In the Gospel of Luke we have a record of the parable of the wineskins that Jesus told his disciples. In Luke 5: 36-38, we read: “[N]o one pours new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the new wine will burst the old skins [which are hard and inflexible]; the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined. No, new wine must be poured into new wineskins….”

This episode is all about the power of encouragement, which arises from purity of heart.
In contrast to Ananias and Sapphira mentioned in Acts 5, Barnabas lived from a heart that was "all-in" for Jesus, a heart sustained by charity and solidarity with the Christian community. The heart of Barnabas was brought to perfection by his complete dedication to the covenant communion established between God and humanity in the person of Jesus Christ and in His "Body" the Church we have today. With his way of making small acts of encouragement, Barnabas encouraged Paul and thus gave him to us even up to this day as a powerful preacher and teacher and depository of the mighty acts of God. Come away with EvangeliNation for 20 minutes today! It just might change your life. And...don't forget to pass it on. (Don't be afraid. You can do it!) That's what makes you join in the missionary journey of this message of the Gospel. Together, "let us encourage one another daily while it is still 'today'" (St. Paul's Letter to the Hebrews 3:13).
