"The Good News" is a documentary about the life of the Apostle Paul as told by the Apostle Luke in the Book of Acts. Using illustrations, scenery shots, symbols, multiple narrators, music, and sound effects, "The Good News" tells the story of how Paul became the chief evangelist of his era, if not of all time. Born Saul of Tarsus, he was a by-the-book Pharisee and a heartless persecutor of Christians who became, ironically, the major spokesman to take Christianity to all nations --- to Jews, to Gentiles, and to kings.
But this hopeful message was received with very mixed reactions. Paul tangled with a stubborn sorcerer in Paphos, a door-splitting earthquake in Philippi, and bloody opposition in Lystra and Jerusalem, among others. But Paul never gave up in his forty-year quest, and his teachings now make up approximately half of the New Testament.
