This is the Student Workbook version of The Three Tables. A Leader's Guide containing the answers is also available. Further resources, including teaching videos, may be found at www.thethreetables.com The Three Tables: Reclaiming an Early Baptist Model for Deacon Ministry Today is a deacon training course that introduces the early Baptist idea that deacons primarily serve three tables: The Table of the Lord (the Lord's Supper), The Table of the Poor (benevolence), and the Table of the Pastor (assisting the pastor in various ways, including helping him to care for the families of the church). Through a careful consideration of biblical passages, quotations and stories from Baptist history, and references to the earlier history of the church, The Three Tables will help you to consider a model that served Baptist and baptistic churches well for many years.
