‘A.D.: The Bible Continues,’ an NBC Mini-Series

On April 5, Easter Sunday night, NBC broadcasts the first installment of “A.D.: The Bible Continues,” a 12-episode follow-up to “The Bible"

A.D. The Bible Continues is a triumph! It tells the riveting story of the very beginning of the Church with reverence, excitement and brilliance. This series not only captures our attention but also our hearts as we trace the steps of those who first walked in the way of Jesus. While A.D. The Bible Continues dazzles the eye, it also engages the imagination. The narrative recounts how, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, a small band of men and women witnesses to the Risen Lord set out to change the world. The mission endures today and people everywhere can find both drama and inspiration in this telling of the story of the Church, her origins, mission and timeless challenge. A.D. The Bible Continues helps us recover the wonder of the ongoing Christian adventure."
