We explore how God established the ministry of deacons to meet practical needs, support spiritual leadership, and protect the unity of the church. In a moment of tension and growth, the early church responded by calling faithful servants to step forward. The result was a strengthened fellowship and a Gospel that continued to spread with power. As our church ordains and commissions deacons, this sermon reminds us that healthy churches are built on humble service, shared ministry, and a commitment to unity for the glory of God.
