Acts 13:2 ” Set apart for Me Barnabus and Saul for the work to which I have called them.”

The time was now for the rubber to finally hit the road for the early Church. They had enjoyed a wonderfully blessed period of fellowship, building up the body of Believers within, and worshipping their risen Savior…but this was all inwardly focused. And it seemed like the disciples had kinda forgotten about Jesus giving them the Great Commission to, “Go and make disciples of all nations.” (Matthew 28:16-20) So in the same way the eagle stirs up the nest in order to teach her young to fly, (Deuteronomy 32:11) God was pushing His youngsters out of their warm cozy environment to try their wings. And thus, this was the very first Missionary journey of Paul & Barnabus as they carried the Gospel Message into new regions.
