H20: The Molecule that Made Us is a landmark, three-part
series that tells the human story through our relationship to water. We find out how our success is intimately connected to
our control of the molecule, but that the growth of our civilizations has also created a dangerous dependence on a precious
resource. One that may be about to run out.

Fires of Faith
EASTER SUNDAY MORNING,
APRIL 12 11AM
If the martyrs who brought the King James
Bible into existence could still talk to us to-
day, they would most certainly tell the tales
of international politics, intrigue, subversion,
bloodshed, fire, and the runaway libido
of King Henry VIII that were the backdrop
of its creation. These stories, along with a
modern, scholarly perspective of the 16th
century book, are presented in BYUtv’s
Fires of Faith: The Coming Forth of The
King James Bible, a series of films which
celebrate the 400th anniversary of one of
the most enduring pieces of writing in the
history of humanity.
