Program: #04-17 Air Date: Apr 19, 2004
With the current interest in the story of Christ's Passion rekindled by the recent popular film, we examined over three weeks how the story was told during the first twelve centuries of Christianity.
Preservation of this program is made possible by a generous grant in honor of Fr. Michael Flanagan, from Nora Bayer.
