We have ruku smart tv. Am I understanding the movie of Jesus. Can only be watched on the internet? So that means others can’t watch it without the net? I looked on the TBN channel line up. It doesn’t show the movie being on. Help understand this. If it can only be watched from the net. So if you have cable, satellite tv, you can’t watch it?
Good news! The musical stage production “Jesus” is coming back to TBN for one night only, Cindy. Details here: https://www.christianactivities.com/jesus-returns-to-tv-one-night-only-may-13/
