UPDATED MAR 25, 2019

Spoiler Alert.

The divine story of the birth of Jesus and the life he lived is one of the most significant turning points in history, especially after it became the bedrock of modern Western civilization, or what we now refer to as the Judeo-Christian West.

One of the most influential figures in modern history, Jesus has touched the lives of millions around the globe. "If we want to understand Western history at all, we must understand the story of Jesus," Prof. Ben Witherington III of Asbury Theological Seminary tells in History Channel's all-new miniseries 'Jesus: His Life'.
