"A Musical Spectacular on the Life of Christ"
A major musical work. Shot entirely in Israel. Composed and Performed by Rick Wakeman. A contemporay interpretation of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
"The Word" is a gripping interpretation of Jesus Christ as told in a television spectacular of words, music, and stunning visual imagery.
