Description
?️ The Saints: Adventures of Faith and Courage
?️ Saint Genesius - Episode One: Talking the Talk
Rome, 303 AD. Emperor Diocletian struggles to unite an unwieldy and crumbling empire. The new Christian religion has torn many Romans away from traditional imperial paganism. In response to this, Diocletian issues an edict making Christian worship illegal. Christians are forced to gather in secret and face imprisonment - or worse. For two up-and-coming local actors, this persecution, along with Diocletian’s impending visit to Rome, presents an opportunity. This is the story of Saint Genesius.

Taken from his Christian parents as a child, Genesius was raised by a cruel relative. He eventually ran away from home in order to become an actor. As much as he wished to become a great and successful comedian, when he finally meets the Truth of Christianity, Genesius abandons his ambitions and is willing to accept even death before denying his faith.
This series contains moments of intensity and mild arguments. Genesius and his friend Crassus lie about wanting to become Christians. Christians are imprisoned for their faith. Crassus and Genesius perform their play which mocks baptism and Christianity. Genesius visits a raided home-church. Mentions are made to Christians being tortured for their faith. The series ends with an implied martyrdom.
