Watch: A new TV spot links Risen to the Easter holiday

This coming Sunday is Easter on the western church calendar, and the people behind the current crop of “faith-based” movies are hoping that Christians will spend a little time at the movie theatre in addition to their time at church. Thus, we have seen a non-stop stream of new videos this week for Miracles from Heaven — all of which you can watch here — and now we have a new TV spot for Risen, the film about the death and resurrection of Jesus that is told from the point of view of a Roman officer.

Here is the new TV spot, which quotes author Karen Kingsbury:
