This book is based upon life experiences, through ups and downs of any and every situation, through every relationship, through all different life occasions and what they have to offer. Whether it be a holiday or just a normal average day or night. These times of experiences are very detailed and described through song and poetry as one in which I like to call and proclaim as soetry. Song and poetry are nearly the same thing. The only difference is adding music to the words of either to create a poetic song that tells us all a story of an event in life's circumstances through what has taken place. Music, song, and poetry has always been part of my life and I believe has been passed down from generation to generation throughout my family unto myself for me to be able to create and present something as to the world today through the book that you're reading. Everything that we go through and experience in life is meant to be. Some events are great, others not so much. We always learn life's lessons through the failures that we come across. Although sometimes not so pleasant, we all must experience these not-so-pleasant events in life to learn from them to get to where we are, in what I like to call the Growing and Going Process, into the direction of learning from them. And if somehow we don't, the lesson of life will repeat itself until we do learn so we can make it further in life to have great accomplishments. We all have a future, a purpose, and a plan, whether we see it or choose to accept it or not.

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.

A theological explanation and practical handbook for those preparing for a diaconate in today’s church. All too often the time spent as a deacon is seen simply as the prelude to priestly ordination. Yet the Bible defines three orders of ministry - deacon, priest, and bishop - each with its own distinctive characteristics and responsibilities. In Being A Deacon Today, Brown explores the three places where deacons minister (the church, the world, and at the margins), the three strands of their ministry (in liturgy, in pastoral care, and as catechists), and the three actions of their ministry (praying, loving, and remembering). This book, excellent for classroom use and for transitional and permanent deacons, will restore a fuller understanding of the diaconal ministry and nurture deacons in their work and spiritual life.
