The following question was submitted to the Pastor's Inbox:  Greetings Pastors, I had a question regarding female deacons? Is affirming female deacons in the church both in keeping with scripture and reformed Baptist tradition? Obviously, this would be in light of passages in 1 Tim 3 (Wives or Women debate in verse 11) and Rom 16 (was Phoebe a Deacon in her church) and obviously Acts 6. How do these square with deacons having possibly some authority, though a derivative and subordinate authority, from the Eldership? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have introduced you to several of John Fawcett’s writings – especially his sermons and devotional works. But he was also a fine hymn writer. Several of his better productions are still sung today. He believed in singing psalms and hymns in public worship, not merely for private edification. The Baptist churches in his day, that is in the latter 1700’s, would have predominantly sung the psalms and hymns of Isaac Watts. His song books were very popular. But as Baptists and others began to also pen hymns for worship, new collections were desired. And of course, a section of hymns for the ordinance of believer’s baptism was needed for their churches.

I want to introduce you to more works from the pen of John Fawcett, the Baptist pastor from the north of England in the later 1700s. In almost 100 episodes of Particular Pilgrims, we have found only a few authors producing what could be called “many” publications. Benjamin Keach was one but the list is short. In the 1600s it could be difficult for non-conformists to publish. This began to ease in the 1700s and by the latter half of the century, some like Fawcett took advantage of the situation and produced dozens of volumes.
