In our broken world, it is a reality that relationships sometimes do not work out the way we would like them to. In the book of Acts we read about Barnabas, whose name means “one who encourages others” (Acts 4:36-37). He is the man who took Paul – then called Saul – under his wing at the beginning of his ministry.

However, the Bible calls us to do our best to mend relationships in a spirit of love.
