    REQUIREMENTS FOR DEACONS 1 Timothy 3:8-13 THERE ARE AS MANY VERSES LISTING THE REQUIREMENTS OF DEACONS AS THERE ARE FOR PASTOR.

    It’s never easy to live under constant stress and adversity. When our lives are finished, may it be said of us that “they ceased not.” Faithfulness to God is not a novel thing; it’s to be our normal practice.
