Angel Studios Reviews

I watched the first season marathon style while stuck at home after my son’s surgery. He would wander in the living room and end up staying a while, asking questions, laughing, and (here’s the kicker) not looking at his phone! The last 2 episodes he stayed for the entirety of the episodes. He asked questions that could only be answered by starting over - which we did! This gave us a wonderful opportunity to not just share the gospel story, but explore the humanity of Jesus, discuss the history of the time, and answer all of his questions about the “flash backs” to the Old Testament. My son doesn’t sit through ANY show - even major motion pictures unless we are at a movie theater. The fact that this series had him fully engaged to the point of asking questions and talking about it with me after is HUGE!! I am struck by how any license taken with the backstories or the characters personalities never veered from the biblical script - it just filled in the blank. I was expecting some deviation as we’ve seen so many times in Bible movies and mini series of the past. You only ENHANCED the biblical script and didn’t change it in any way. I am downloading AngelStudios to watch season 2. I am 100% behind you and this movement, and I am diligently praying God uses this to mount a spiritual revolution calling people to Christ and deepening the faith of believers everywhere. God bless you and the work of your hands!!

I love this show so much. It’s changed my life. My relationship with God has become so strong. Now, I continually want to please him. He is my Light and my Salvation. Thank you to Dallas Jenkins for listening to the call and following the leading of the Holy Spirit in this project. It has brought so many of us closer to our God, and renewed our focus on the Almighty. Reading my Bible is more enjoyable now, and I can understand things in a way I didn’t before. This show is great at bringing out the humanity and struggles of the disciples, as well as that of Yeshua/Jesus… being that He was God, but in a very human body. Everyone is so relatable and I see my own life in some of the stories, like Mary of Magdala, Nathanial, and even Nicodemus in some ways. There isn’t an episode that doesn’t choke me up, and it’s the same no matter how many times I watch. I’ve watched this series about 6 or 7 times now, and I will continue to watch when I need to put my focus back on God and less on the problems of life. What I love most about this show is that it’s the most Messianic version of Jesus that there has ever been. Jesus was a Jew and so many forget that, especially those that have made Jesus films in the past. This is the most middle eastern depiction of Jesus and His disciples that had ever been made. I appreciate how much time and effort that Dallas and His crew put in to get this all right. Thank you all again for your work. It’s been amazing!!!

God is using this right now to help free me from 12 years of addiction and anxiety and depression. I used to see the face of my abuser when I tried to pray or read the Bible it made keeping my faith feel impossible, so I gave up I thought God hated me and I went on my prodigal journey. Somehow this portrayal of Jesus resonates so deeply with my heart that the more I watch the show the more the face of this portrayal of Jesus is slowly erasing the face of my abuser I don’t know how to describe this and it must sound absolutely crazy to people. But I’ve been able to start praying again because of it I’m able and hungry to read my Bible each day now because of it. To everyone who has played and is playing a part in creating this show I just want to say from the bottom of my heart, thank you for saying Yes to the Holy Spirit everyday that you’ve written and prepped and worked on this show. Season 2 episode 4 is a lightning rod from the Holy Spirit DIRECTLY to my heart and soul. I watch it any day I feel tempted to go back to the addiction and I’m about to join a a group that I know has had great success with sobriety. This is a review as well as a testimony. To the doubters I say, if you’re here reading this, I believe there’s a purpose, pray and ask Jesus to reveal Himself to you. To the fellow believers please pray for me. I just got the 40 day devotional and I NEED spiritual food to stay in Gods grace. Thank you for your prayers.

This show is absolutely amazing!! The writers, director, cast, crew & spiritual advisers are a gift to all of us. My sister has dyslexia & had a difficult time reading the Bible…I sent her the information on the The Chosen app…because of the wonderful way the show is written, she binge watched & is now understanding the Bible, Jesus & His disciples in a way she didn’t think was possible. I am so grateful, my sister’s husband passed away in 2020 & she is a recovering alcoholic…needless to say she has been walking through a storm for a while….can’t thank all of you enough🙏🏻. I believe the Lord’s hand is definitely involved in The Chosen. He always gives us just what we need & in His timing, which is impeccable. I believe He hand picked all the people involved in this TV series. I love, respect & appreciate The Lord’s diversity🙏🏻. It seems, from interviews I have seen with Dallas Jenkins & cast members, that everyone involved with this TV series is grateful to be a part of it & they work together so well, regardless of where they stand on their spiritual beliefs or lack there of…..I love it! Too bad all people in the world couldn’t do that…how sweet would that be!! I will continue to pray, as are millions of people everywhere, for everyone involved in the series, personally & professionally….may the series go through seven seasons & beyond, according to the Lord’s will🙏🏻. God bless you all 🙏🏻 Many thanks & gratitude 🙏🏻

