Church videos

These videos are faithful to the biblical account, with scripts based on the King James Version of the Bible. The text also accompanies each video scene. The videos were filmed in the deserts of Utah.

Follow the footsteps of the Savior through the stony paths of Galilee or the narrow streets of Jerusalem, or watch the tragic scenes in Gethsemane, in Pilate’s courtyard, and on the hilltop of Calvary. We hope that you will feel free to share these videos with family and friends the world over.

Free Mobile Apps too!

In addition to reading about Jesus and His teachings, you will be able to explore biblical environments, watch scripture-based videos and photo slideshows, and discover interesting facts about biblical accounts.
