The videos are also available in Spanish and Portuguese.Biblevideos.ChurchofJesusChrist.org also features a new video montage of the most recent Easter videos. The shareable video compilation, “He is Risen,” is set to original music and emphasizes the Easter message of the Resurrection.
With the update to the website allowing users to send an e-card of each of the previously released videos, individuals can easily share gospel messages.
After announcing the launch of the Bible Videos site in December, President Henry B.

Your faith and the Holy Ghost will create the emotion these world-changing events deserve.”
