Has anyone watched "The Chosen"?
« on: December 13, 2022, 07:01:34 PM »
The Chosen is a three season series on the life of Christ. It isn't so much about the life of Christ, as much as an immersion into the cultural aspects, interactions with the Roman conquerors, and how the established Jewish religion reacted and played into the birth and life of Christ, and gathering of His followers.   The whole experience is very well done, and a lot of people watching (including my wife and me)  say they experience a lot of joyful emotion, and strengthening of faith.  The first two seasons are available on DVD, the third is just being released this fall/winter.

  ..Haven't seen it yet, but have heard many positive reviews.
If you don't want the truth, don't ask me.  If you want something sugar coated...go eat a donut !  (anon)
