Many of us have heard the expression: “Function dictates form”? It is quite true. When Boeing came out with the first commercial jetliner they held a press conference at which time a reporter asked the questioned, “Why’d you make it so beautiful?” The spokesman for Boeing said that that wasn’t their intention, but that it was designed to fly. It just so happens that that is what it takes for a plane to fly. And it is true that the forms of many things today is not predicated by the desire of the architect put the function and use of the object.
So it is with the diaconate. It is the function of the diaconate that governs its purpose and place in the body of Christ. And that is why our study of the diaconate begins with a look at the church it is to serve.
