He's the Greatest (1 of 4)
Series: Who Is Jesus
Tony Thomas
Hebrews 1:1-3
Michael J. Fox made his mark in Hollywood playing the role of Alex P. Keaton in Family Ties. But, he's best known as Marty McFly in the Sci-Fi trilogy, Back to the Future. With the aid of his flux capacitor he accidentally drove Doc Browns' DeLorean's thirty years into the past.

More good is done is his name than any other name on earth! And while the world takes his name in vain, we are doing our best to change the world, one life at a time, in his name!
The Life of Brian was a sacrilegious movie that was produced in the late 70s. It was supposed to be a parody of Jesus (we were in college at the time and I never saw it). But, Eric Idle, the star of the movie, reveals the inside story of how that movie evolved.
The cast decided to read the Gospels together as a group. Their original goal was to satirize the life of Jesus, but after readi ...
