Transmission video series 2020-2025

Five centuries ago, a group of people took radical steps even if at great cost to themselves. This group, that became known as the early Anabaptists, were perceived as a threat to society. They chose to be rebaptized and that simple act of faith led to persecution, torture, and death. 

We, producers of the Transmission video series, set out to explore what it means to be members of our Anabaptist faith family 500-years later. We chose to give voice to young adults as they grapple with faith and life issues today. We found and documented a sense of hope, resilience, creativity, and determination to be true to what Jesus taught, no matter what the circumstances. The series provides a glimpse into a collective sense of identity, drawing on stories from 18 countries from around the globe.  

The series of five video instalments and study guides in various languages is available for viewing at CommonWord.
