We started this episode with some technical difficulties but of course I improvised. On this episode we discuss mime ministry, drug dealing and so much more! Enjoy!
Sermon - The First Deaconate Acts 6v1-7 In those days when the number of disciples was increasing, the Hellenistic Jews among them complained against the Hebraic Jews because their widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food. So the Twelve gathered all the disciples together and said, "It would not be right for us to neglect the ministry of the word of God in order to wait on tables. Brothers and sisters, choose seven men from among you who are known to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will turn this responsibility over to them and will give our attention to prayer and the ministry of the word." This proposal pleased the whole group. They chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit; also Philip, Procorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas from Antioch, a convert to Judaism. They presented these men to the apostles, who prayed and laid their hands on them. So the word of God spread. The number of disciples in Jerusalem increased rapidly, and a large number of priests became obedient to the faith. Introduction So far in the book of Acts, we can see that the Church has come under attack by the The world (persecution), satan (deceit & moral compromise) Now a new crisis appears. Unable to destroy the church by way of persecution and deceit, satan now tries to create a split in the church by getting believers to argue and fight with each other. If satan had succeeded in creating an implosion within this church, the only church in existence at the time, then the effects could have been devastating. The media in our world loves to report about anything negative to do with Christianity and the church. So any form of dissension, pressure splits and arguments within the Church, is often reported with an almost earnest gleefulness by the media. From this Bible passage, four questions quite naturally arise. What was the problem? How was it resolved? What happened after it was resolved? How can we apply it to church life, 2000 years after the event? The Problem! (v1) Good news - they were growing, but this had caused a problem! Bad news - Some widows were not being cared for! Hebraic Jews = always had lived in the then nation of Israel, spoke mainly Aramaic and some Hebraic. Well used to life in a Jewish society, the Temple and avoiding those who were not Jews - the Gentiles.. Grecian or Hellenestic Jews = were part of the Jewish Diaspora, born elsewhere within the known world and had returned to Jerusalem. These mainly spoke Greek, and well used to working with Gentiles. Widows were important to God, because justice is important to God. God is a God of justice and mercy. In the Old Testament, under the Law of Moses, God commanded provision for those who were widows, oppressed or uncared for. There was no NHS at the time in Jerusalem. The Apostles would have known about God caring for the widows and in Jesus teaching about justice for the poor and the oppressed. We know this because if you remember from Acts 2 and 4, people were selling and sharing possessions and ensuring that people within the Christian community were being looked after and cared for. This included making sure that everyone got fed, particularly those who had no family to care for them. Somehow, unintentional or not, this group of widows were missing out. What to do? The Solution! (v2-6) Three things about the solution Transformation of the Apostles - James, Peter & John particularly (v2) Its not stated here, but a transformation had taken place! Only a few short time ago, the disciples of Jesus had refused to wash feet as an act of service (Peter); some had wanted positions of power and greatness (James & John). Their old nature must have started asking questions and prompting them to react negatively. The world has attacked the church, satan has attacked the church, and now satan would have been using the Apostles old nature to attack the church. But - as they are transformed by the indwelling Holy Spirit and now have a new nature, the nature of Jesus Christ, they react much more righteously and judiciously. All together now! (v2-5) Notice they gathered all the believers together for a church meeting. The gave their opinion or judgment if you like, that their ministry or time would be better spent doing what God had called them to do - to be leaders of the Church, praying, preaching, evangelizing and discerning how best to apply the 3 years of teaching that they had had when traveling with Jesus Christ before His ascension. Their time, rightly so, was best spent doing that, for that was their ministry of service. But other people in the church gathering, who had a ministry of service and overseeing the food distribution, could spend their time doing that! So what of these seven men with Greek names? They were elected by the whole church, both Grecian and Hebraic, to perform this duty. They may already have been doing it, but now were being set apart especially for this role. These men were controlled by the Holy Spirit and were wise. They were chosen to give relief to the leadership so that the Word of God and