A Brotherhood of Servants There is no higher calling on a Christianʼs life than that of serving the Lord (Colossians 3:24), serving His people (Hebrews 6:10), and laboring with the Lord and His people in service to others (1Corinthians 3:9). Therefore, every Christian needs to develop the heart of a servant. Faithful deacons are invaluable to a church, not only because of the ministry they perform, but also because of the model for servanthood that they provide. The material presented in the following pages will help churches have better deacons and appreciate them more. Thatʼs important, but equally important is the fact that church members who read this book will also have a better understanding of what constitutes genuine Christian servanthood. In a very real sense, servanthood is what this book is all about, and this alone, recommends it for general readership by any church.

This situation simply must change if individual Christians and local churches are to have the windows of heaven opened for them and the fullness of God’s blessing on them in these last urgent days in which we are living, prior to our Lord’s return. C R Curtman has been a pastor for thirty-six years. In addition to these duties, he maintains a busy schedule preaching in Bible conferences, revival services and camp meetings. He is a graduate of Missouri Baptist and Saint Louis Universities, and has taught for many years on the university level. He and his wife, Judy, have five children and ten grandchildren.
