Saint Barnabas-Columbus Ohio

This is the YouTube channel for St. Barnabas Orthodox Christian Church of Sunbury, Ohio near Columbus, Ohio.

St. Barnabas Orthodox Church has been called by the grace of God to join the whole Church of Jesus Christ to “go…and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit; teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you” (St. Matthew 28:19,20, Orthodox Study Bible). 

Because we have been named after St. Barnabas and are directly associated with Antioch, we believe that we should, in our time and place, follow the examples given for us in the Holy Scriptures and the Holy Tradition of the Church. Therefore, we commit ourselves individually and corporately to develop the character of St. Barnabas who “was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith” (Acts 11:24). We also seek to live lives that are worthy of the name “Christian” since it was at Antioch that that name was first given (Acts 11:26).
