An Exploration Of The Journey To Modern Day Christianity
Renowned journalist Peter Jennings takes you back to a time and place when Christianity was a tiny movement struggling for survival and tells the story of Jesus and Paul, two men of remarkable faith, iron will and radical vision. This ABC News special examines Paul's role in the birth of Christianity through the perspective of a wide variety of biblical scholars-secular and religious, Christian and Jewish, liberal and conservative. Both conservative and liberal scholars say it was Paul who first articulated the ideas we have about Jesus and preached them in a way that was appealing to a broad audience. This program also looks at Paul's role in turning Christianity into a religion that was separate from Judaism. Jesus and Paul sacrificed everything for the belief that god had chosen them to change the world. Without them the religion that we know today as Christianity would not exist.
