Alma returns to Zarahemla after preaching in Gideon and establishes the order of the church. He then travels to the land of Melek and baptizes the people there. He continues his journey to the city of Ammonihah, where Satan has a hold on the hearts of the people and they reject Alma's teachings. Alma prays for the people and an angel appears to him, commanding him to return to Ammonihah and preach again. Alma meets Amulek, who recognizes him as a holy prophet and invites him into his home. They form a friendship and begin preaching to the people, despite facing opposition and imprisonment.
