The biblical epic "Joseph & Mary" starring beloved "Hercules" actor Kevin Sorbo reveals the power of forgiveness.

"Joseph & Mary" follows the story of Jesus' life and the prophet Elijah, a devout Rabbi, after King Herod ordered the mass slaughter boys age 2 and younger in an attempt to kill Jesus. Herod's decree led to the deaths of two boys Elijah had sworn to protect which led him to seek revenge.

As Elijah makes it his life's mission to avenge the young boys' deaths, he meets Joseph, Mary and their young son, Jesus. Soon the beliefs fueling his revenge are put into question by Joseph, who urges Elijah to choose love over hate, and he must decide whether to kill or choose forgiveness.
