"The Bible" History Channel Mini Series Premiere
Tonight, Sunday March 3, 22013, the brand new docu-drama mini series 'The Bible" premieres on the History Channel. (2 hours 7-9 pm CST)
Last fall I saw about a 7 minute sneak peak at this production introduced in person by the producers (Mark Burnett and his wife the actress Roma Downey).
If the entire production lives up to the sneak preview I saw then you will not want to miss this.
I only saw one extended scene with the actor playing Jesus but he was perfectly cast. They intentionally cast an actor unknown to American audiences and for once not British!

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"
