Our work, The Deacon is intended as a deacon-training tool that is Word-of-God centered, thorough, to the point and an easy read in a conversational style format.
The deacon is an office bearer of Christ, being publicly recognized before the church, community and world as one who is part of the formal sphere of caretakers for the church of Christ, “doing the work of mercy as an expression of the Word in deed.”
The needs are endless but our God has endless resources; the wounds are deep but you serve as a healing balm; the flexibility to meet those needs is limited by your willingness to dream big; your worth is not defined by waiting tables but rather enhanced by being identified with the one who washed feet; your victory certain and calling in Him secure and “if God is for us, who can ever be against us” (Romans 8:31)? Amen.
