A wonderful documentary!


The Messiah: The Lamb of God
BYU put out a 7 -part series entitled - Messiah: Behold the Lamb of God
It is broadcast on the BYU Channel on Sunday evenings. It started in January. Tonight is part 6 - He Is Not Here; For He Is Risen: Resurrection
Feb 21 - Part 7 - Behold The Bridegroom Cometh: Second Coming
This has been so wonderful! It's outstanding and I highly recommend watching it. It's been so educational and informative. They usually show the previous week earlier. At 4pm today it was Part 5 - I Have Trodden The Wine Press Alone: Atonement. That was so good. They have BYU scholars who narrate and tell the story and use the scriptures. It's a wonderful testimony builder! This afternoon was about the Atonement and every time I see that and hear about it I am humbled to tears at how the Savior knew and selflessly suffered and atoned not only for my sins but for every man and woman who has lived, is living and yet to live on this earth. He freely forgave those who so brutally beat him and falsely accused him. He loves us so much and only asks that we 'follow Him' and be obedient and serve others.
Another series that you can now purchase is the BYU TV series of the Joseph Smith Papers. That was also very educational and again humbles you to tears when you learn how selfless Joseph was and he so freely gave of himself and served others. I recently read some history on his wife Emma. She was 5'9" tall and was a school teacher. I don't know if I could be like Emma and endure all that she had to endure. What a wonderful woman!
