    This was amazing

    We watched this for Good Friday. We had a group of adults, high schoolers, and middle schoolers, and everyone really enjoyed it. It exceeded all expectations. The artistry was incredibly impressive, and the message well portrayed. We will be watching it again.

    The breath of the story, into a much larger context, was effective. The audience is drawn in through historical fiction -- a created account of John and a slave boy and spans from creation to the dispersing of the disciples. There is, necessarily, blood in scenes. These difficult elements of violence were very thoughtfully portrayed.

    Encouraging and inspiring.

    Magnificent depiction of the story we all know!

    I had the pleasure of being a part of this show during this past fall season tour and it was and is truly life changing. 7 weeks of bliss truly, doing what I love in the best way possible. Depicting the story of our Savior

    Having the opportunity to actually sit and watch it with my peers was incredible, yes we are in the show but, now we got to see it from the audience perspective. What a show it is. The way it emotionally captures you and takes you right at the foot of every event is captivating.

    One of the best parts, John the Beloved haha what a guy that is, Jim Miles is fantastic.

    Everyone. Go watch it! Jesus Loves You.

    Excellent!

    Truly an excellent performance. I'm sure it's even better live, but they did a good job of converting this into a film. There were a few times where all the cut scenes between the difference camera angles was a little choppy. That could be improved with another round of editing. But the performance, story line, and overall experience was tremendous.

    I really appreciated the aerial dancing performances, the narrator, and the sense of humor they gave John. This movie might be a bit confusing to someone who is not familiar at all with the gospels because some scenes are acted out with no words.

    Highly recommend!
