03 Devoted Deacons

In 1 Timothy 3, the Apostle Paul writes about the qualifications of two offices within churches: those of elders and deacons. While God gave us elders to oversee the church, deacons are appointed to help them in various ways. In this message, Hannes van den Heever unpacks the roles, responsibilities and qualifications of deacons. They should be among the church’s best value carriers—those whose lives reflect the Kingdom’s patterns and priorities. Devoted deacons help bring the church to a place of maturity, as they guard the unity among the saints with supernatural wisdom from the Holy Spirit.
