New episode of The Reformed Deacon: How the Westminster Standards Relate to Deacons
Pray for Ukraine
Have you ever tried to find the word, "deacon" (or elder for that matter) in the Westminster Standards? If you have, you probably couldn't find it, because it isn't referred to explicitly by name. Does that mean the Standards aren't important for deacons to study?
Listen as Westminster Assembly scholar Dr. Chad Van Dixhoorn describes the profound impact the Westminster Standards has on the role of Reformed deacons. His expertise provides a glimpse into the spiritual requirements of a deacon and gives insight to the Westminster Standards as they relate to deacons.
February 24 marked the second anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Ukrainian pastors, elders, church members, and MTW missionaries continue to serve and worship in the country. Their plea is that the global Church would remember them, and the people of Ukraine. As an encouragement to remind us to pray, more than a dozen men and women shared their prayer requests, which range from praying that the war would end, to the safe return of children being held illegally in Russia, and the emotional and spiritual state of all Ukrainians, that God would draw them to Himself. Please watch, and pray.