There are just a few of us but that’s the way Jesus started gathering His disciples. We start off with The Chosen…discuss our reactions. Then we conclude with Ray Vander Laan’s series,That The World May Know. “Life And Ministry of The Messiah”. Ray Vander Laan is an historian and Christian teacher who takes groups of people to the Holy Land, Egypt,etc. I had hoped the lessons would be coordinated by so that the location of the tour and happenings would match where The Chosen is at in the Bible. Well God had this all planned before me…and it is the way I hoped for. We have one person who has visited The Holy Land and can give us her experiences there. She has some good insights and stories that help us to be there with her. This past Friday one of the ladies shared her grieving and depression at the death of her husband three years ago. I had just met a lady, Michelle, whose son, Ben, died from a brain tumor a year ago. I prayed with here and was able to relate that to The Chosen and Living Water episode with Ray Vander Laan (his series is endorsed by Focus On The Family. All of this is bringing me such joy. I need your prayers to keep in mind that I am merely His messenger and not a preacher. I hope to ask two friend who are part of this to make sure I am humbled. As I watch this first series over several times and especially with others, it is becoming more powerful. Thank you for making this possible.

At first I didn’t feel anything could compare to first season. I was so wrecked in an awesome way by several of the stories. Mary meeting Jesus, Nicodemus especially the night he met snd talked to Him.
The second season took an adjustment at first. I’ve watched each season fully 8-9 times. Never get sick of it. Always finding something new and fresh to glean. I had trouble with Mary going back into her old life. Seeing her drinking and gambling etc. I couldn’t watch that Episode again for weeks. I felt she was so delivered she would never go back and scripture doesn’t say she did. But like Jesus said to her , if you can lose what you got that fast how good was it. Did you think you’d never sin again? lol I don’t fully under the animosity between all of disciples and Matthew. Andrew is my least lovable character. He’s a nervous wreck. I hope he chills out next season. My favorite episodes are when Jesus said to James and John, Fire, you want to call down fire from heaven snd burn them up??? Great episode! Also I love the last episode with Matthew when he speaks the Beatitudes. So profound and meaningful and deep. First class produced but very authentic and genuine acting . Amazing sets too. Love your work. I want more and more. Best presentation of the Bible I’ve seen . I love Quintus as well and his interview with Jesus. Love all of you. Cindy Hoesly

. I lost my husband of 44 years to lung cancer last October. But He is so free and healed and with Jesus. The long months alone would have been horrific apart from my kids and grandkids and THE CHOSEN. I can’t even tell you how many times I have watched over and over and over again each episode. They have brought me peace in my sorrow fed my spirit and soul entrenched in my being the truth of the Word the simplest lost sheep and how to pray. I have fought praying sitting down and praying never could find the right place until one day I heard for the umteemth time Jesus say go in your room and close the door and talk your father in secret. My prayer life has changed my whole life has changed. My little neighborhood Bible Study is watching the first season at my house. We are going to see Episode 7 my favorite of the first season next week. Oh you guys thank you for hearing the Holy Spirit and doing this incredible work. I love each of you with my whole heart and I pray your whole life completely changed doing this mighty work for Jesus about His Kingdom. #8 is my favorite of season 2 yes snd Matthew is my favorite and so is Precious Nicodemus. I love you all forever. Love in Jesus Debbie really You all are my favorite especially you Dallas and your sweet family. When you do your work the Holy Spirit transforms you. Jesus is so Holy!

