THE CHRIST - An Easter Audio Epic

Featuring primary character voices portraying Jesus and his core disciples; concise mini bio: actors bring biblical figures to life through dramatized scripture. The story follows the empty tomb, the disciples’ shock and doubt, intimate restorative encounters, and a final commissioning that reframes suffering, identity, and mission. Powerful scenes include Gethsemane, the folded shroud, and the Sea of Tiberias reunion.

Jesus of Nazareth, portrayed by a lead cast member, is the central figure whose teachings and miracles shape the story. Short scenes show healings, the Sermon on the Mount and radical ethics like loving enemies. Parables, forgiveness, the cost of discipleship, authority over nature, and a servant vision of God are highlighted in vivid dramatic moments.

John the Baptist, a prophetic voice calling Israel to repentance and baptism. Jesus of Nazareth, the central figure beginning his ministry, facing temptation and performing his first public miracle. They speak about prophetic fulfillment, testing in the wilderness, calling disciples, and the surprising nature of the kingdom. Tension with political and religious leaders surfaces as the long-awaited arrival unfolds.

Jesus of Nazareth (portrayed by David Oyelowo), the central figure whose trial and crucifixion are dramatized.