prayer would not be hindered. Commissioning (v6) Interestingly enough, the word diakonia is translated here in the NIV as ministry. Another way to translate it is as deacons, as our sermon title suggests. But, they were not deacons in the way the Paul uses the word as part of a church government in 1 Timothy 3. Rather they were deacons, set apart for this specific task - it was their ministry. It may well have been from here, that Paul developed what some parts of the universal church understands of the role of deacons. So these seven men, were prototypes as it were, for the Paul-ine idea of deacons. Note also that the Apostles didn't say their work was more important than serving. They were just following what God had called them to do, just as God had called these seven men to take responsibility for providing food for the widows. So they were commissioned by God, by the laying on of hands and set apart to perform it. We know only of Steven and Phillip and that they continued doing other ministries as well as this. The Result! (v7) Growth and witness = conversion of former enemies... (v7) Growth and witness = reasoning and transformation Now that the Apostles had time for their dedicated and unique ministry, all the widows could be fed, and all believers able to participating within the life of the church. Not only that, Stephen was instrumental in reaching the Apostle Paul (Acts 7:58). Philip was instrumental in reaching the city of Samaria and won over for Jesus Christ, the Ethiopian Eunuch who then took the gospel to Africa. (Acts 8) This growth was where the word of God increased in its effectiveness in the lives of those unbelievers who would listen to the gospel. This growth was not merely addition but multiplication! It was explosive! So explosive that even former enemies were becoming converts! Sadducees were Jewish believers who didn't believe in a bodily resurrection - yet they came to faith and started to believe in the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ. It's not hard to imagine that some of those Priests coming to faith in Jesus Christ were former persecutors of the Church! They were watching the church to see how best to attack and debate them. Yet found that they were joining the church, rather than continuing to oppose it. The church was preaching one thing and acting upon it. There was no hypocrisy within the church. The church was transparent - it lived as it believed. The church was seen as transformative and servant-like. While the Church continue to reason with others about the validity of Jesus Christ's claims to be the Messiah, it would have not been effective if lives were not being transformed. If lives were not being changed, then no amount of reasoning alone would have seen the growth in numbers being added to the Church. Just as transformation and change alone would not have been the catalyst for growth, without the reasoning behind it. Conclusion Transformation As we have seen here, the first Church was a radical community of believers, growing quickly. The church today, also needs to be a community that is seen to be radical by the surrounding society. At Pentecost, the church community began when the Holy Spirit filled the Disciples (Acts 2v4). The hallmarks of this community were commitment and transformation. This community was radical. It was where people's lives were being changed as the Holy Spirit filled them. Instead of being a withdrawn people filled with fear of retribution from the Roman government and Jewish leaders, they became a people filled with boldness and joy. This church in Jerusalem grew by being a radical community imbued with radical individuals engaging with others and serving. It was a church where every member was asked and expected to play some role. Imagine this church here, if nobody straightened the chairs, vacuumed the carpets, made the tea and coffee etc. All vital parts of church life, and everyone can participate in the life of the church. I was glad to see in the handout Steve gave me that all members were encouraged to participate in some way within the life of the Church here in Bearwood. Today's church will grow by building a strong community. And by church, I don't mean just Bearwood Chapel, but all churches in this area, this country and this world. In working with other local churches, a church community can be created which involves joining together isolated and solitary individuals where people are imbued with love, shown caring for each other, particularly the frail, elderly and young. Despite small differences in worship style and non-essential doctrines, local churches working together can show a world looking in, that all local churches are unified in some positive aspect. In doing this, churches can be a visible symbol of the invisible link that unites all churches. And we can do it, with what somebody once called a "creative passion for the impossible." An inherent human need is the need to belong, and by fulfilling relational needs, the radical church community will become relevant to the people within it. It will then also become relevant to those who are on the outside and looking in. And people are looking in, all the time, whether you want them to or not. When systematic persecution comes to