REVIEWS BY CRITICS

“..a cinematic Bible class that flatters the chosen but has little to offer anyone who is not already a believer..”
by Kenneth Turan [Los Angeles Times]
“..careful in its treatment of the material but has trouble finding a good balance between reverence and entertainment..”
by Sarah Bryan Miller [St. Louis Post-Dispatch]
“..slow, plodding, and not terribly interesting..”
by James Berardinelli [ReelViews]
