Very good show.

The appears to be quite a few “liberties” taken at a glance however the possibility they could be the reality are refreshing.

our family is enjoying it.........we've always seen jesus portrayed as stiff and stale in countless movies and such.............I would like to think , the jesus portrayed here, is prob how he was..........hopefully someday , if the lord finds favor on me, , I'll meet him face to face and find out for sure.

A friend has the best painting of Jesus I have ever seen...very cool and unusual...he's laughing like someone just told him a great joke..like one that starts with "A priest, rabbi, and a minister are sitting at a bar..."

I don’t know how far along everyone is watching but what are your thoughts on the distinct separation of God the Father and Jesus the son of man?

I read somewhere where someone asked if Jesus was safe. The reply was no, he's not safe, but he's good.

I liked it but I really wanted to see the "sermon" I was somewhat " upset" that they ended there.... what a cliffhanger

I don’t know if upset is the right word but I know where you are coming from.

How did you react when Judas was introduced?

yea, upset is not the right word - may be disappointed? I thought they did a GREAT job with Judas - and we knew he had to come into the fold at some time. I'm curious to see how Judas transitions over time. For me, this is the best portrayal of the life of Jesus that I have seen- IMO he is "real"

I have never seen the show, but it sounds interesting.
I've watched quite a few shows about Jesus. IMO, by far the best was "Jesus of Nazareth". Robert Powell played Jesus closer to how I would have imagined Jesus more than any other actor.

I watched clips of it just now. I can see why so many of you seem to like it.
Is it on regular TV or just Netflix and some of those?

You can get the app on your phone. Some of the episodes are on YouTube. There is a whole list places you can watch it, all free.

Right! So far they have portrayed him with a good heart and he seems to really understand what is happening. Like you stated, it will be interesting seeing him transform.
