Description:
It looked like a bread problem.
But the Apostles saw something different —
something far more dangerous…
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast,
Pastor Monty Simao takes a break from our study in the book of Matthew
as we ordain to the office of deacon,
Arnold Teves and Derek Orn.
Born out of a practical crisis,
the diaconate addressed something far greater —
a threat to the unity of Christ’s church
and to the ministry of the Word.
And in that, we see something beautiful
about Christ’s care for His Bride:
physical needs matter,
unity must be guarded,
and those called to preach and pray
must be freed to do so faithfully.
Because deacons are more than men
who simply get things done.
They’re men who bear burdens,
protect peace,
and by serving the body,
help keep the Word
at the center of the church.
