To the ancient Greeks, the pantheon of Zeus, Apollo, and other gods seemed immutable. This program explores the world over which they presided—until they were replaced by a new faith, transforming Greece into a Christian land. Topics include the long-held significance of Mt. Olympus; the spiritual role of the city of Delphi, site of the temple of Apollo; the Acropolis, a majestic fortress and shrine to Athena, including the Parthenon and Erechtheum; Corinth, historically a hub of trade and diversity, as well as one of the first centers of Greek Christianity; and biographical aspects of the apostles Paul and John, including the cave on the island of Patmos traditionally held as the site of John’s revelations. A Discovery Channel Production. (26 minutes)
