'God's Outlaw - the story of William Tyndale
The Story of William Tyndale - marking the 500th anniversary of his translation of the New Testament into English.
REETH MEMORIAL HALL 7.30 THURSDAY 14th AUGUST - Free admission
God's Outlaw is about international politics, church intrigue, cold-blooded betrayal, and false justice ending in a criminal's death. It is the true story of how William Tyndale became one of the most wanted men in England and all of Europe. Pursued by King Henry VIII, Lord Chancellor Sir Thomas More, and the Pope's personal legate Cardinal Wolsey, Tyndale darted across Europe to avoid capture - always pushing to complete the task that obsessed him.
The task was translating the Bible (now the world’s bestseller) into English and publishing it for his fellow countrymen - Englishmen who lived in a country where the Bible was outlawed.
Today William Tyndale is renowned as the father of the English Bible, and is recognized as one of the major leaders of the English Reformation. But the story of how he lived and died as God's Outlaw will keep you on the edge of your seats.
This multi award-winning film stars Keith Barron (Duty Free, Coronation Street, DCI Banks), Roger Rees (Cheers) and Bernard Archard (Emmerdale, Doctor Who).
“A gripping tale, beautifully told” (Daily Mail); “Admirably convincing” (Sunday Times)
Running time 1 hour 35 minutes - followed by refreshments
