“The Twelve Voices of Easter Radio Special” – produced by Back To The Bible, In Christ's hours of dark sorrow, from His arrest in the garden to His agonizing death on the cross, friends and followers abandoned Him and foes assailed Him. Yet voices of faith and adoration were still heard among the uncelebrated players in the Easter story--a common criminal, a Roman soldier and a weary traveler. The Easter story demands a verdict. Ambivalence toward Jesus, as Pilate learned, is unbelief. Will you join the voices of Mary Magdalene, Cleopas, Thomas and others, and recognize that Jesus is the risen Lord, the Savior of sinful man? Like Peter, you will discover that Jesus longs to offer you forgiveness and a second chance. This unique radio drama written by Dr. Woodrow Kroll and Keith Ghormley will enrich your understanding of Easter. – 55:00 Click here for more info online

Adventures In Odyssey Easter Special – It’s radio drama for the whole family! Tom visits Whit to talk to him about a student in Tom's Sunday school class--Digger Digwillow. Digger doesn't show any interest in learning about Scripture and thinks the Bible is boring. So Whit decides to work on an invention that may raise Digger's interest. When Digger visits, Whit introduces him to the Imagination Station. Whit explains that it's an invention which, through the imagination, helps people to experience the Bible and history. Digger doesn't think it will work on him, but he climbs in, pushes the red button, and soars back to first-century Jerusalem. There, Digger lives through the last week of Jesus' earthly life-from the Triumphal Entry to the Last Supper; to the trial, the crucifixion, and the resurrection. Digger also personally encounters the Savior. In the process, Digger gets nearly trampled by a crowd, arrested by Roman soldiers, thrown into prison, and learns to believe.
