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.

The Chosen made Jesus and the Bible a lot more relatable to me, and my relationship with God Bible study especially) is so much better for it.
I am a screenwriter and filmmaker by profession. At the start of my career, I attended a screenwriting workshop pioneered by a mentor who is also a Christian. The Chosen (season one at the time) was used as a case study on storytelling peculiarities in comparison to other Bible-adapted film and TV projects. The first thing that struck me was the poster - a photo of Jesus (Jonathan Roumie) smiling. I'm not sure why, but I had never imagined before then that Jesus was someone who smiled. I also hadn't seen anything like that in any of the other Bible-adapted productions I'd watched. I knew Jesus was 100% human on earth, but seeing that photo made me realize I hadn't really understood what it meant. It also made me realize that I had placed God in this cordial place of rulership, and there was a whole other dimension of a relationship that I hadn't come in contact with. All of this from a poster. I was hooked already, even before I saw a single episode. Episode one was the cherry on top, and I've followed every episode and season since then. I think my friends and colleagues are probably tired of hearing me talk about the show.

Watching Chosen, we were moved to tears, filled with hope. If Jesus could heal then, he can certainly heal our boy now.
My husband and I first discovered Chosen on Netflix. My husband, being a new and eager believer, was instantly captivated by its powerful message. We have two children, our four-year-old son Liam, who is non-verbal and autistic, and our three-year-old daughter, Emily. Watching the healing episode in season 3 was a profound experience for us. We were moved to tears, thinking about our son and the miracles that Jesus performed. We found ourselves filled with hope, believing that if Jesus could heal then, he can certainly heal our boy now. We live on a low income and times have been tough, especially with my husband being out of work. But we felt so blessed by the show that we wanted to contribute in whatever small way we could. Thank you for sharing the miracles of Jesus with the world in such a powerful and spirit-inspired way. Your work is truly a blessing. Keep up the great work!

The Chosen has done an exceptional job of presenting a holistic view of Jesus, the only one truly worth following.
As someone who has dedicated their life to studying the Bible and teaching adults for over four decades, I've found that the series, Chosen, truly captures the essence of the Messiah. Every Sunday afternoon, we gather as a church family to watch this series, and the insightful questions it sparks are truly remarkable. This portrayal of Jesus is something that needs to be seen by as many people as possible. In American churches, our preaching has often been skewed, focusing on one aspect of the Savior over others. But we're called to follow Jesus as he is, not a version we've created for ourselves. To do otherwise is simply idolatry. The Chosen has done an exceptional job of presenting a holistic view of Jesus, the only one truly worth following. It's a series that strikes at the heart of what it means to be a follower of Christ, challenging us to see beyond our preconceptions and embrace the full measure of the Messiah.

I always believed in God, though my belief in Jesus was somewhat uncertain. One day, while attending physical therapy for my knee, a woman asked if I had watched "The Chosen." A few weeks later, she brought it up again, and I decided to give it a try. The first episode was a bit slow, but I stuck with it.

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.

Through The Chosen, I found a way to share the authentic Jesus with the world. It's more than a show, it's a movement I'm proud to be part of.
I first stumbled upon Chosen through Facebook ads when they were just beginning to partner up. Intrigued, I decided to invest. By the time I watched Episode 4 of Season 1, my excitement had grown, but I was skeptical about how many people I knew would actually subscribe to watch. However, when Dallas made it free on the app, I was over the moon. I couldn't help but share it with everyone I knew. I made a point of showing the "fish scene" to those I thought might be skeptical. To my surprise, they weren't. I had this one friend who I knew would spread the word faster than wildfire if I told her about it. We were both incredibly moved by the Sermon on the Mount and the Feeding of the Five Thousand. Now, I proudly wear the badge of a top fan and am committed to spreading the word about The Chosen to the world. I don't even need a tax deduction for my contributions, but I appreciate that it's an option. I wish more people would donate, even if it's just a little every month. I firmly believe that this show will lead more and more people to discover the authentic Jesus.
