PLOT SYNOPSIS
|
Peter the Redemption follows Apostle Paul (JOHN RHYS-DAVIES) as he is tormented by his denial of Christ. Having spent his life attempting to atone for this failures, Peter’s true devotion as a witness for the Lord is tested yet again as he faces certain death while imprisoned by the cruel Roman Emperor Nero (STEPHEN BALDWIN). During his imprisonment, Peter’s jailer, Roman soldier Martinian (STEVE BYERS), is affected by the holy man’s teachings. Martinian then has an agonizing choice when a devoted servant’s secret Christianity is discovered: does he allow the innocent woman to face a brutal punishment, or risk his own life by doing what he now knows to be right? |
