When Scripture Comes Alive: The Chosen Meets BibleProject

What if your favorite TV show became a catalyst to experiencing Scripture itself? 

‍

Like, imagine someone watching The Chosen. They’re seeing the laughter of the disciples, the unfolding miracles, the weight of Jesus’ words. And now imagine that instead of just closing the app when the episode is over, they step straight into the Bible passages that inspired it all.

‍

That’s exactly what happens when The Chosen meets BibleProject. 

‍

In collaboration with Come and See, the team at BibleProject has created FREE  reading plans for YouVersion that don’t just help you (and others you know) follow along with the show; they help you explore Scripture. Each plan pairs some of your favorite scenes from The Chosen with a devotional piece, an educational video from BibleProject, and reflection questions. 

‍

Why does this matter? Because when you experience Scripture side-by-side with the unfolding storyline of The Chosen, something beautiful happens: you move from inspiration to encounter.

‍

You’re invited to go and see for yourself! 

‍

Plans for Season 1-5 are live on the YouVersion Bible App right now. And they’re completely free and easy to share. 

‍

To learn more about our exciting collaboration with BibleProject—and how you can be praying over it all—check out this conversation I recently had with Mike McDonald, Chief Strategic Relationships Officer at BibleProject. You’ll learn all about the behind-the-scenes making of these reading plans and the impact they’re having around the world. Plus, you’ll hear a little secret: the Bible was always meant to be read in community. 

‍

Here's the full conversation:

‍

Thanks for your mountain-moving prayers, because they are powering this work. We pray these reading plans inspire you, your small group, your family, or that one friend who’s always quoting lines from The Chosen. May you not only read Scripture, but discover how God is speaking uniquely to you as you follow him. Because as Mike puts it in the video above, at the end of the day, this isn’t about a show, an organization, or a movement; it’s about Jesus.

In prayer together,
