Apart from Jesus Himself, no person shaped the history of Christianity like the Apostle Paul. Even before he was a believer, his actions were intense. However, Paul's personal encounter with Jesus Christ changed his life. He never lost his fierce intensity, but from then on it was channeled for the gospel. Ben Kingsley narrates the story of how Paul preached for Christ throughout the Roman Empire on three missionary journeys. Follow in the footsteps of the Apostle to Jerusalem, Antioch, Philippi, Athens, Corinth, Ephesus, Malta and Rome where he was executed for the faith he once denounced.
Bonus Program: First Martyrs In Rome: Christians were denounced everywhere by the Romans because they were such a threat to the Roman establishment. Christians believed in on god, whereas the Romans had many gods, including Caesar. the Christians were committed to an authority higher than Caesar. This film tells the story of four martyrs - Clement, Cecilia, Apollonius, and Agnes. Each made the ultimate sacrifice rather than deny their faith. the placed where many of the events occurred are shown in the film and can still be visited today. Hosted and narrated by award-winning actor, Joseph Campanella.
Total running time: Approximately 2 hours.

I am a Reverend and purchased this video for our church movie night. I previewed it and boy was I glad. I found it very third rate as far as video quality and content. I was expecting a review of Paul's life but instead I got kind of a highlight reel. It did not give very much information on him and barely scratched the surface of his works. I must admit, I was extremely disappointed. I did not show the movie to my congregation but rented a different movie instead.

Scenic! A very nice production of a basic documentary on Paul although not in depth as most of these one volume dvd's are not. Completely narrated by Ben Kingsley and nicely done. This would be a good edition to add to your library. Excellent price!CBD member price is $8.99.

It departs too far from the biblical account as recorded in the book of Acts. I encourage the viewer to check it against the biblical account.
