DEACONS: MEN OF MINISTRY

 

The deacons are an important part of the life and ministry of the church! In this seminar, we see how the Bible describes the work of deacons, and how they can fulfill their ministry to the church through the service they provide.
 
We begin by discussing the twofold function of the church. Then we discover how the deacon fits into the overall plan for the church as described in scripture. Special emphasis is placed on the practical ministry of service by the deacons. We give ideas on how to raise up more servants for ministry, how to organize, how to have an effective meeting, the relationship of the deacons to the elders and minister(s), how deacons can set goals and plan strategies for their work, and more!

WHAT THEY'RE SAYING

 

"Jim McLoud’s seminar on the biblical functioning deacon is superb! ...Jim taught us how to lead the church by God’s laws and not by-laws. This was done by teaching us how the New Testament church handled the work of the Lord’s church. Then he listened to how we operate and made suggestions that could improve our work. Every answer he gave was scriptural as well as friendly...His presentation left us enthused and eager to do whatever it takes to glorify God." - Jack King, North Baltimore, OH

“The open discussion that took place during our time together provided insight to many of us... I honestly felt an immediate sense of teamwork and commitment to our Father’s purpose.” - Dan Berger, Greenford OH
