Easter: John's Eyewitness Account
Why is Easter so important to Christians?
This series of five films shows the disciple, John, and his friend as they write down the story of the last days of Jesus' life on earth.
Beginning with the triumphant entry into Jerusalem and ending with the resurrection, the films not only outline the events of Holy Week and Easter but also tell us why these events are so important to Christians all over the world.
This is the same disciple who was an eyewitness to all these things and wrote them down. And we all know that his eyewitness account is reliable and accurate. (John 21:24)
