Restored: Stories of Encounter is
a six-part documentary series on individuals who had radical encounters with
Christ and went on to make a real difference in the world. This series provides
vibrant and genuinely human role models for all who desire life in Christ.
Every subject is a moving example of
Christ’s perfect love for the poor, the lost, and the weak. They can inspire
anyone who wants to do something good to
take the leap. All that the people in this series did was let their great love
move them to action.
