They were Christ’s first adherents, closest companions and partners in spreading God’s Word. He chose twelve personally; the last came to Jesus only after the Crucifixion, yet was arguably the most important figure in Christianity’s early history.
From Peter’s conversion to Paul’s missions, this authoritative collection draws on ancient texts, visits to sacred sites and interviews with esteemed theologians to explore the lives, legacies and world of THE APOSTLES. The Story of the Twelve Apostles, narrated by Martin Sheen, reveals the extraordinary, untold tales of the men Jesus selected to bring God’s plan to the world. And Paul the Apostle examines the earliest extant Christian writings to shed light on the man who ensured the religion’s survival.
Go far beyond the scriptures for an illuminating look at the ordinary men whose faith forever changed the world.
THE APOSTLES contains two complete, acclaimed programs from THE HISTORY CHANNEL available on DVD for the first time.