This review is based upon The Chosen’s first season only.
At first I was skeptical about whether a credible and faithful production of the ministry and life of Jesus Christ was possible. I had doubts and questions. Will Jesus’ character speak only the “red letter” dialogue from the Bible? Would this production be a reinterpretation or embellishment of biblical truths, and if so, by watching it will I be guilty of giving credence and support to false teaching? How can this production fill several seasons worth of episodes about Jesus Christ’s relatively short ministry and life without embellishing?
I was pleasantly surprised when my doubts and questions were either answered or quelled fairly quickly. I love the idea of a Christian show using crowd funding to get Christian content out to the public and this production seems to be faithful to the Bible by using knowledge of the past culture(s) of Jesus’ day and locality to flesh out the shows characters, their daily lives, and their actions. So far, the show does not seem to take liberties with Jesus character and sticks to the biblical stories. The characters are plausible and interesting and I am enjoying the shows immensely.
While I will watch The Chosen series keeping a critical eye, I will continue to watch, and for now I will continue to encourage and my friends to watch also.

I’ve seen this multiple times over and I’ve been an advocate for it for months and months. It feels like pulling teeth to get people to watch it... but once they do! Support this project. Help others see Jesus through the eyes of those that followed Him. It’s not dry material, it’s incredibly deep and the character development is miraculous but not unbelievable. Director and creator Dallas Jenkins and team have done an incredible job at showing how God truly makes us new as He comes to us and as we get to know who He is. I’ve cried, I’ve laughed, I’ve been convicted, I’ve fallen in love, I’ve suffered, I’ve questioned, and through each episode, Jesus shines as an equalizer that turns everything for the good of those who love Him and are called (“Chosen”) for his purpose.

As an app, this is definitely unique. Since when do you find yourself not having to pay a subscription, wait through advertisements, create an account that requires your firstborn, or jump through a variety of multiple hoops? It gets cumbersome for people that haven’t seen it to convince them to download it. People act like it’s such a hassle. But it’s one not a single person I have convinced has regretted. And in all reality, it’s not any harder than downloading redundant apps like “Google.” Not to dog Alphabet/Google or anything...

I was in a pretty bad place in my life, struggling with alcohol, and steering my marriage in the wrong direction. Then I found the Chosen! After hearing about it for several weeks I finally decided to sit down and start watching. I was immediately BLOWN AWAY!! There was this overwhelming since of comfort and peace, and you all have done an amazing job at helping people, including me understand story’s in the Bible. It makes it super easy to see it played out. Rather than listening to it or reading it. My entire family is hooked, from me all the way down to my 4 year old son. I’m almost ashamed to say, but for a long time Jesus has had a hold of me but I resisted him. Now I am proud to say that I have a hold of him, and I’ll never let go. And the chosen has played a part in helping make that commitment. So I will end by saying thank you to the chosen crew and all those who support it. And if anyone out there has a stubborn friend in need like I was, and you can’t drag them to church. Invite them over and turn on the chosen. You never know what Jesus could be doing in their heart to turn them in the right direction. The chosen just might loosen the steering wheel. It certainly did for me. Thank all of you so much my family and I love you all, and GOD BLESS!

Although I really like Jonathan Roumie’s portrayal of Jesus, I can’t help but think that the real Jesus is even better and even more likeable and compassionate than Jonathan. But it helps me envision this like never before and has renewed my faith and love for God! The rest of the cast is great too, and the production writers and crew have really creatively interwoven plausible back stories that give depth to each character. Although I’ve only been watching this for 3 weeks now, I am a super fan and to cross check everything I’m already on a study of a third gospel. This has also really opened a door for me to share Christ with others. I’ve already purchased 10 tickets to the Christmas Theatre showing and am trusting the Lord to fill those seats. Can’t wait for Season 3 and am so thankful that AngelStudios offers this to all. If you ever need a Conservatory-trained pianist, I’m in to volunteer! 😊 Thank you and glory to God! Praying for writers to continue to seek guidance and wisdom from the Lord, for the actors to continue to be inspired and inspiring and for the production crew to continue to pursue excellence in putting this all together. Lord, keep the enemy away and pave the way for your gospel message to reach people around the world through this series and through personal interaction.

