What does it mean to be a servant to servants? In Southern Baptist life, it would obviously include the work of the local association of churches and the director of missions (DOM) who directs that work. An older label for this position was “associational missionary” and may still be a more accurate description of the activities of the DOM and his calling. Most DOMs do minimal “directing” but usually perform as a missionary for the local churches as well as ministry partner for those pastors.
