Description
Christians around the world are celebrating one of the holiest, if not the holiest, times of year for believers -- Easter -- which recognizes the sacrifices of Jesus Christ on the cross, when he died for all of humanity's sins and then was resurrected three days later. But even for steadfast believers there are certain stories in the Bible the prove a challenge to faith. One of them is the Genesis account of God telling Abraham to sacrifice his son, Isaac. At the last second, God stayed his command and prevented Abraham from inflicting the fatal stab. But Christians nonetheless wonder: Why did God order Abraham to sacrifice his son, anyway? Isn't that evidence of God's cruelty? And for the non-believer, this biblical story has historically proven a sticking point. Now comes a new movie about just this story to show a) God is not cruel and b) God loves his creations and would never harm them. David Helling discusses "His Only Son," a movie in nearly 2,000 theaters in America about the famous Genesis story.
