Courageous humility is a humility that takes risks, investing the talents and strengths God has given us for the good of others. The reflections revolve around that call: “Be strong and courageous!” Chapter One grounds the project in the Trinity, the core dogma of the Church. From the earliest days of the Church, humility has been seen as the heart of Christian communal life, so Chapter Two examines the classic insights on humility from St. Benedict and his groundbreaking Rule. Humility should be the foundation of all the various external structures we create to support our mission of evangelization. Chapter Three offers some suggestions on ecclesial structural reform. Building on these foundational chapters, the succeeding chapters focus on the diaconate within this context of ecclesial humility. Chapter Four discusses the sacramentality of the diaconate. Chapter Five suggests revisions to the Code of Canon Law vis-à-vis the diaconate, and Chapter Six recommends developments in the liturgy of diaconal ordination. Chapter Seven responds to some of the recurring issues of the diaconate, and Chapter Eight discusses how the Church may tap the full potential of the renewed diaconate.

The spiritual gifts given to deacons at ordination is a supernatural grace for the Sacred Liturgy, Holy Scripture, and Service to the Body of Christ. We are asked to foster these gifts as foundations for our ministry. One of our obligations as deacons is to pray the Liturgy of the Hours daily. A particular reading on August 10, 2021 helped me refocus on the ministry of a deacon from the 1st century. August 10th was the feast day of Saint Lawrence a Deacon and martyr for the Church of Rome. He was a fourth century Christian who was executed during the persecution of Emperor Valerian four days after the execution of Pope Sixtus II and his companions for their Catholic faith. He is an example of how Catholics, regardless of their position within the church or society, should be prepared to die for their beliefs. The Office of Readings on pg. 1304 for Saint Lawrence's Feast Day focuses on the Book of Acts 6:1-6; 8:1,4-8. Something within those scriptures caught my attention regarding the Ministry of the Deacon that I had not thought of before. I will reflect on Phillip, the New Testament Deacon.

Explores the pastoral implications of a new scholarly understanding of the role of deacons in the Early Church. In many churches today -- Catholic, Anglican, and others -- deacons have come to serve largely as servants of the poor and needy. In Deacons and the Church, Collins argues that this limited role for deacons was based on misinterpretations of key scriptural passages. Following the history of deacons in the Early Church to modern times, Collins offers extensive reflections on the relevant Scriptures, and suggests that we redefine the role of deacons for today. Rather than limit the role of deacons, he urges the church to adapt ancient meanings to modern pastoral situations. In the words of Ignatius of Antioch, whom he quotes in the final chapter, "Deacons are not providers of bread and drink but are agents of the congregation." Collins paints a rich picture of deacons as agents of the church, ordained to the service of the bishop, who sends them forth as ministers of the church as a whole, rather than simply social workers. Collins provides an understanding of deacons that embraces social welfare but is not bound by it.
