  • v 1 to 18 Peter is initially criticised for preaching to Gentiles (non-Jews), but the believers glorify God when they hear the full story of the conversion of Cornelius (Acts 10)
  • v 19 to 24 Oppression makes believers travel further afield to preach, mainly to Jews. Barnabas is sent to help the growing church in Antioch
  • v 25 to 30 Barnabas finds Saul to help preach in Antioch. Then a worldwide famine is prophesied and believers show compassion by sending relief to their fellow believers in Judea
