- StarsGil GambashDavid SuchetDaniel SchwartzEpisode #101. Suchet begins on the path of St. Paul throughout the Middle East/Asia Minor from Jerusalem to Turkey, and explores Paul's Damascus conversion road experience that would change his life forever. He also seeks to show how Paul's early life in Tarsus would prepare him for his missionary work that would take him across the Roman Empire. In Antioch we encounter Paul and the fledgling church as they make the crucial decision to admit Gentiles into the Christian faith. This episode ends with Suchet's saying that Paul's next big step would be to convert the populations in Europe - which sets Paul up with a confrontation with Rome. Episode #102. Suchet follows Paul's journey to the west where the name of Jesus was not known. Paul wants to convert people to Jesus before the end of the world arrives. But he is doing so in areas where Caesar himself is believed to be a God, and his mission is not well received. Successes are met with failures in places like Philippi and Thessaloniki, but Paul is proud of hardships as they serve to strengthen his resolve to change the world. All roads lead to Rome, the hub of early Christianity, and it is here that Paul will pay the ultimate price.10/10

- DirectorGiulio BaseStarsOmar SharifDaniele PecciFlavio InsinnaSaint Peter, a reluctant but passionate leader, from the crucifixion of Jesus to his own.

In the second half, an aged Peter goes to Rome to join Paul, arriving on the day of Paul's arrest. Paul's death brings a crisis to Rome's Christians and to Peter; lessons from Jesus's teachings guide his decision to stay.

- DirectorDomenic A. ArbustoStarsFred J. ScollayRaymond TateAlfred E. WeilActor Fred Scolay portrays Paul, delivering his final message in prison. The beautiful text of the King James Version comes alive in this one-man soliloquy as Paul thinks, writes, and speaks his final words knowing that death is near. Though the message addressed to the young Timothy, Paul is shedding his mantle and mission on all Christians yet to come. It is a defense of his life, his shortcomings and the glories he has known in his ministry and missionary tasks. It is more so, a man, firmly rooted in and sharing his God, his Savior, Jesus Christ, and his forward look to his life soon to begin with his Lord in heaven.6/10.

- 1983– 2hTV-PG8.3 (168)TV EpisodeDirectorWilliam CranStarsWilliam CranJohn Dominic CrossanGil EdgeleyThe story of the rise of Christianity.Documentary focusing on Jesus, the early church, and Paul. Many of the scholars, such as John Dominic Crossan, are quite liberal and I question some of their conclusions. Wayne Meeks, one of the scholars, is the most balanced of them. At its best it throughly goes into the Jewish and Greco-Roman world of the first century, making it a good learning experience. Despite its flaws, a well made documentary. 7/10
