A Christian organization, Jehovah’s Witnesses, has released an epic all-volunteer production portraying Jesus Christ’s Life and Teachings.
The production, which was released in May 2024, has an 18-episode comprehensive look at the life and ministry of Jesus Christ, His personality and interactions with people.
According to the Regional Spokesman of Jehovah’s Witnesses, Ezekiel Bolaji, Episode 1 is released as a special feature of the 2024 “Declare the Good News!” conventions of Jehovah’s Witnesses, while subsequent episodes will be released at future conventions.
“We are excited to release this to the public after years of planning and set construction. We truly believe that this series will touch the hearts of millions of people in ways no other drama about Jesus Christ ever has,” Bolaji stated.
He disclosed that cameras began rolling in May 2022 at the national headquarters of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Australia where more than 500 volunteers constructed over 75,000 square feet of historically-accurate sets.
Bolaji said that the sets also featured animals mentioned in the Bible, such as donkeys, sheep, pigeons and camels, adding that some scenes were even shot on locations in the Judean wilderness in Israel.
He said: “The release happens just weeks after the Witnesses commemorated their most important day of the year, the memorial of the death of Jesus Christ held on March 24, 2024.”
