"My yoke is easy and my burden light,"  Matthew 11:30

Barnabas Ministries

Encouragement means: to give courage to, to inspire with courage, to help, to give support or to embolden.


This is what Barnabas Ministries is all about. We are a: 

  • A Ministry of Encouragement
  • A Ministry Standing on the Word of God
  • A Ministry Equipping for Service, Counseling and Support, and Faith Building.


"Encourage and build one another up"  1 Thessalonians 5:11


"Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.  Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.  For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”  Matthew 11:28-30 


Joseph, a Levite from Cyprus, was called "Barnabas", the Son of encouragement by the Apostles in Acts 4:36.


We believe the Church should be encouragers.  The Lord gave gifts for the purpose of encouraging.  Like all service, serving in the Kingdom can be taxing, tiring and sometimes trying.


Barnabas Ministries was established to encourage the Church (YOU) to continue in its work and to not grow weary in doing works of service.


"But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called today."  Hebrews 3:13


Barnabas Ministries is an independent ministry, having it's own board of trustees. 


We are affiliated with Person to Person Ministries in Hillsboro, Ohio as an umbrella ministry.

Barnabas Ministries Theme Song

One with vocals and one with just instruments!

Lyrics by Art Bush

You extend your loving hand,

Down to each and every man

Come refresh your life in Me

Come and learn now at my Feet.


My yoke is easy

And my burden is light

Take it upon you

You can trust in My might.

I am a friend who

As a brother will be

Take it upon you

And walk with me.


When the world

Has pressed me down

And no peace

There can be found

And I'm looking for a friend

Then I hear You say again


My yoke is easy

And my burden is light

Take it upon you

You can trust in My might.

I am a friend who

As a brother will be

Take it upon you

And walk with me.
