The Young Messiah Arrives on DVD/BD in July

A powerful and emotional faith-based film about the childhood of Jesus, The Young Messiah comes

to Blu-ray and DVD for public libraries on July 12, 2016 from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment due to Uni's 28 delay policy for these non-profit community centers. Telling the story of the Jesus in a way that communicates to children and families, The Young Messiah is "A remarkable movie" (Steve Isaac and Bob Waliszewski, Focus on the Family). Arriving just in time for Father's Day, the Blu-ray and DVD include exciting deleted scenes, feature commentary with the director and a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the film.

Inspired by scripture and rooted in history, this story imagines a year in the boyhood of Jesus. Remaining true to the character of Jesus revealed in the Bible, The Young Messiah is an inspirational story about the childhood of the Savior for the whole family. When the mystery of Jesus' divinity begins to unfold in His early years, He turns to His parents for answers. But Mary and Joseph, in an effort to protect their child, are afraid to reveal all they know. How do you explain the ways of the world to its Creator? How do you teach the Teacher? How do you help the Savior who came to save you? Follow the young Messiah as He and His family take the extraordinary journey from Egypt to Nazareth and on to Jerusalem – where His true identity and profound destiny are revealed.
