Jesus

The epic drama about the man whom Christians believe to be the son of God and the Messiah, reveals how he, during his relatively short life, grew from a simple carpenter to a man whose spiritual teachings and loving ways continue to inspire billions of followers nearly two thousand years after his crucifixion. The mini-series explores Jesus' relationships with his mother, Mary and his earthly father, Joseph, his 12 disciples, his devoted friends and followers such as Mary Magdalene and John the Baptist. It also illustrates the politically charged times which Roman Governor Pontius Pilate ruled over Judea, leaders and residents.
