A History Of God

Based on Karen Armstrong’s ground-breaking book A History of God, this film examines the concept of God in the three major monotheistic religions from the days of Abraham to modern times. Through analysis of historic and holy texts and incorporation of ancient art and artifacts, the program explores the deity written about in the Bible, the Torah and the Quran. The evolution and intertwining of various Christian, Jewish and Islamic interpretations of God are also addressed.
