Stephen Ministry

What kind of man would receive the care

of a Stephen Minister?

A man like Adam who was cut off from all that gave meaning to life and needed someone to remind him of God’s promise.

A man like Noah who witnessed the destruction of everything around him and needed someone to wait with him for a new day.

A man like Abraham who had to leave everything he knew and loved behind him and needed someone to journey with him to a new life.

A man like Moses who faced great opposition and needed a companion to support him and speak on his behalf.

A man like David who grieved the death of a wayward child and needed a shepherd’s care.

A man like Elijah who thought he was all alone and needed a still, small voice to encourage him.

A man like Job who lost everything and needed someone to silently endure his pain with him.

A man like Peter who found himself “in over his head” and needed the strong hand of a faithful friend; whose pride led him to initially resist having his feet washed by the Lord when the Lord came in the form of a humble servant but willingly received this ministry when he honestly confronted his need.

A man like Paul who knew the unending distress caused by a thorn in the flesh and needed someone to rejoice with him when he rejoiced and to weep with him when he wept.

A man like Jesus who knew disappointment, sorrow, grief, rejection, and loneliness so intense that He sweat blood and needed an angel of God to minister to Him.

A man like You.
