I love watching movies that are based on the Bible. It’s a wonderful way to learn more about the history of my religion and it helps give me a clearer understanding of what’s in the Bible. If you’ve seen The Gospel of John or The Gospel of Mark in the past, you’ll want to keep reading because The Gospel of Luke is now available on DVD as well!

The Gospel of Luke
Following The Gospel of John and The Gospel of Mark comes the third installment in the renowned Gospel film series, The Gospel of Luke, arriving on DVD, Digital HD, and On Demand October 17 from Lionsgate. The third book of The New Testament comes to life for the first time with a truly unique, word-for-word adaptation that uses the gospel narrative as its script. Shot on location in Morocco with consultation from expert theologians and biblical scholars, and produced by the Lumo Project, The Gospel series was given the Dove Faith Friendly Seal for 12+. The Gospel of Luke DVD will be available for the suggested retail price of $14.98.
The Gospel of Luke, more than any other, fits the category of ancient biography. Luke, as “narrator” of events, sees Jesus as the “Savior” of all people, always on the side of the needy and the deprived. Narrated in the NIV by British actor Richard E. Grant and in the KJV by Sir Derek Jacobi, this epic production — featuring specially constructed sets and the authentic countryside of Morocco — has been critically acclaimed by leading religious scholars as a unique and highly authentic telling of the Jesus story.
My thoughts:
This is a gorgeous retelling of the Gospel of Luke as it is in the Bible. It is filmed in Morocco so the setting really does naturally look like it would have in Jesus’ time. One of the reasons that we really love these movies is that they are told exactly as if they were read from the Bible. You can even follow along with your Bible while you watch it if you want to. This is Luke’s story about Jesus’ life from His birth through His death. The costuming and everything else about this movie is just so realistic that it gave me a much better idea of what Jesus’ life was like than by just reading the Bible. Highly recommend.
