“For years we’ve been addressing the unscientific claims and sloppy scholarship of movies, books, and other projects just like this latest pop-science TV special,” said Balsiger. “They’re always highly sensational, make bold claims that play to public hunger for excitement—and when you dig deep into what they’re claiming, their case against the Jesus of the Bible is always full of holes.”

Balsiger noted that while there has been plenty of media attention over the upcoming television program, produced by “Titanic” director James Cameron, no noted archeologists have stepped forward to support the project. “It’s strange that a television producer makes a sensational announcement about the supposed discovery of Christ’s burial site in Israel, yet no one from the Israeli Antiquities Authority corroborates the claim and no Israeli archeologists step forward in support,” said Balsiger. “In fact, many bona fide archaeologists, researchers, and Bible scholars have stepped forward to debunk the claims by these filmmakers.”

In addition to those experts are Balsiger, who has coauthored a book with Charles E. Sellier, “The Case for Christ’s Resurrection” (Bridge-Logos). Filmmakers Balsiger and Sellier, have recently produced two solid programs about the Christ of the Bible, both scheduled for broadcast during the upcoming Easter season. “The Fabric of Time: Secrets of the Universe,” scheduled for broadcast on the i Network (formerly PAX-TV), is a scientific analysis on the world famous Shroud of Turin, thought by many to be the shroud in which Christ was buried—and from which he was miraculously resurrected. “The Case for Christ’s Resurrection,” scheduled for broadcast on the Trinity Broadcasting Network, also looks at the death and resurrection of Christ, but from a more traditional biblical evidences point of view.

“‘The Fabric of Time’ program proves scientifically with highly respected scientists and scholars that the resurrection of Jesus Christ is a scientific fact," said Balsiger. "Consequently, there can be no bones nor anything else of substance pertaining to the so-called body of Jesus Christ in a Jerusalem cave tomb."

“Both of these documentaries are well-researched, thought-provoking, and very compelling to viewers,” explained Balsiger. “And most importantly, neither stoop to the sensational—these are quality programs that will stand up to critical, scientific, and scholarly examination by any peer review group.”
