How Mercy Ministry in the Local Church Transforms Us All
Not Just a Soup Kitchen is an excellent "how to"
book on local church mercy ministries. Written by David Apple, the director of the
ACTS Ministry of Tenth Presbyterian in Philadelphia, and published by CLC
Publications. The book gives excellent guidelines for the role of the
deacon in a local church in mercy ministries. One chapter gives the excellent
history of the biblical role of the deacon which was fully developed by the
reformer John Calvin (what a tremendous encouraging historical example!). The
guidelines for mercy ministries are exceptional and will be useful in all
evangelical churches (dougnichols.blogspot.com). Wonderful illustrations of working with the needy. Great
book. Available at clcpublications.com, cbd.com, wtsbooks.com, and for Nook/Kindle, amazon.com and bn.com.
