Who We Are & What We Do
The John 17:23 Network is being championed by Barnabas Ministries, Inc. Through our groups, pastors from different denominations come together in the kind of unity that Jesus prayed for in John 17:23.
We provide the encouragement, training, and tools needed to foster the creation of John 17:23 groups around the world, as God leads and directs. Our prayer is for authentic spiritual and relational unity among pastoral leaders, based on John 17:23, so that the world will more easily find Jesus.
Mission
Connecting pastoral leaders in John 17:23 groups so they are encouraged, inspired, and enabled to pursue kingdom ministry together.
Our Values
Barnabas Ministries aims to launch a John 17:23 movement, not simply build an organization.
We aim to influence, not control pastoral leaders.
Pastoral leaders are never charged a fee to join or facilitate a John 17:23 group.
Prayer is critically important.
