The JESUS film, one of the most effective evangelistic tools of all time, now comes in a version edited primarily for women—Magdalena: Released from Shame.
By box office standards, JESUS was a bust when it released in 1979, earning a mere $4 million. But since then, it has gone on to become arguably the most watched film in movie history, with over 6 billion viewings (including repeated viewings) in less than three decades.
