Today with God

Today with God. The Gospel of Matthew Volume 2 (Episodes 7-14)

As Randy Weiss introduces each story from The Visual Bible Gospel of Matthew we are transported back to ancient Israel as the drama of His life unfolds.

Jesus continues to heal the afflicted and teach his message of loving service to others. We share with His followers a growing recognition that this beloved friend and companion is, indeed, the long-awaited Messiah. The prediction of His own death and the glory of His transfiguration cause both wonder and devastation in the hearts of Jesus' disciples.

Alarmed at His growing popularity and outraged by his revolutionary message, the religious authorities question and attack Jesus at every turn. An angry Jesus cleanses the temple and a compassionate Jesus grieves over His own people. Feel the emotion when He weeps, "Oh, Jerusalem, Jerusalem..."

Actor Bruce Marchiano, in a unique portrayal, draws us into the drama and emotion of the life of Christ. We experience tension and intrigue as Jesus sets the scene for the traumatic final days.

As Jesus' ministry moves towards its ultimate purpose and climax, the conflict with the religious establishment deepens in this word-for-word TV series from the book of Matthew. Concerned about His huge following and furious about His radical concept of a heart-motivated faith over outward observance of the laws, they criticize and denounce Him continually.

Against the ceremony and pageantry of First Century Jerusalem, Jesus' final hours unfold with painful reality as actor Bruce Marchiano draws us into every vivid emotion. We join Him at the last Supper and in the Garden of Gethsemane. Share the pain of Judas betrayal and Peter's unforgettable denial. Stand at His side as He faces the might of Rome and the rejection of His own people.

Richard Kiley, playing the role of Matthew, leads us through the events at Golgotha... as the anguish of the cross is transformed by the glory of the resurrection. This vivid portrayal of the Gospel of Matthew ends with Jesus' last command and the promise... "surely I am with you always to the very end of the age."
