Question
How can we see wisdom(from the Wisdom books) in the ministries as a model in the church; as deacons, lay ministers and other workers in the church?

Dear Rich Valles
  First, if you are the one that email me about some scriptures related to a social justice study, I want to say sorry I didnt get back to you. My computer had minor crash, and lost most of my saved emails.
  Well, I think we all can show wisdom by obedience to the Church as it lives in obedience to Christ, who is Wisdom par excellence. Christ's obedience to the Father's will is the Church's model.
  A Deacon is think a called to be a witness and an agent in special manner to the corpal works of mercy with and for the Church. They show wisdom when the used their temporal skills and talents in the ministries. A friend of mine is a deacon and a personal lawyer. He uses his lawyer skills to help his diocese and parish establish trust accounts and dispose of good/monies granted them via wills and other similar sources. Another is deacon I know is an accountant, and he does the books for a diocesan youth center.
  Those in a lay apostolate can model wisdom basicly in the same manner.

Expertise

I am willing to attempt to answer any question. If I don’t know the answer, I will look-up or pass the question on to friends for feed back. Beside Catholicism (especially the social/moral and the Eastern rites), I am well read on Mormonism and so-called Modern Christian Fundamentalism. Also I study Franciscan History as means of growing in my lay Franciscan calling to holiness in Christ.
