After the death of Stephen prosecution breaks out against the fledgling church. Stephen is buried, and Saul goes house to house throwing men and women into prison. While the Twelve apostles remain in Jerusalem, many Christians are scattered about, preaching the Word all the while. Some go to Judea and Samaria, and these areas are evangelized with accompanying signs and wonders including the casting out of demons. “Great joy” came to those who heard the good news of Jesus.
