The ambitious radio series, The Greatest Story Ever Told—based on the book of the same name by Fulton Oursler—came to ABC in the 1940s with a full orchestra and 16-voice chorus.

The Bible as we know it today is best understood as a process, one that begins in the tenth century BCE.

Eyewitness Bible Series: Luke is meant to imitate some of the stories Luke might have heard, as well as explore their meaning and importance. This series is true to the Bible, but fills in storylines based on history, geography, and imagination.

He discovers a key that gives validity to an entire life's purpose as a Christian. And that key to Jesus' life was obedience.