this country, and it will, local churches will need to work with each other and show that Jesus Christ is the reason for our hope and faith. This is shown partly be caring for those who are in need within the community as a whole, and not just in the Church. This involves improving present societal conditions, rather than remaining a conservative community, which merely repairs the status quo. In doing this, today's church will be emulating characteristics of this church we have read and heard about this morning. Jesus Christ is glorified, honoured as the Church community's spiritual health gets stronger and the community bonds in unity. I know of churches that are good at one thing but not the other. Some churches are excellent at social care and social justice, but are very weak in regards to teaching from the Bible and prayer. I know others who are the opposite - are faithful in prayer and bible teaching, but neglectful in regards to social justice. The church must be both as it endeavours to spread the good news of Jesus Christ. The church must be a community of people, willing to be holy. By holy, I mean living a life of constant transformation into the image of Jesus Christ. Being transformed by the Holy Spirit as God's Word is read, studied and applied to your life. It is by being holy, that the church will grow, as we have seen with this church in Jerusalem. The role of the community engaged in radical transformation is to help people to be holy and not merely happy. Happiness will flow from holiness, but holiness will not necessarily flow from an induced ‘feel good factor'. Good leadership, as we have seen this morning, stems from good accountability to each other and to the whole church community. Ministry for all - serving! The Christian life is not to be static or inactive. The Christian life is to be dynamic and active. As we have seen the word "deacon" here denotes ministry. Ministry is any service for Jesus Christ When you serve as God's deacon in this way, God's honour is released. That's why the embryonic Church in Jerusalem grew and flourished. This is done because service shows the beauty and glory of Jesus Christ to those being served and to those watching. That is to be our motive for service. I don't know you. I don't know how or why or if you serve in the Church here in Bearwood. But I do know that ministry and serving in some capacity is for all Christians. In some parts of the worldwide church, ministry is only ever used of the clergy, missionaries and other "professional Christians". And, with a few exceptions notably the Brethren movement, this was the case in most Christian denominations until 40 or 50 years ago. But since then, service and ministry has returned to its New Testament roots. Service and ministry is the domain of all those who would profess to call Jesus Christ as LORD. Serving and ministry should never to be about what you and I can get out of it. When that is the motive, God is not glorified. God's glory and supremacy is our goal as Christians. Spiritual growth comes from serving rather than being served. This is because what ever is given in service of God and others, faith grows and Jesus Christ gives back even more. Jesus speaking in Matthew 25v15-30 tells of the rewards for faithful service and the penalties for being faithless. Serving others is a sign that you are trusting God and having faith in God. Serving God and others is the mark of a spiritually maturity and through service, the greatest servant of all, is reflected: Jesus Christ, who came to serve and give his very life for others (Mark 10v45). As Christians, we are to be as Jesus Christ (Romans 8v28; Philippians 2v5) and to serve. Yet if we are honest, we sometimes feel incapable, just as Moses did (Exodus 3). An excellent example to follow is that of the deacon Stephen. As the church, we are dependent upon each other, just as one part of the human body has dependence on another part. That is why we serve each other and use the gifts generously given by God. If we are Christians here today, you have spiritual gifts and talents, and you have a responsibility to discover and develop them (1 Timothy 4v14)! As we have hopefully seen today, God has called all Christians into one ministry or another and equipped them to fulfill that ministry. So find where in this church, you can serve. Ask the elders and other Church leaders, how they think you can serve here. Finally, if you would not call yourself a Christian here today, then I would urge you to look at this Church. You maybe here having investigated Christianity rationally but still need a bit more for one reason or another. In that case, I would urge you to see how this church cares for the poor and the widows of this area and the world, and match that against its dedication to Jesus Christ. Or you may be here, because you have seen the transforming work of this church with the poor and the widows, but feel you need a bit of something else. Then I would urge you to match this transforming work in individuals against what the Bible says and rationality. Maybe you are in one of those camps, you want to cross the line to faith, but just can't quite get there. Ask one of the Church leaders here, how they might be able to help you. Let's pray.

