Kurt Bruner, executive producer ; Philip Glassborow, producer ; Dirk Maggs, adaptation/director ; Matthew Strachan, music composer and orchestrator.Russell Boulter, Colin McFarlane, Sally-Ann Burnett, Timothy Bateson, Peter Goodwright, Bernard Cribbins, Martin Jarvis, Eleanor Tremain, Wendy Craig.An unforgettable account of betrayal, revenge, redemption, Focus on the Family Radio Theatre's production of Ben-Hur tells the tale of a nobleman who fell from Roman favor and was sentenced to live as a slave-all at the hands of his childhood friend, Messala. Once nearly brothers, any hope of reconciliation is dashed after Messala is seriously injured during a vicious chariot race won by the vindictive Ben-Hur. But what makes this adaptation of Lew Wallace's best-selling story unforgettable is the changed man Ben-Hur becomes after seeing Christ on the cross. Recorded in London with film-style sound, this action-packed production shares that compassion is the true path to redemption.
