We are tracing the overflow of God's goodness, as the gospel wave breaks powerfully over ancient boundaries. In our first study of Acts 11:19–30 we saw a good purpose, a good word, a good step, a good hand, and a good number. Keeping our eye on the mercy and grace of God in Christ, next we turn to a good man called Barnabas, a good work in Antioch, a good plan to involve Saul of Tarsus, a good name for the disciples, and a good gift to Jerusalem, the church in Antioch having received some from them already.
