As produced by The Discovery Channel, this program takes an objective and non-partisan survey of Jesus Christ, the individual who Christians believe was the incarnation of God, single-handedly responsible for Christianity. Utilizing comprehensive analysis of various historical texts, it asks probing questions about Christ's identity, His childhood and the course of His life, message, mission, and violent death - a death that embodies the crux of Christian teaching. Three very different experts, including a theologian, a historian and an archaeologist, create a comprehensive picture of Christ's identity by reconstructing various elements of the period in which He lived, and drawing on such resources as recent archaeological findings. The program explores such key subtopics as Jesus's meeting with John the Baptist, His ministry along the banks of the Sea of Galilee, His triumphant entry into Jerusalem and His Crucifixion.
