In this podcast we dive into the biblical understanding of spiritual authority and the dynamics of apostolic power. While discussions around spiritual fathers and submission are prevalent, we often overlook the true essence of how power and authority function within the Kingdom of God. In our exploration, we’ll see Jesus as the ultimate model, but we’ll also spotlight figures like Barnabas—an embodiment of self-giving love and risk-taking. Together, we’ll examine the apostolic mission through the lens of Acts, highlighting how Barnabas supported Saul’s transformation into Paul, and how this reflects God's intended stewardship of power. Join us as we unpack these themes and discover what it truly means to empower others within the body of Christ, fostering flourishing in both spiritual and relational dimensions. Let’s embark on this journey to start reimagining authority in a Kingdom context. Please subscribe to my channel.