Gospel reading Mt 25:1-13. Homily given at the 11:00 a.m. Mass on Sunday, November 12, 2023, the 32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time, by Deacon Dan Foley, Christ the King Catholic Church. Being a believer is not enough. Wisdom and vigilance are required. Jesus is the wisdom of God personified, and reveals that love of God and love of neighbor are inseparable. The vocation of the Deacon is a living icon of that reality, connecting the Eucharist to the works of love.

This episode discusses the sacrament of Holy Orders (to the Deaconate, Priesthood, and Bishopric), and how this sacrament effects all of our spiritual lives. NOTE: I said that the sacrament of Baptism is the only sacrament which does not need a clergy member present, ordinarily. This is not entirely true. The sacrament of Matrimony can be witnessed by a lay person instead of a clergy member. In extreme circumstances, the sacrament of Matrimony could not even require a witness (if the man and woman were on a deserted island, for example).

A sermon by The Rt. Rev. Bishop José A. McLoughlin for the Diocesan Ordinations to the Transitional Deaconate on Saturday, December 18, 2021.
On this weeks podcast, we dig into the archive to a broadcast from June 2012 with Br Martin Browne OSB. We dug it out from the archive following Bishop Brendan Leahy's announcement that the 2016 Synod proposal to institute the permanent diaconate in Limerick diocese will be implemented. ************Br Martin Brown OSB joined us on the programme to discuss the restoration of the permanent diaconate to the Irish diocesan church fifty years after Pope Paul VI restored it to the universal church at the Second Vatican Council.The diaconate is seen as the public manifestation of the servant nature of the church. Deacons are ordained ministers of the church who also serve in a liturgical function."The restoration of the ministry of permanent deacons is somehow looked on in terms of what the deacon can or cannot do compared with the priest and ministry of the deacon is looked on as some sort of second-class ministry. People who speak or write in this framework fail to understand the deaconate and fail to understand ministry. The order of deacons is not just about doing things; it is a call to be configured in a special way to Jesus who serves and to represent in a special way in the life of the Church Jesus who serves." - Archbishop Diarmuid MartinThe Acts of the Apostles describes how, in the first century, the Church was faced with the challenge of responding to the needs of those who were at risk of being marginalised, either through culture or through material poverty. Keeping in mind the example of Jesus, the Apostles selected and ordained a number of men specifically for this service. For a number of centuries, deacons ministered in close co-operation with the bishops of the Church, assisting at the Eucharist, preaching the Gospel, and exercising a ministry of charity. Gradually, in the Western Church, the functions of deacons were absorbed into the ministry of the priest, and the diaconate became a transitional order, for those on the way to priesthood. The Second Vatican Council envisaged a renewal of ministry, both lay and ordained, in the Church. The Council's Constitution on the Church, Lumen Gentium, explains that the lay faithful, by virtue of their Baptism, are commissioned to an active apostolate and insists that “every opportunity be given them so that, according to their abilities and the needs of the times, they may zealously participate in the saving work of the Church. The Second Vatican Council also proposed the restoration of the diaconate as a “distinct ministry of service” to be exercised “in communion with the bishop and his group of priests”.Many of the functions which deacons perform can also be carried out by members of the lay faithful. The restoration of the diaconate is not intended in any sense to change that situation. The idea is that some of those who already exercise these functions would be “strengthened with the grace of diaconal ordination” and in that way would be designated to be a visible public sign of the Christ the Servant in the community of the Church. Deacons are ordained to service, to charity and to proclaim the Word.Other links and information on the permanent diaconate:Permanent Diaconate page at the Irish Episcopal ConferenceCatholic Deacon The Permanent Diaconate - National Directory and Norms for Ireland

