Encouraging one another is one of the most dominant themes in the New Testament, both in the process of founding churches and in building them up to maturity. This concept is used more than 100 times in the book of Acts and in the Epistles.
Barnabas, whose name means "Son of Encouragement" is the most relevant model for this study. His way of encouraging or comforting illustrates the process of mutual service that members of the body of Christ should provide to one another.
Your church can change to become a dynamic and functional organism, where each believer edifies others through mutual exhortation. This book will help you understand this vital element of Christian life.
