PBS documentary on Peter and Paul tonight This looks interesting: A two-hour documentary on PBS tonight about the early church and its two predominant leaders. Filmmaker Margaret Koval claims on the >PBS promotional site that she tried to make a historical, not religious, documentary. "It is structured around the career of Paul, mostly, and his evolving relationship with fellow Jesus followers such as Peter," she says. "That personal journey is our central storyline. It's full of great conflicts and dilemmas that enable the film to introduce other topics which, inevitably, take a back seat to the story of Peter and Paul." Link via ChristianityToday Weblog, which notes that the film will portray early Christianity as a Jewish sect because, as Koval explains, "Christianity as we understand it today simply did not exist. Paul certainly joined forces with the new sect, but it was very self-consciously a Jewish sect."
