His impact on the church began with a simple gift to feed hungry believers, then grew into much more. Barnabas was trusted by the original apostles to lead the first organized church outside of Jerusalem, Antioch. He mentored Paul and later Mark, and pioneered the first missionary outreach of the early church.</p><p>The Barnabas Way follows the journey of this amazing leader across the pages of Acts, gleaning the important leadership principles that Barnabas leaves along the way. Those principles set a pattern that Paul and many others have followed, a chain of leadership (or influence) that stretches from the first century to today. </p><p>Barnabas saw what others did not see. He did what others would not do. And Barnabas paid a price that others did not pay to build the kingdom of God in the lives of those he influenced. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>I enjoy reading books where the author's words are more than theory; they are values that are being lived out. <em>The Barnabas Way</em> is authored by a true modern day Barnabas. I have witnessed Isaac Smythia as a leader, pastor, missionary, and ministry field representative. In each of these roles, I've observed the principles he writes about in action in his ministry. <em>The Barnabas Way</em> is a call to see things that no one else sees, and to do things that no one else does. Doug Clay (General Superintendent of the Assemblies of God)</p><p>Every Christ-follower will be profoundly encouraged by the powerful insights that only someone of Isaac Smythia's heart and experience can deliver. It's as though the author conveys the very nature of Barnabas's character in a way that will have readers realizing that they themselves have somehow stepped into Paul's role as a young apprentice. If you know a young minister, missionary or even a young Christian, do them and the body of Christ a favor by getting a copy of this treasure into their hands! John Wootton (Superintendent, Ohio Ministry Network of the Assemblies of God) </p><p>Isaac Smythia writes with the authority of one who has not only studied the story of Barnabas, but has lived out <em>The Barnabas Way</em> in ministry. Isaac begins each chapter as a story teller, describing the "in between the lines" of the biblical text, getting into the mind and heart of Barnabas. The remainder of each chapter is rich in spiritual leadership truths that are valuable to us all. You will appreciate the truths of each chapter in The Barnabas Way regardless of your ministry, position or years as a follower of Jesus. Dave Ellis (Regional Director for Latin American and the Caribbean for Assemblies of God World Missions)</p><p>I have worked with Missionary/Leader Isaac Smythia for nearly 30 years. He is a dedicated practitioner of missions and ministry. I agreed to review <em>The Barnabas Way</em> thinking I would quickly scan through it. However, from the very opening portions of this work I was transported into the story of Barnabas. The applications Isaac pulls from Barnabas' story are replete with every day helps for leaders of every level. I recommend this book to you and am sure you will enjoy it and profit from it as I have already! Jeffrey Dove (Missions Leader, Director of Life Publishers Intl and the Bible Alliance)</p><p>"Coaching" is not a new phenomenon. It is an age old biblical principle modeled throughout the pages of scripture. In <em>The Barnabas Way</em>, Isaac Smythia captures the heart of one of the all-time great coaches, Barnabas. The book's simple concepts can be used by any coach to bring out the God-given potential in those they lead. More than just theory, they are proven principles that Smythia used to help ten young, inexperienced Uruguayan pastors become successful church planters. <em>The Barnabas Way</em> will help anyone interested in leading others on their journey toward greatness. Randy Carter (Lead Pastor, Northside Assembly, Jackson, Tennessee)</p><p>I plan to use <em>The Barnabas Way</em> as a teaching resource with my Church Staff and Ministry Teams. Barnabas has much to offer when it comes to leadership lessons and Isaac Smythia draws out the best of those lessons. The book is not just full of good ideas and theories, but also practical leadership principles that can help bring life transformation for the sake of the Kingdom. Sharing from his vast experiences in a variety of leadership settings Isaac outlines his ministry leadership philosophy rooted in the life of Barnabas.
