About the Book

"Thank you Brother LaVinka! This is a much- needed book in Bible believing churches today. I have been involved in the ministry for 50 years and have seen far too many churches that have deacons who do not have a clue concerning what their ministry is to be. One church where I was the Director of Christian Education brought men on as deacons because they were successful in business. However, they were far from biblically qualified. In another church, they functioned as a board of directors, trying to give their Pastor instructions as to how I was to do things. One of the men told the Pastor, "I control the money in this church and if you think differently I will do a Mexican Hat Dance on your head!" If only I would have had Brother Leo's book "Deacons and Their Wives" back then it would have made the task much easier. He does a Yeoman's job of defining and explaining the work and ministry of Deacons. The book is saturated with Scripture! I plan on purchasing copies for all my Deacons and plan to make it a part of our devotionals at the beginning of each Deacons meeting. I urge every Pastor, every Deacon, every Deacon's wife and every man who aspires to be a Deacon to get this book and read it." Pastor David L. Brown David L. Brown. Ph.D., has been the Pastor of Oak Creek First Baptist IFB Church, WI, for 42 years. He is President of the King James Bible Research Council and Logos Communication Consortium, Curator of the Christian Heritage Bible Collection, an author of numerous books and articles, an international speaker, and a widely used consultant.
