He constantly challenges those in power for their self-righteousness. This film about the life of Jesus takes the actual Gospel text as it's script, word-for-word, unedited. Five years in the making, this epic production has been critically acclaimed by leading religious scholars as a unique and highly authentic telling of the Jesus story.

The story of Jesus fits within the larger story of the Judeo Christian tradition. The purpose of everything since creation has been to point to the life of Jesus. All of creation speaks of the majesty of God. As God created man and woman he intended them to live in peace with him forever. But because of their disobedience mankind was separated from God. But God still loved mankind so throughout the Scriptures God reveals his plan to save the world.
