The Lost Years
A look into Jesus's childhood and adolescence until his reappearance in the Gospels: Robert Powell, star of the 1970s miniseries "Jesus of Nazareth," is on a mission to unlock the mystery of Jesus's lost years. With virtually no mention in the Gospels of his life from his youth to adulthood, Powell is determined to find evidence of the real Jesus during these formative years. Follow him as he journeys across Nazareth, Bethlehem, Sepphoris, and Jerusalem to explore the events that may have transformed this young boy into the iconic preacher he would become.
The Ministry Begins
Jesus' baptism by John the Baptist; Jesus' message that formed the basis of the future Christian religion: The first event in Jesus's life on which all four Gospels agree is his baptism in the River Jordan by a preacher named John the Baptist. It's a moment that will change Jesus's life, shape his teachings, and eventually lead to a dangerous collision course with the Jewish and Roman authorities. Follow Robert Powell, star of the 1970s miniseries "Jesus of Nazareth," as he examines the early days of Jesus's ministry, how he developed his radical message of the coming apocalypse, and built a following with his words, charisma, and miracles.
From Galilee to Jerusalem
Follow the growth of Jesus's ministry as he gathers his disciples, builds his following, and takes his message to Jerusalem: The execution of John the Baptist left Jesus alone to carry the radical apocalyptic message to the people of Israel. Through his sermons and miracles, he built a following, including the 12 men who would become his apostles and the much-maligned Mary Magdalene. Join host Robert Powell, star of the miniseries "Jesus of Nazareth," as he travels from Galilee to Jerusalem to track the growth of Jesus's ministry. Interviews with archaeologists and theologians give a historical perspective to this enormously influential period in Jesus's life.
The Final Days
A look at the final days of Jesus the man, based on archaeological finds and opinions of historians and theologians: Robert Powell, star of the TV miniseries "Jesus of Nazareth," heads to Jerusalem to complete his examination into the life of Christ. Here, he uncovers clues that give historical context to the dramatic events that shaped the days before and after his death. Follow Powell through the Holy City, from the traditional location of the Last Supper to the exact steps where Pontius Pilate is believed to have sentenced Jesus to be crucified, and lastly, to a first-century Jewish tomb, where believers say the real story of Jesus begins.
