After Peter had met and baptized Cornelius, Peter went to Jerusalem and explained to the brethren there that God intended people from all nations to be part of His Church. The Church was growing quickly, so the Apostles sent a man named Barnabas to Antioch to shepherd the flock there. It was in Antioch that the brethren were first called Christians. God was calling more and more people, so Barnabas went looking for Saul to help.