Why membership? In Baptism we are made members of the household of God, joining his eternal and global Body, the Church. Membership gives us the opportunity to live out that baptismal reality in the local church, describing those practical ways that we can use our unique gifts and passions that make Rez tick. Is membership just a set of rules? Not at all. In the same way we wouldn't think of our baptismal covenant, or marriage vows, promises we make to friends as a "set of rules," but a description of the community we believe God is calling us to become. What do I get out of membership? Not your best question so far, but I think I know what you mean. You get each other. The gift of membership is a gift to a community, and to a neighborhood because it brings shape to a place of belonging. We want to create a safe space for people to encounter Life Together in the Goodness of God, and membership helps us bring intentionality and commitment to that vision. You also get to participate in annual meetings, our diocese, the province, and the global Anglican communion. Lastly, it's helpful for our clergy, staff, and ministry leaders to provide care and support for those we know are committed members of the community. Ok, that wasn't a bad question after all. What is required to become a member? The two week class at the start of our adult formation trimester, and signing off on our membership commitment. Do I have to become a member to be welcome at Rez? No way, everyone is welcome at Rez. This is a way for those who call Rez "home" to mature in their Christian discipleship in community. How often will we commission members? Once a year at All Saints (early November). The Membership Class will only be offered each fall. When do I need to decide? There is no pressure for those who attend our membership classes in the adult formation trimester. We recommend attending the class to find out more about what it means to be a member and then take your time during the following four weeks to pray and decide if God is calling you to join. Why a class? Oh, relax you're going to love it! Fr. Shawn will be kicking off an adult formation class after the service on Sundays that runs for 6 weeks. This first class begins with what it means to belong at Rez and continues with the beginning of the catechism. Whether or not you want to become a member or be confirmed in the Anglican church, this is about growing in Christ together. Come join us! Is childcare and lunch provided at the class? Yes! And only for $25 for an entire year of courses. Did you catch that? $25 for three trimesters of adult formation classes (18 weeks). But if you're only interested in the first two weeks for membership, that's fine too. But I bet you'll want to stick around for the rest. What if I have more questions? Contact Fr. Shawn at shawn@rezaustin.com or find me after church on Sunday, but more importantly, just attend our membership class. Fr. Shawn McCain is the founding rector of Resurection South Austin.

The ascension of Jesus is a key to understanding God’s aims throughout history and into the future. It’s key to understanding how God does things, and what he’s up to in our lives today. Getting the Ascension right, in short, brings God’s Kingdom into focus. It puts before us a clear picture of God’s true aims, to reunite humanity, and all of creation with its creator through the work of Jesus. Fr.

Daniel received a vision of the future from God, that began describing the powers of darkness. Then it all changed when "one like the Son of Man" came with the clouds of heaven to set things right in the world by his kingdom. And then his kingdom was put in the hands of the most unlikely people. Fr. Shawn McCain is the founding rector of Resurection South Austin.

We're kicking off a new series in the Pastoral letters of St. Paul to Timothy, called “Peace & Quiet,” where we are going to consider how the Gospel subverts the American Dream. Timothy was pastoring a first-century church, in the shadow of the Roman Empire and its culture, which had its way of doing things, its version of “peace & quiet” which came in sharp contrast to what Paul was writing to Timothy.

Dan and Cathy Bojorquez have been members of OLA since 1996 when they moved to Ventura. Their family includes two sons, Frank - 20, Michael - 17, and a recent addition, their nephew, Ethan, 16. Dan and Cathy’s involvement at OLA has grown as their family has grown. They started as volunteers for the many OLA school activities their sons were involved in, including Cathy serving as Treasurer for the parent group. Eventually, they became Eucharistric Ministers which they still enjoy. Dan is active in the Knights of Columbus and the Men’s Ministry program, “That Man is You”. Cathy is active in the Confirmation program. This year they started helping with RCIA. Dan is currently in his 2nd year of the Deaconate formation program. The OLA family has been a tremendous blessing to Dan and Cathy and an encouragement in their own faith journeys.
Experiencing the Holy Spirit's call of love as a young child, Deacon Dan Schneider, a convert to Catholicism, discusses his spiritual journey into the Deaconate. Hosted by Michelle Den Hartigh.
