Faith-based content continues to surge in popularity
The newest sensation on Netflix is a three-part docudrama recounting the life of Moses, currently holding the top spot as the most-watched streaming show. Titled “Testament: The Story of Moses,” the series traces Moses’ journey from being an outcast in exile to becoming a revered prophet and leader. Renowned actor Charles Dance, known for his role in “Game of Thrones,” narrates the series, which also incorporates insightful interviews with experts to delve deeper into the complexities of Moses’ narrative, offering a richer understanding of this pivotal biblical figure.
Emre Sahin and Kelly McPherson, the producers, noted the allure of exploring the lesser-known aspects of Moses’ life beyond the grandiose elements often portrayed, such as the burning bush, the plagues, Passover, the parting of the Red Sea, and the Ten Commandments. They were particularly drawn to Moses’ internal struggles, his journey of self-discovery, battles with self-doubt, and his inherent humanity.
The popularity of “Testament” on Netflix is remarkable considering the diverse range of content typically trending on the platform. Other faith-based films including Jesus Revolution and The Chosen have also made the trending list on Netflix. “Testament” continues building the momentum of faith-based offerings, paving the way for more innovative series on Netflix.
All three episodes of “Testament: The Story of Moses” are streaming now on Netflix, inviting viewers to delve into the profound and timeless story of one of history’s most influential figures.
