Documentary that sets out to explore the rediscovery of the purported site of Jesus Christ's baptism. The place of baptism was lost from human knowledge for over 1,000 years until archaeologists were permitted to begin searching by the river Jordan.

A man (Alan Bates) on the run for murder hides out at a nearby barn. Through a series of bizarre twists he is discovered by three children (Hayley Mills, Diane Holgate and Alan Barnes), who believe they have stumbled across Jesus and attempt to keep him hidden from the grown-ups. Based on the novel by Hayley Mill's mother, Mary Hayley Bell.

In this, the final story in the Close to Jesus series from the producers of the Bible series, we follow the life-story of Joseph of Nazareth, Mary's husband.

With lives caught between the collision of the paranoid and evil King Herod and the dominant Roman Empire of Caesar Augustus, Joseph finds himself acting as father to his nephews until eventually he is called to higher things.

The betrothal to Mary, the Visitation and Annunciation, the hirth of Christ, the journey of the Three Wise Men, the flight to and exile in Egypt are all here in this dramatic telling of the family and lives of those closest to Jesus.

"The Christian family is and has always been the strength of a nation."

“People often ask me what my qualifications are as a preacher and I always say, I’m the husband of one wife, five children, nine grandchildren and twenty-seven adopted children. How are things with your family? It concerns me that the family unit is disintegrating before our very eyes. Family is everything to me and do you know what, it’s everything to God. So I trust that you are going to enjoy these messages and that they are going to make a difference in your family. May God bless you.” - Angus Buchan
