The programmes are part of the BBC's Year of Beliefs project for 2019, in which they are aiming to bring content about religion and ethics to a wider audience to look at how deeper values shape society.
On Good Friday there will be the first of a two-part programme called Britain's Easter Story where choir masters Gareth Malone and Karen Gibson will tour the UK to discover the narratives behind different Easter traditions and show how music is an important part of the celebration. The second part will air on Easter Sunday.
Songs of Praise In the Holy Land will also feature a young choir of Christians who travel to the Garden of Gethsemane and other Biblical sites for the first time and there'll be Easter Carols from King's.
From Sunday 17th March, a new 8-part series will air with former JLS band member, JB Gill and journalist and presenter Mehreen Baig, who will host Walks of Life, where they go on wanders to find out about modern attitudes towards religion.
Already airing on TV on Fridays at 9pm is Pilgrimage: Road To Rome, the final episode of which will air on Good Friday - where eight celebrities, including Katy Brand, Lesley Joseph, Strictly's Brendan Cole and Greg Rutherford travel to Vatican City and meet the Pope.
The BBC will also play the Pope's Easter message, as well as a live Easter service from St Mary's in Warwick and Songs of Praise In The Holy Land will air on Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday.
Tom McDonald, Head of commissioning, Natural History & Specialist Factual, said: "We are excited to bring viewers a range of programmes to celebrate the Christian calendar's most important date. Easter is a time of thoughtfulness, introspection and also great joy and we will be reflecting that across our titles."
