This History Channel special provides a revealing look at the group of poor tradesmen who went on to become some of the most celebrated revolutionaries in all of history. Tom, John, Peter, Matt, Jim --their names are still some of the most common, even down to our own times. But who was this intriguing group of men handpicked by Jesus to carry out the most preposterous assignment ever given to take his message to the whole world? What kind of men were they? What happened to them after Jesus left? Where did they go with their world-challenging and life-changing message?

This program follows the lives of the twelve and shows how after the resurrection of Jesus they went against incredible odds into all parts of the world. We learn of their unusual powers and of their extraordinary courage to face savage persecution. Most of them paid for their faith with their lives. Here is their ever-inspiring story!
