This Easter Sunday, April 5th, 2015, A.D. The Bible Continues will premiere on NBC and continue on a 12-week journey through the rise of the Christian Church.  

Executive producers Roma Downey and Mark Burnett continues where there The Bible series left off.   With the Book of Acts and Paul’s letters as its foundation plus some artful use of history, A.D. The Bible Continues starts with the Crucifixion and The Resurrection.  The complicated birth of the early Church was a time filled with enormous faith, persecution, political intrigue, brutal Roman oppression and the Jewish revolt.
