Angel Studios 12+

I’ve loved this show from the very beginning and every “extra.” The interpretation of Jesus is how I’ve always felt him in my heart and mind’s eye. Many of the poor App ratings are because they can’t get the new shows fast enough or with captions for the deaf. Since they release each show as soon as it is produced (and Season 2 was just completed) while more languages are being translated all the time, with captioning being planned but not available yet, I see this as a huge recommendation for the show and more like it! As far as “Pay it Forward” goes, Dallas makes it clear the decision to make the show FREE was to make it available to as many people as possible without regard to income. Since it costs a lot of money to produce a quality show (more now thanks to Covid), those who want to and can afford to donate are the ones who manage this show financially available to everyone. (Thank you!) Since I am disabled and financially unable to contribute financially, I rely on them as well. Even so, sharing the show with others IS something I can do! *I have found it takes an average of three “prompts” after TELLING someone about the show before they have actually WATCHED the show, so a sincere, “What do you think about The Chosen?!” or, “Which character on The Chosen do you identify with most?” can be a great reminder in their busy lives. Once they watch it, YOU won’t be telling THEM about it because it will be the other way around.

After watching every episode I can I was so disappointed it became a nightly ritual for me to watch. I feel it has in many ways helped me on my journey with the lord, and my relationship as well, I use to think it was no use furthering my relationship cause I felt unworthy and undeserving of his love because of everything he has done for all us especially for me, but this show has given me scripture and knowledge of where to find my lord especially when I need him most. So I thank each and everyone of you who pay it forward cause I have watched this show and I have helped with what I can and hopefully continue to contribute as much as I can I look at it as offering for the lord so we all may bring our lost brother or sister out there closer to God, I will pray everyday for the one left out of the 99 may we find you and bring you home whoever you are, and remember god loves you unconditionally without a shadow of a doubt no matter what it’s never to late to come to the lord no matter what you have done you will be forgiven, and if you do start your journey with the lord remember you work your own salvation out with the lord he will guide you where you need to be and it doesn’t happen overnight so don’t get discouraged and always stay persistent even when you forget stay persistent start your new day and repent daily even if you feel unworthy he will help you. Thanks Dallas for all you do I appreciate your good works in the lord

I watched the first season marathon style while stuck at home after my son’s surgery. He would wander in the living room and end up staying a while, asking questions, laughing, and (here’s the kicker) not looking at his phone! The last 2 episodes he stayed for the entirety of the episodes. He asked questions that could only be answered by starting over - which we did! This gave us a wonderful opportunity to not just share the gospel story, but explore the humanity of Jesus, discuss the history of the time, and answer all of his questions about the “flash backs” to the Old Testament. My son doesn’t sit through ANY show - even major motion pictures unless we are at a movie theater. The fact that this series had him fully engaged to the point of asking questions and talking about it with me after is HUGE!! I am struck by how any license taken with the backstories or the characters personalities never veered from the biblical script - it just filled in the blank. I was expecting some deviation as we’ve seen so many times in Bible movies and mini series of the past. You only ENHANCED the biblical script and didn’t change it in any way. I am downloading the app to watch season 2. I am 100% behind you and this movement, and I am diligently praying God uses this to mount a spiritual revolution calling people to Christ and deepening the faith of believers everywhere. God bless you and the work of your hands!!
