Summary

The RCP is delighted to have Pastor Danny Thursby back on the show once again! This time to discuss the office of Deacon. Is it an office? What is its function? Why does it matter? This was a great discussion on church polity. Toward the end of the episode, Danny gave an update on his daughter Opal.
