Deacons: Fuel on the Fire

In Acts 2, 4, and 6, we see the early church thriving, but also facing challenges like persecution, corruption, and distraction. Deacons were crucial in addressing these issues, helping the church focus on its mission. This sermon explores the key role deacons play in unlocking greater ministry by supporting the Word, protecting unity, and solving practical problems. We'll look at the qualities needed in deacons, such as Christ-like character a focus on ministry growth, and outline how we can raise up deacons who fuel the church’s mission for God's glory.
