HE SHALL BE PEACE brings the Gospels of Luke and Matthew to life as never before. Experience the nativity of Jesus, His presentation in the Temple, His childhood in Egypt, and His return, where as a boy He questions the brightest scholars in the Temple. Follow the life of young John the Baptist as he prepares the way for the Lord, longing for the day when their paths would cross. The story of the young Jesus is presented in a manner that fuels the age-old question: What was the childhood of Jesus like?
