We have great content here at BYUtv, and it surely doesn't hurt to take a second look at some of our programming. Tonight at 9pm ET/7pm MT on BYUtv, you can catch our rebroadcast of The Soul of Kalaupapa: Voices in Exile. It's the amazing true story of the those suffering from Hansen's disease (leprosy) who were forced from their homes to live on a wild, remote Hawaiian colony. Several of the patients still live there. It's a beautiful documentary that is both deeply heartbreaking and incredibly moving.
You can watch the program online as well:
Another one of BYUtv's more popular documentaries is the 5,000 Days Project: Two Brothers.

Warning: Once you start watching this program, it's very hard to stop! It's an incredible story.
And if you're in the mood for history, look no further. Fires of Faith is a three-part documentary series that explores the lives and fates of the brave men and women who fought to bring forth the King James Version of the Holy Bible. Watch the first installment here:
