Think of this as a conversation on the matter of deacons in the Lord's churches.I'm a pastor. For 42 years I served six Southern Baptist churches and followed that with 5 years as the director of missions for our denomination's 130 churches and missions throughout greater New Orleans.  I love deacons. My oldest son is one of the finest deacons I know. I'm eternally indebted to the Lord for surrounding me with godly and mature deacon friends who have enriched my life and enabled my ministry.  My pastorates have been immeasurably strengthened by solid deacons who loved Jesus and wanted nothing more than to serve Him.But I did not emerge unscathed from serving alongside deacons.

Suggesting they take on the entire squad, Jonathan said: It doesn't matter to the Lord w...