I really love AngelStudios because it is a tv show on Jesus. But also is free and you can donate that way it will continue to be free BUT you DO NOT have to have a monthly or yearly subscription, and when I watch the show, my heart is so happy and yes I do want to donate not because am force to, I am free to donate how ever amount I want, there for I look at my budget and I can give what I can to support this show. Director, you have done amazing, and thank you for letting us know “watch the show like any other show” because I was prepared to say “wow, this is not in the Bible 😂” and yea all the verse and what Jesus preach is in the Bible, but you have done awesome T giving every character light, we don’t know exact what they did or say in their every day life and you… you come and give them what possible could had and say. Simon OMG Talking to love his character he makes me laugh “Simon” “yes master😊” (talking to “suns of thunder” 😅😅😅 wow this show is amazing. Thank you again. Director Dallas God has bless you. But please please just I pray that you continue in a good path and not let the Money get you greedy, sometimes we fall when something is going great. You have done awesome, as long as your heart stays how it is, we the people who support you will continue.

We think it’s been the best version so far of a Jesus story we’ve ever seen. Most movie versions have to try to cram the life of Jesus into less than two hours. To do that, they must either essentially read one of the four gospels verbatim and try to act it out, read selections of the four gospels combined into one story, or extract only one portion of the gospel story to focus on. While these other efforts are valuable, the gospel story covers three-and-a-half years of Jesus’ life, not to mention the useful references to the old testament stories that bring proper context to his ministry. That takes time. It takes creative backstory and side/parallel narratives. We’re really enjoying the length of time and attention to storyline that the creators of this series have taken. Things flow easily and naturally. Storylines fit together both logically and emotionally. Each episode gives enough attention to the characters to develop them. It is truly immersive, and we recommend it to anyone who wants to get to know Jesus, and to anyone who wants a tool to introduce others to Jesus. We hope and pray that this effective method and attention to detail are maintained until the end of the whole series! We love what they’ve done, and what they’re doing.

To say that The Chosen has made my life better is an understatement. The depictions of Christ and His apostles make me want to be a better person and bring to life an easy example to follow. I read the Bible now, and the crazy thing? I enjoy it! As a former Catholic grade school student I was sorely lacking in true bible knowledge and familiarity. So I’m grateful for the boost up. I’m quite excited every time I recognize actual scripture in the show (which by the way, is very often). It brings to me a sense of pride which I interpret to be as a motion toward a more genuine closeness to God and to Jesus. AngelStudios itself makes access to the show and all of its residual effects just a click away on a device I’m already using (far too often for my own good with this being a near single exception). So by all means download AngelStudios . Use it. Use it frequently. Binge the seasons then binge them again. By the time you watch them a third time you’ll begin to fully absorb all that they contain. And like me, you just may become a better version of yourself for the effort. And to Dallas and the entire Chosen team, thank you so much. I am eternally grateful to have all of you as a part of my daily life. I’m looking forward to to season three. So, hurry!!

Entertainment is NOT a word that I have heard before when speaking of biblical teaching, but this show is very entertaining in that it presents the challenges faced by Jesus and his disciples in real life situations during the period they lived in. Educational is often heard when speaking about biblical teaching but it is most often dull and has to use voiceovers and language that is often misunderstood (since it was used by a culture from two thousand years ago). The Chosen uses contemporary language and By doing so it is easy to understand what Jesus meant by portraying the words in realistic social situations. Moreover, the disciples and the entourage of followers have become real to me as I learn about the personalities and struggles they each faced. I have watched the series more than once and by doing so I have begun to understand the true meaning of loving my neighbor as myself. Finally, each miracle that Jesus does in the series brings forth a hope that each of us can do good in some small way and God will turn it into something amazing. Watch, be entertained, learn, get to know who the disciples really were, and let God’s wisdom and hope take over your own life. Be blessed!

My husband and I have been pastors for 25 years. We first decided to watch The Chosen to be able to give an informed opinion about it in case people asked. By the end of the first episode I was sobbing. I then proceeded to binge watch both seasons. I don’t think there has been an episode where I haven’t been moved to tears at one point or another. Our teenagers drug their feet about watching it with us, but once they started they were sold. I love how it brings these people that I have read about for so many years to life. They were real people just like us,and it is wonderful to see them have issues similar to mine in their walk with Christ. All of the acting is top notch…so believable. The casting is spot on. I can sense the Spirit of the Lord all over this project. Jonathan Roumie is doing an amazing job portraying Jesus with so much compassion and gentleness and yet also lots of strength. I pray for protection all the time for the cast and crew. I really believe the hand of God is on this show. Thank you for helping me..a woman who has walked with Jesus for 50 years now (since the age of 4), to go deeper in my relationship with Him and to gain fresh perspective on these stories that are so precious to me. God bless all of you!

