About this listen

The ambitious radio series, The Greatest Story Ever Told — based on the book of the same name by Fulton Oursler — came to ABC for Goodyear Tires in the 1940s. With a full orchestra and 16-voice chorus, the series dramatized the life and times of Jesus Christ — "the greatest life ever lived." It was the first radio series to simulate the voice of Christ as a continuing character. The stories quite effectively captured the essence of Oursler's book — a beautifully simple dramatization of Christ's life as set down by four apostles. Captivating audiences around the country, the show aired every Sunday evening for a decade, and this Easter-themed audio edition features three full-cast dramatizations from the program:

• " The Betrayal"

• "The Crucifixion"

• "The Resurrection"
