Saul was also called Paul which we know him as better.

In the book of Acts in chapter 9 it tells of Sauls conversion while travelling to Damascus.

Saul was still working against the Christians when he was "intercepted" by Jesus. Jesus asked him why he was persecuting him. After saul was blinded by the light that shone from Jesus, Jesus told him to go into the city where he would receive further instructions.

In Damascus a disciple of Christ named Ananias met with Saul (under Jesus's direction) and told him what Jesus told him to say. Saul's blindness was healed and he began preaching the good news about Jesus.

In chapter 13, the Holy Spirit told them that Barnabas and Saul were to be set apart for the work to which Jesus had called them. This was the commissioning of Saul to begin preaching Jesus to people full time.
