Leading by Serving | Conversations with Living Hope's Deacons Part 2
About this episode
The episode features a discussion with Living Hope Church's deacons about their roles, responsibilities, and the importance of serving the church and community.
What does a church deacon actually do? In this episode, we sit down with the deacons of Living Hope Church, Randy Clifford, Patrick Skidmore, Tim Stello and past deacon Brian Krug, for an honest conversation about life, ministry, and the gospel. We talk about balancing family and church responsibilities, what a typical Sunday morning looks like behind the scenes, and the often unseen ways they serve our church body. More importantly, we discuss how each of them thinks about the gospel—not just inside the church, but in everyday relationships with people who don't yet know Christ. Their desire isn't simply to fill a role, but to faithfully reflect Jesus through humble service, genuine love, and everyday faithfulness. Whether you're considering church leadership, curious about the role of deacons, or simply encouraged by stories of ordinary Christians seeking to live out their faith, we hope this conversation strengthens and challenges you.
