Courage
Mary Magdalene and other women come to prepare the body with spices prepared and find the stone rolled away and the tomb empty and they are told that He is not there and to go tell the Apostles.
Passion
Jesus is brought before Pilate and is sentenced to die by the Roman crucifixion. A large number of people followed Him, including women who mourned and wailed for Him. Unable to carry the cross bar, Simon of Cyrene was put upon to carry it to Golgotha, where He is crucified for all to see.
Betrayal
Jesus arrives in Jerusalem at the time of Passover, openly declaring that He is the promised Messiah. The High Priest Caiaphas fears that impassioned crowds will start a riot, so the chief priests and scribes sought to kill Him. So Satan entered Judas Iscariot and he went and conferred with them to betray Him.
Mission
Jesus and his disciples move from town to town, preaching love and forgiveness, but this radical approach is not welcomed by everyone. Jesus' miracles grow increasingly wondrous until he conquers death itself, raising Lazarus from the tomb.
Hope
Against a backdrop of Roman oppression, young Mary's faith is rewarded when the angel Gabriel tells her she will carry the Son of God. Jesus is born to Mary and Joseph and, from the outset, His life is in danger. But with guidance from the Holy Spirit, He has His ministry and defeats Satan.
Survival
Nearly four hundred years after the rule of David, Babylonian hordes lay siege to Jerusalem and force the Jews into exile in Babylon, where their identity and faith are tested. Decades later, Cyrus, King of Persia, conquers Babylon. Fulfilling biblical prophecy, Cyrus begins to allow the Jews to return to their homeland.
Kingdom
King Saul and the Israelite army face seemingly impossible odds against the Philistine army and their champion, Goliath. An unlikely here, the young David, defeats Goliath and goes on to lead the Israelites to victory against the Philistines. Saul fears that David means to steal his throne and so betrays his loyal warrior.
Homeland
Joshua conquers Jericho; Delilah betrays Samson as the Israelites battle the Philistines; Samuel anoints David king, a move that could throw the nation into civil war; Saul is consumed with jealousy when David defeats Goliath.
Exodus
While in exile, Moses is told by God at the Burning Bush that he will free the Israelites from slavery. Moses returns to Egypt and, with the help of ten devastating plagues and the miracle of the parting of the Red Sea, he leads the Israelites to freedom.
In the Beginning
Noah endures God's wrath; Abraham reaches the Promised Land but still must prove his faith in God; Moses leads the Israelites out of Egypt, and his faith in God is rewarded when the Red Sea parts to allow the Israelites to escape Pharaoh's chariots; Moses delivers his final message from God-the Ten Commandments.
