A MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR:

Iâve been a believer my whole life, Iâve attended Christian schools my whole life, and Iâve heard the stories of Jesus countless times. Iâve also seen every Jesus movie and miniseries ever made , and there have been dozens. So why a new TV show about Jesus?

Because I have a passion for people to hear the âold, old storyâ again â¦ for the very first time. When I see Jesus movies, itâs sometimes hard for me to feel moved or excited. I've heard the stories before, and many Jesus projects just take you from Bible story to Bible story, not spending as much time on the humanity and backstories of all these characters. And they sometimes feel stiff and formal.

So when we started to write a show that explores Jesus through the eyes of those around Him, we were repeatedly moved and excited. We explored the backstories of Simon Peter, Matthew, Mary Magdalene, Nicodemus, and a few of Jesusâ miracle recipients, and in turn experienced Him in the way they did. We couldnât help but identify with their recklessness, rough pasts, religious piety, and desperation for life change. And ultimately, their redemption.

One of our favorite responses from an early screening? "The story of Jesus that actually appealed to my teenagers!"

No matter where youâre at in your journey with Christâwhether youâre one of the many people in the gospels who encountered Jesus after a horrific past without Him, or youâre a Nicodemus whoâs been a lifelong member of the God teamâJesus proved over and over that we have so much to learn and innumerable traits that need change.

We hope this show allows you to see Jesus as they did. The end of the trailer tells you how to watch this show right now.
