Description:	Are "deacon" and "theologian" incompatible terms? In Empowered by the Spirit, Professor and Deacon Hilmar Pabel challenges the theological and practical marginalisation of deacons in the Church. He proposes a robust theology of the diaconate to challenge the conceptual and actual marginalisation of deacons in the church. The book emphasises the Holy Spirit in the sacramentality of the diaconate, in the ministerial communion of deacons with their bishop and priests, and in the role of deacons as servant-leaders in a synodal church. He calls for a renewed understanding of diaconal ministry and reforms that more fully integrate deacons into the communion of ministers, enabling them to better serve and strengthen the communities they lead.
