The Biblical Basis for Diaconal Ministry Expanded into 21 st Centruy roles

The Context of the Urban Diaconate Review the video presentations at The Places We Live The Places We Live Diaconal Leadership models The Pastoral Epistles have much to say about leadership emergence, both ministry leadership (dealing with the spiritual) and diaconal leadership (dealing with the economic needs). There has been a perennial tension between these two sides of ministry throughout history, the most recent being within the Laussanne Movement which holds many world evangelicals together.

The Biblical Material – the Deacon/ess in the Local Church Review the passages in the pastoral epistles (Acts 6:1-6; Phil 1:1;1 Tim 3:8-12) on the qualities, functions and roles of deacons and deaconesses in the local church. How do these roles contrast with those of an elder or overseer (cc Acts 20:17-28; Titus 1:5-7; 1 Peter 5:1-2; 1 Timothy 3:1-7) a. teach and preach(1 Tim 3:2;5:17) b. direct the affairs of the church (1 Tim 3:5; 5:17) c. shepherd the flock (Acts 20:28) d. guard the church from error (Acts 20:28-31) ?
