This is a wonderful CD on the bible through the ages. A timeline approach with humor and wonderful old/current places shown to understand how the scriptures were put together. And more important- How it relates to you now.

Used it with a large group of adults and 6th graders in a religous class. Both got the messages and it held their interest. Defenitely one you can use with teens and adults. Beautiful pictuers.

I think this video was made for high-school students and young adults, but I use it with older adults in a Scripture Study setting, and they enjoy it too. Jonathan Frakes makes a familiar and friendly tour guide through the geographical areas where the stories of the Bible took place, at least to the best of what biblical scholasticism and archeological evidence have been able to provide. The presentation has built-in stopping points about every 20 minutes so a group can pause to react to what they just watched or ask questions. My copy of the DVD did not come with group discussion questions but I wish it had. This DVD is a good overview to establish the settings of both Hebrew and Christian scriptures. It was produced by a Lutheran organization, but is a valuable resource for my Roman Catholic group.

Great overview mixing archeological and factual materials with current issues. Super value and a painless way to learn.

very great insight of the bible. actor Jonathan Frakes(better known as Commander Riker on Star Trek The next Generation) did a great job hosting this documentary. it was very interesting to see the history of time travel of the bible. i love it.

Good production values, but I felt the part where Jesus gets assimilated by the Borg collective to be somewhat speculative.
