The Fundamental Work of the Deacons: Visiting and Comforting the Distressed

The Fundamental Work of the Deacons: Visiting and Comforting the Distressed

  • Popular
  • Douglas J. Kuiper

What is the work of deacons? They are called to care for the poor and needy. This article discusses how part of expressing this care is through visiting the distressed, reading the Scriptures with them, and praying with them. These visits manifest the love of Christ for his people in distress.
