# 7
The day following Paul's stoning at Lystra, the missionaries journeyed to another secluded city, Derbe, located about 70 miles southeast of Lystra.

Paul preached in Derbe and "made many disciples" (Acts 14:21), one of them was (Gaius) who later accompanied Paul on his journey through Greece (Acts 20:4).

Only recently has it been identified with certainty, and we have little information about the site.
