Another very sensitive portrayal for Jack Weyland

It's a LDS novel! The back of the book says: "with the cameras going, I looked down at the man. Scabs covered his face and eyes. I found myself wondering what Jesus saw in that blind beggar..."Cut!" Ben called out."Michael, what's the delay here? You're suppose to touch the man's eyes and heal him."The next time I did it right. But for that tiny instant I felt as if I were looking at someone the way Jesus did, with unconditional love. Michael Hill doesn't consider himself a religious man-but the leading role about Jesus of Nazareth is too tempting to turn down. As he studies the Savior's life, he begins to learn about compassion and forgiveness and finds new meaning in family relationships."Thsi story is about the actor mostly, very sensitive, love story also an LDS conversion story. If you like the others, you'll love this one. The job as an actor involves the protrayal of Jesus for the movie. I was very touched as the guy learn about Jesus so he could become Him and what this does to the relationships in his life.
