"Deacons and the Church is a comprehensive overview of the
permanent diaconate that provides a unique combination of
theological reflection, historical analysis, and pastoral problems
and issues. Written by a permanent deacon, it sets as point of
departure the restoration of the diaconate at Vatican II. From
there, it follows the history of the diaconate from Jesus onward,
pausing to consider to those who serve as stellar examples of
deacons for deacons: Lawrence of Rome, Ephrem of Nisibis, Francis
of Assisi, and Nicholas Ferrer of Little Gidding. He discusses the
deacon and liturgy, reflects on the spirituality of the deacon, the
dysfunctional deacon, and the interface between the sacraments of
Holy Orders and Matrimony. With its one-of-a-kind combination of
theological, historical, and pastoral emphasis, enhanced by the
personal experience of the author, this book is a must-have for
deacons and anyone interested in the diaconate.
