Barnabas was not only Paul's traveling companion in mission. According to the book of Acts, it was Barnabas who brought Paul to the apostles, and declared to them how, on the road to Damascus, Paul had seen the Lord, and had preached boldly in the name of Jesus (Acts 9:27). He more than lived up to his name "son of encouragement."
