The religious leaders were upset that Peter and John were teaching about Jesus. They put them in jail overnight.
The next day, Peter boldly said, “The man was healed by the power of Jesus! There is no other name that can save us!”
The leaders said, “Stop talking about Jesus!” But Peter and John said, “We can't stop telling what we've seen and heard!” Then all the believers prayed for more courage.
