The Bible's Greatest Secrets: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

Supplemented by re-enactments, THE BIBLE'S GREATEST SECRETS uses scientific experiments, archaeological evidence, and interviews with historians, theologians, and other experts to explore, examine, and discuss various biblical passages and events.
