Synopsis:

Hurting people abound–and most of them believe they’ve missed out on God’s blessings. Are they destined to doubt God’s love? Or have they missed a crucial element of the Bible’s teaching on how and when God blesses?

The Barnabas Way reveals an untapped secret of spiritual life that guarantees God’s personal, intimate presence with his people throughout each day: God blesses people with his nearness when they seek to be a blessing to others.

This revolutionary truth is vividly illustrated in the often-neglected life story of Barnabas, the New Testament model of an encourager. The Bible says he “encouraged them all to remain true to the Lord with all their hearts. He was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and faith, and a great number of people were brought to the Lord” (Acts 11:23,24).

In The Barnabas Way, author John Sloan introduces readers to this blessed man and reveals how they, too, can be blessed–by being encouragers. When readers start walking on The Barnabas Way, they can begin to satisfy their hunger for a deeper, richer, fuller experience of God. One that guarantees more of God’s greatest blessings: his nearness, his presence, his power at work.
