Early Christianity faced powerful obstacles: Roman might and the power politics of ancient Jerusalem. Yet the new faith transcended origins in a Roman province to absorb the capital of the empire. Using the words of Paul and other ancient writers, interviews with contemporary scholars, and dramatic re-enactments, the film explores how two men weathered crippling disagreements and political persecution to lead a resilient religious movement.
