Description:
Views on the roles of deacons vary widely among evangelical Christians. What does Scripture actually teach about deacons and their role in the church? Views range from deacons being the board of directors, to the church building maintenance crew. Strauch states that his purpose in writing this book is “to encourage my deacon friends and fellow church leaders to think more critically about what they are saying, what they are doing, and what Scripture actually teaches about deacons.” Whatever your view of deacons may be, this study will help you examine in detail the biblical fact on deacons, allowing those facts to guide your thinking. This book offers the opportunity to build broader agreement among our Bible-believing churches as to what deacons do. Known for his deep love for the church and for his careful Bible exegesis, Strauch’s study cannot be ignored by churches that are committed to following a biblical church polity. Duration - 3h 47m. Author - Alexander Strauch. Narrator - Micah Howery. Published Date - Tuesday, 30 January 2024. Copyright - © 2017 Alexander Strauch ©.
