In volume offers insight and guidance regarding this new
ministerial order both to those who are called into the diaconate,
and those among whom they will minister. The book begins by
locating the office of deacon within the larger United Methodist
understanding the ministry of all God's people and of ordained
ministers. Drawing on the stories of those whom God has called and
ordained to the ministry of deacon, the authors portray the crucial
link between the worship of the church and service to the world
that is central to the office of deacon. The book concludes with
answers to common questions asked by deacons and the churches in
which their ministry takes place: Who pays for insurance? What
about pensions? What responsibilities do deacons have to the
congregations that hire them, and what to the conferences of which
they are members?
