Book excerpt: Dynamic Deacons provides a simple, straightforward look at the work of a deacon. The goal is to help you become more confident and effective as a leader. As a result, you will enjoy your job more, become better at it, and be less susceptible to burnout. The book is divided into five chapters. Chapter One deals with the role of a deacon. It explains what the job entails and why it is vital to the fulfillment of the church's mission. No one can do more to brighten the church's future than those who devote their lives to supporting her shepherds. Chapter Two takes a look at the requirements of a deacon. Ten benchmarks of spiritual maturity must be attained to serve in this special capacity. The meaning and importance of each qualification will be considered. In Chapter Three, the focus will be on the responsibilities of a deacon. Deacons are men with a proven ability to get things done. Through clarity, initiative, teamwork, and accountability, they develop a track record of consistent success. Dynamic deacons always find a way forward. The relationships of a deacon take center stage in Chapter Four. Four crucial associations form the circle of success for spiritual leaders. Learn how to leverage these connections to improve your ministry. Finally, Chapter Five builds motivation for service by examining the rewards of a deacon. Though frequent flyer miles and cash back incentives are not available, God definitely has a rewards program for those who serve well. Whether you are a veteran, rookie, or hopeful candidate, Dynamic Deacons will give you the working knowledge you need to succeed. If you aspire to become a deacon, this book will provide you with a clear path for preparation. If you are a newly appointed deacon, it will help you sprint out of the starting gate and make the most of your early days. If you are an experienced deacon, you will find it useful for reflecting on your calling and renewing your ministry.

Book excerpt: Indifference toward deacon development places the church in a precarious state. By and large, congregations stand to be weakened by deacons who have not discovered the exciting possibilities of the office. When pastor and congregation disregard the need to have trained deacons, the office is allowed to recede into one of mere honor rather than service established in Christ. On the other hand, trained deacons or those in training discover exciting opportunities with which the office of deacons is filled. They come to perceive the office as one of service rather than honor. The church is strengthened exceedingly by their effective and efficient leadership under the sight of the pastor. Unquestionable, God is looking for a special breed of deacons-a New Testament breed who are Spirit-filled and qualified. To say that deacons are qualified is to say also that they are trained for the work of deacons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether you are in a new church or a more established one, if you have a congregation, you have a growing need for more servants. You need others to help you. Yet you may not know where to start or how to proceed with identifying, enlisting, equipping, and engaging servant-leaders for your church. In Discovering and Developing Your Deacons, you will find the help you need. If you are wondering whether or not you even need the ministry of Deacons, or if youd like to know more about the process of discovering the right way to find them, this book is for you. You may have questions about the characteristics of men who can serve and how you can identify those qualities. This book answers clearly and concisely ten of the most often asked questions related to starting or restarting an effective Deacon ministry. It is not Gods intention that a Pastor and one or two other leaders perform all needed ministry. This is akin to what God intended for the Apostles in Acts 6, when they had become overwhelmed with the ministry needs of a multiplying church. This book details how to find the kind of men described in Acts 6not only find them but identify them by their reputation, character qualities, and servant hearts. This is a process that can be undertaken by any church that sees the need and has a desire to follow clear, scripturally-based guidelines.

Book excerpt: How Can Deacons Mobilize Service in the Church? Deacons are essential to a church's health—yet confusion abounds regarding their biblical job description. What's their God-given role in a local congregation and how do they relate to the church's overall mission? In this short book, Matt Smethurst makes the case that deacons are model servants called to meet tangible needs, organize and mobilize acts of service, preserve the unity of the flock, and support the ministry of the elders. Clearing away common misconceptions, Smethurst offers practical guidance for deploying deacons and helping churches to flourish.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dynamics of Connection: How Evolution and Biology Create Caregiving and Attachment describes the logic of giving, love, trust, and nurturance. Bowlby's theory of attachment provides an excellent starting point for an explanation of nurturance, but there are some limitations in this theory, especially its tendency to minimize the caregiving side of the relationship. The book builds on and extends Bowlby's theory by examining the evolutionary evidence for both attachment and caregiving, the origins of which can be seen in the earliest mammals. It describes neurobiological research that has identified the brain circuits that underlie caregiving and attachment. The book then describes a theory of relationships based on these neurobiological circuits and the resulting human desire to give and receive emotional contact, warmth, and support. The theory details the emotional logic of this relationship process. The proactive connection process (caregiving), characteristic of parents, involves a growing capacity for both empathy and responsibility. In the receptive process (attachment), trust grows from the experience of being cared for and nurtured. These processes coexist alongside other motivations with which they interact. The Dynamics of Connection introduces a view of the dyadic social psychology of connection that underlies both parent-child and close adult relationships. It provides a description and explanation of parental and adult nurturance. It gives a long-needed account of the origins of social norms of parenting. While building on the foundation of attachment theory, David Bell brings together new insights from both evolutionary theory and neurobiology to deepen our understanding of caregiving and attachment.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The office of deacon is vital within the local church and often varies from one congregation to another. There are many misconceptions concerning the role and responsibilities of deacons. The Bible clearly defines deacons as those who function as servant leaders. The purpose of this project is to address the biblical, theoretical, practical and personal observations that will assist new church plants in equipping potential candidates for the office of deacon, as servant leaders. The project will address vital areas of deacon ministry that will include; discovering the history of deacon ministry, the biblical qualifications for a deacon, the relationship of the deacon to the pastor, and how a deacon is to serve within the local church. The project will address the biblical analysis of leadership. The project will examine the earthly life and ministry of Jesus Christ and demonstrate why He is the perfect model of servant leadership. The writer will survey new church planters to identify their knowledge and understanding of deacons as servant leaders. The data gleaned from the surveys will be utilized to assist pastors in adopting strategic deacon training as an added resource within new church plants. In a new church plant, the value of training and equipping deacons as servant leaders will lay a foundation that will build and foster effective leadership for years to come.
