“The Chosen” is a fresh look at the Gospels for those who have been reading the stories for years or for those who are just curious about who Jesus is and was. It is a television series about the life of Christ, as witnessed through the eyes of those He impacted.
“The Chosen” stays faithful to the Gospels and at the same time tells us a story that is in between the lines of scripture. This series brings to life those people that are mentioned in the Bible, using the historical context of life at the time of Jesus. The series does not contradict scripture, but instead puts life around it so that we as viewers can imagine, “What was life like with Jesus?” It really could have been this way.
Season 2 starts just as Christ and the first few apostles were leaving for Samaria and ends just at the beginning of his famous Sermon on the Mount speech that has gone on to be one of the centerpieces of his ministry. Throughout the season, the show addresses multiple major events in the life of Christ, from a retelling of the parable of the lost sheep to depicting Christ casting out the demon Legion from a possessed man.
Each week we will watch the video together and have discussion afterwards. There is no book to purchase for this study.
