The portrayal of Jesus' grace and power deeply moved me. While my heart still mourns, I find peace in scripture and Jesus' sacrifices. 'The Chosen' beautifully depicts Jesus and all characters, and I'm grateful for its role in my healing journey.
I always felt close to God and Jesus, but it was the tragic loss of my daughter, Autumn, that truly tested my faith. For a year, I felt lost and broken. A friend advised me to "surrender" to the Lord. At first, I resisted, feeling I had lost enough. But as I delved deeper into scripture and prayer, I realized my faith was my strength. It helped me heal and reconnect with my soul. Around this time, I started watching 'The Chosen'. The portrayal of Jesus' grace and power deeply moved me. While my heart still mourns, I find peace in scripture and Jesus' sacrifices. 'The Chosen' beautifully depicts Jesus and all characters, and I'm grateful for its role in my healing journey. Thank you for being a part of my story. God Bless.

When I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, my life took a drastic turn. I was put on prednisone, a medication that weakened my immune system. This meant that during the pandemic, I had to isolate myself at home. It was during this challenging period that I discovered The Chosen. It felt like a divine intervention, a beacon of hope in a time of despair. My husband and I found solace in every live stream and episode. It was a source of comfort during a particularly rough season of my life. I've been a Christian since childhood, but The Chosen allowed me to experience Jesus in a new and profound way. It was as if I was falling in love with Him all over again. My heart's desire is for everyone to experience the incredible love and redeeming grace of Jesus. I am immensely grateful for The Chosen, for bringing Jesus closer to us in such a unique way. It's like a picture of Jesus, vivid and real, right in our living room.

I'm a hospital chaplain and, despite my passion for the job, chaplaincy during COVID was heart-wrenching, with people passing away isolated from their families. I felt overwhelmed until, on one Sunday, three individuals recommended 'The Chosen'. I watched the first three episodes that very night and now view one daily. 'The Chosen' brought me hope and a sense of God's love during my darkest hours. I'm profoundly grateful for it. Thank you!

To my surprise, I was instantly hooked. My friends now joke that I could be a marketer for the show, given my newfound passion for it!
I remember hearing some actors from Chosen doing readings on the Hallow app during Christmas. I've always been skeptical about Christian shows and movies, assuming they were cheesy with poor acting. But then, both Netflix and Amazon Prime kept recommending it. So, I decided to give it a shot, just one episode. To my surprise, I was instantly hooked. My friends now joke that I could be a marketer for the show, given my newfound passion for it! I'm currently on my third round of watching it and even participating in a Bible study alongside.

The Chosen opened my eyes to the hurts I caused others and brought me back to my faith with hope and love.
At 68 years old, I've always considered myself a good person, but I never really followed my Catholic faith. When I got engaged to a Jewish man, he insisted that I convert if we were to get married. Tearfully, I agreed and raised our four children in the Jewish faith, feeling like I had betrayed God and turned my back on Jesus. Eventually, the marriage ended and I returned to my faith, but I hadn't been to confession in years. I tried to be better, but my relationship with Jesus felt distant. The movies I had seen about him portrayed him as constantly reverent, which didn't feel realistic. One day, while I was home sick, I decided to watch some TV. The Chosen caught my eye, so I started binge-watching the episodes. The moment I saw Peter drop to his knees, crying out to Jesus, "Depart from me. You don't know what I've done," it hit me like a ton of bricks. It was as if my entire life flashed before my eyes, and I saw every hurt I had caused others through my thoughts, words, and actions. It was a wake-up call like no other. I couldn't get enough of the episodes and I've watched them countless times, always finding a new message each time. I couldn't stop talking about the series either. I started sharing DVD sets of seasons 1, 2, and 3 with places I thought could benefit from them, like our local prison, the veteran's home, a home for victims of domestic abuse, the Methodist outreach center, and even our local library. One of the best moments was when two young men from the Latter Day Saints came to my door to share their beliefs, but I ended up talking about The Chosen instead. They left with the DVDs, and they seemed really excited about it! Now, I'm on my church's Parish Council, and we've started showing an episode of The Chosen once a week, followed by a discussion. I've also made it a habit to set aside time in the morning and at bedtime to talk to God and thank Him for everything He has done for me. I was truly a lost sheep, but I am so grateful for The Chosen. Jonathan Roumie's portrayal of Jesus opened my heart and soul, allowing me to move forward in my faith with hope and love.
