Barnabas was known for his encouragement. What did he do that made him gain that reputation? What can we lern from his life that would enable us to encourage one another in that same way? Becoming an encourager is not a gift for those of us who follow Jesus, but we discover that it is a responsibility for us to learn how to stands beside each other on this journey of faith and speak truth, love, and grace into each other's life to encourage one another to become what God has created us to be.
