Product Description

Based on contextual, theological reflection shared with lay people, this text blends theological and historical research with the personal journey of a deacon. It explores the history of deacons and deaconesses from biblical times to the present day and looks at what it means to be a deacon. It should prove a useful resource for all interested in ministry, particularly those concerned with the ministry of the deacon whether as candidates or providers of training.

Customer Reviews

a great work5
this is an excellent and unusual contribution to the, as yet, limited writing on the methodist deaconate order and its historical antecedents.

Aitchison, writing his first book, tackles a difficult subject with flair and creativity, holding the readers interest at all times.

Hopefully many more books will follow from this great new writer.
