My whole concept for the book is not to entertain readers, but to genuinely help people. I hope that they will be able to relate their problems to the experiences I have shared. I want this book to teach them how to do self-deliverance so that they can overcome the issues they're facing by the power of God. My prayer for every person who picks up this book is that they will be anointed by the Holy Spirit to seek deliverance so that they may fulfill God's calling on their lives. Father, as I lift up the person who is reading this book and place them boldly on Your lap at the Throne of Grace, I am asking you to supernaturally change the desires of their heart to line up with Your plan for them, which You placed in their spirit from the beginning of time to establish Your Kingdom on Earth as it is in Heaven. Father, I ask You to flood them with supernatural knowledge of Your Word, how it works, and the wisdom to accomplish Your will. Help them to step from the natural realm into the spirit realm in order to fulfill Your Word in John 14:12, to not only do the works of Jesus, but the works that are beyond the comprehension of the human mind, which are the signs and wonders that will bring in multitudes of people into Your Kingdom. I now release the supernatural anointing of Holy Spirit to flow into this reader to step outside the box of the past and into the supernatural walk with Jesus, to do His works in the POWER of Holy Spirit for the glory of our Heavenly Father. In Jesus' name, Amen.

"Pastor &amp; Deacons is a must-read for all those in church leadership. . . .This book is biblical, practical and helpful. It is chock-full of “how to” ideas that will strengthen relationships and promote spiritual unity in the local church. The principles on church discipline and the chapter on “Dealing with Difficulties” are worth the price of the book. Pastor, get this book and you will refer to it often." Dr. Tom Farrell Evangelist 
How should a church be organized? 
What functions do the pastors, deacons, and congregation serve?

As fellow servants in the same church, Carl Herbster and Kenneth Howerton have collaborated in the writing of Pastor &amp; Deacons: Servants Working Together to answer these important questions and many more. The "on-the-job," real-life experiences of the authors make this a particularly practical book. 
Pastor &amp; Deacons is a practical exposition and application of biblical principles of church organization and leadership.
