I agree. This looks amazing! I am so glad you shared this news here so that I could share it with my friends and family. We will all be watching! Blessings to you during this season of Lent!
ReplyDeleteGod bless you for sharing and God bless all that watch. I have a feeling this may be the first time many will see the true story of Jesus. I pray it will impact many. Thank you Roma Downey and Mark Burnett! God bless you both! I have been a big fan of Touched by an Angel for years, so it is good to see Roma a part of something that shares her faith again.
ReplyDeleteJesus is a portuguese actor. I'm so so proud :)
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that so many people are looking forward to this Movie MiniSeries.
ReplyDeleteIt is my hope that The Bible: The Epic Miniseries will touch and reach many people who watch it.
I agree with your comments above... it does look amazing and incredible!
God bless you all!
I really do appreciate for this true story but we must be careful that the person who is getting the roll of JESUS can he really show the impact as JESUS did? Anyway, May God Bless us all!
ReplyDeleteIs anyone watching the bible series now? If you arevehat were your thoughts when the angels if God we're turned into Ninjas when they were saving Lot and his family? To me that was not right! !!!!!! What are your rhoughts
ReplyDeleteJESUS IS THE LORD !!!!!
ReplyDeleteI started watching the mini series and I am just so moved how anointed this movie is. Praise God. We need more movies like this in Hollywood.
ReplyDeleteI watched the first two episodes and felt there was too much EMPHASIS on violence so have not watched any further episodes. It certainly is not family viewing. I am a long time Christian and was deeply disappointed. There is more to the Bible story than killing! I believe the old Charleton Heston Bible movies were more accurate and much easier to watch.
ReplyDeleteIn this series, The actor who played jesus was required to follow their script,but the script misquoted Jesus's actual words. This is extremely serious and forbidden. The series is good except forthat
