"The Barnabas Factors: Eight Essential Practices of Church Planting
Team Members," by author and professor J. D. Payne, describes how
Barnabas should be considered as a model for contemporary church
planting team members. Each chapter of this work addresses a
particular "Barnabas Factor," a healthy aspect of Barnabas' life
that assisted in Kingdom expansion. The eight practices include:
Walks with the Lord Maintains an Outstanding Character Serves the
Local Church Remains Faithful to the Call Shares the Gospel
Regularly Raises Up Leaders Encourages with Speech and Actions
Responds Appropriately to Conflict.
The book also includes the Barnabas Factors Standard of Excellence
Guide for Team Development to assist leaders in assessing potential
team members.
What others are saying about"The Barnabas Factors"
This is a very straightforward, non-glitzy look at what the Bible
has to say about team ministry in church planting.
Ed Stetzer, author of "Planting Missional Churches," taken from
the Foreword
Given the risky and pioneering nature of church planting, it is
essential to develop healthy relationships amongst members of the
founding team. Here J. D. Payne gives us a biblical model of
engendering healthy team dynamics by looking to the life and
ministry of Barnabas. This is a book for those of us who want to
keep a joyful camaraderie whilst advancing the kingdom.
Alan Hirsch, author of "The Forgotten Ways" and "The Shaping of
Things to Come"; Founding director of Shapevine.com
If there is a priority need today in church planting, it is a need
for the church planting team members first to be people of
exemplary Christ-like character. . . . Payne's book addresses this
issue in a clear and concise manner.
R. Bruce Carlton, author of "Acts 29," Professor of Cross-Cultural
Ministry, Oklahoma Baptist University
"The Barnabas Factors: Eight Essential Practices of Church
Planting Team Members" is a unique and much needed book for anyone
interested in church planting. I strongly believe it is a must-read
for newly appointed missionaries and just as essential for veteran
missionaries. This book powerfully sets forth the need for godly
personal characteristics that are vital for successful church
planting teams. The diagnostic tool at the conclusion of the book
will be a great help in evaluating potential team members.
Charles Brock, President, Church Growth International; author of
"Indigenous Church Planting: A Practical Journey"
I highly recommend this book. From end to end it is practical:
it's the relationship stuff, the personal qualities of team
members, and the realistic nuts and bolts of ministry that are so
ultimately determinative to fruitfulness in the church planting and
team contexts. Payne brings great clarity as to what is a
missionary "call." And for no extra charge there is a powerful tool
at the end pulling all the principles together to help you decide
who to take onto your team and who not to. A must-read for all
church planters.
Daniel Sinclair, author of "A Vision of the Possible: Pioneer
Church Planting in Teams"
