Light of the World
An ordinary boy, an extraordinary faith.
Directed by John J. Schafer, Tom Bancroft
Produced by Salvation Poem Project, Epipheo
A warmly animated retelling of Jesus's ministry centered on intimate relationships and spiritual awakening, designed to inspire faith through the eyes of a young disciple.
It's 30 AD and everyone is expectantly awaiting the coming Messiah. While Jesus isn't exactly what they imagined, there is something special about this man. Soon, John, James, Andrew, Peter, and others begin to follow Jesus on an unexpected adventure. This beautifully animated story of Jesus is told through the eyes of his beloved young friend, the Apostle John.
