You may never have heard of BYUtv, but it’s in the midst of broadcasting a smart three-part series on the creation of the most influential book the Western world has ever seen, the King James Bible.
This year is the 400th anniversary of that Bible’s publication, and the TV network, affiliated with Brigham Young University, is marking the anniversary with “Fires of Faith: The Coming Forth of the King James Bible,” a documentary that mixes historical re-creations with well-chosen commentary by academics and religious scholars representing many faiths. Part 2, subtitled “Martyrs for a Book,” first shown Sunday, receives an encore broadcast Wednesday night and focuses on the man largely responsible for the words and phrases most Christians know: William Tyndale.
And for another book men found worth dying for... Book of Mormon - Complexity
