Imagine you're telling your friend how great your brother or sister is at something, and when they meet, they see it's really true! That's like what Paul did with the Corinthians; he said good things about them to Titus, and it was all real!
Historical Background

Living It Out Today
Today, if you're boasting about someone or something, make sure it's true. For example, if you recommend a friend for a job based on their skills, ensure your claims are accurate to avoid letting them down or damaging your credibility.
