The other Philip is usually distinguished from the disciple of the same name by calling him “Philip the evangelist” or “Philip the deacon.” It is often assumed that this Philip was one of the seventy-two men whom Jesus sent out in Luke 10:1, although the Bible doesn’t make that connection.
When Stephen was appointed to serve as deacon, Luke described him as a man “of good repute, full of the Spirit of Wisdom” (Acts 6:3) and “full of faith and of the Holy Spirit” (Acts 6:5).

The Gospel According to Luke The Good News Christian tradition has always identified Luke as the companion of Paul and his “beloved physician” (Col 4:14; Philem 24).

As he himself says at the beginning of his work, he was very diligent in collecting testimonies and ...

The responsibilities of a deacon are not clearly listed or outlined; they are assumed to be everything that does not include the duties of an elder or pastor, which is to preach, teach, and exhort.
What are the qualifications of elders and deacons? What does the Bible say about who is qualified to serve as an elder or deacon?
There are at least three possible interpretations of the phrase husband of one wife in 1 Timothy 3:2 (ESV). 1) It could simply be saying that a polygamist is not qualified to be an elder, a deacon or a pastor. This is the most literal interpretation of the English rendering of the phrase, but seems somewhat unlikely considering that polygamy was quite rare in the time that Paul was writing. 2 ...
The word deacon simply means “servant.” Deacons are appointed church officials who minister to the more physical needs of the church, relieving the elders to attend to more spiritual ministry. Deacons are to be spiritually fit, and the qualifications of deacons are given in 1 Timothy 3:8–13. In summary, elders lead and deacons serve.
Arguing against interpreting "deacon’s wives" as "female deacons" is the fact that it would be unusual for Paul to give qualifications for deacons in verses 8-10 and 12-13, with qualifications for deaconesses in between.
Can an unmarried man be a deacon or elder? Is marriage a qualification to serve in church leadership according to 1 Timothy chapter 3?
Her designation as “deacon” (or “servant” in the ESV) could mean that she held an official position within the church as a deaconess or simply that she was someone who was known to serve the church faithfully (the Greek diakonos means “servant”).
