastor" and "Teacher," the Bible teaches us the importance of rendering honor where honor is due. Showing honor can pave the way for the Lord to move mightily in the Body of Christ. Papa Teach also discusses the protocol for when and why it is important to use these titles. He emphasizes that referring to others as "Brother" and "Sister" in Christ affirms their identity, heritage, and reinforces the bond of community.
