The life story of Jesus is told from his humble birth through his teachings, crucifixion and ultimate resurrection.

John, the last surviving disciple of Christ, is living in exile as he tells his story.

Jesus was born to a virgin, and three visiting wise men declare “Him” the future King. 33 years later, an adult Jesus Christ (Diogo Morgado) travels to Galilee and begins recruiting followers, from James, to his brother John, to Peter the fisherman, to Matthew the tax collector. These men and women would become His disciples. Through His teachings and numerous miracles, Jesus builds a huge following, who begin to call Him the Messiah. He also draws the attention of the Pharisees, the Jewish religious leaders. The Pharisees claim Jesus is blaspheming God by forgiving sins, which is something only God can do. Jesus responds by saying he is the Son of God.
