Do You Have Your People?

Most of us have friends. Acquaintances. People we like. But there's a different category — the kind of people who show up when everything falls apart, who know you well enough to know what you actually need, and who will tell you hard things because they care too much not to.Do you have those people?In week two of The Grove's mission series, Charlie walks through three stories about a man named Barnabas — one of the most underrated figures in the New Testament — and what it looks like to be that kind of person for someone else. He fought for Paul when nobody believed in him. He found him at his lowest and brought him back. And when Paul needed to hear something he didn't want to hear, Barnabas said it anyway.That's the kind of relationship the church is supposed to be built on.
