Deacon: Phoenix of the Clergy
The History that Defines a Ministry
Andercheck brings brilliant theological clarity to true diaconal ministry, engaging the reader with an intense and readable look into its history. As the phoenix suggests, what he advocates is not new: it is the rebirth of a vital form of ministry present in the Church’s earliest days, and a solution to the current pastoral leadership crisis.
“Ed’s insightful, wise, and challenging book shows us why and how the church must utilize the ministry of Deacon in more fruitful, creative ways.”
Will Willimon · Duke Divinity School
“This appeal to restore diaconal ministry to its rightful place is timely, convincing, and important.”
Craig Hill · Perkins School of Theology, SMU