Can’t believe I just found out about this show today. I’ve already watched episodes 1-7 and about to watch episode 8. Hey go hard or go home. & we aren’t supposed to leave home right now 😂.. but I can’t express how much this show moved me in just one day. The healing of Mary Magdalene was so moving. I was raised in church. I know all the stories. But to see some of them acted out through the eyes of someone like Mary ... really puts it in perspective. Possessed to the point she was declared unable to be saved by man. & they are calling her Lilith. When Jesus said “Mary” for the first time I was shook. Then he healed her. 😭😭 I’ve been praying for a long time that God would help me learn to understand the love of him and Jesus because I am very physical. I can’t see him. I know he’s there. But how can I love something I can’t see? Watching these stories depicted on screen by the INCREDIBLE acting crew, shows how loving and giving Jesus really is. & that all God wants us to do is follow him. I can’t wait to see more!!!!! I wish there were ten seasons to binge 😭 I cry every episode. What a perfect time for this show to start really surfacing too.. these are trying times. The world needs the healer.

So I was out playing outside with my brother and my dad comes out and says guys I want you to come see this is a Bible show and I heard about it and it’s really cool ! So me and my brother went inside and we started to watch episode one by one and on the third episode right when it was Jesus loves the little children I realize that it was an app I thought you had to buy it on TV but I realized it was an app so my dad got it for me and I really enjoyed it it’s like one of my favorite shows now even though I’ve seen all the episodes it’s just so amazing I watch it every time and I’m pleased every time I watch it and every time I watch it I ask my question to myself am I learning some thing and then I know I am because I now know that Jesus talk to Nicodemus and the woman at the well that was a really good one and it was super awesome too ! but my favorite episode of all was probably Jesus loves the little children I love Abby and all her friends and Jesus teaching them all about how much he loves them because that brought me closer to the Lord and I know I’m even more Closer with the Lord than I was before now so please get AngelStudios it’s really amazing and it moved my heart closer to God than it’s ever been in my entire life !!!!

Oh I am so blessed by this series! Blessed to tears, many times! I grew up watching more Bible movies and stories than I can count, and this is now my favorite of them all. Even watching the whole first season twice, I look forward to watching it again before long and am on the edge of my seat in anticipation for season 2! What matters to me most when watching Bible accounts, is: does the depiction of Jesus show authenticity, love in his eyes, tenderness and compassion? In this series not only do I see that every scene he's in, but he portrays a calm confidence that is neither cocky nor insecure, and that is a very necessary attribute. Also it reveals his humor and genuine understanding as he meets each and every person right where they're at and connects with them! I also appreciate the time and care that directors and writers took to capture the real humanity of each of the disciples, in their varied and relatable struggles. Thank you Chosen team, from the bottom of my heart for passionately putting this together! I will continue to pray that this production will radically touch the hearts of believers and not-yet-believers alike! That they may come to realize more than before the truth of the love of Jesus more deeply and fully!

The Chosen has captured the heart of Christianity—which is the heart of God with the heart for God. Brilliantly written, encompassing believable backstories to historical characters, the viewer travels along on the individuals journey of faith. Again this journey of discovery of who Christ is and what his word says and means puts skin on the bones of Christianity . One would be remiss not to make mention of the acting Jesus is brilliantly done demonstrating the best of humanity but even lesser characters ticks or backstories are so compelling, you can’t help but have favorites. Even the villains are both believable and recognizable and the fact that Jesus chose less than perfect men accurately portrays the scriptures. We are also great full fir the production side of the coin as recreating the period to scale would be costly especially during a pandemic but that too is above average and at times brilliantly done. Lastly the music has been outstanding and insights into the making of the series both entertaining and informative. Well done good and faithful servants. You are certainly leaving everything on the canvas. We thank God for the love letter He is writing through you and pray revival will be it’s result. Blessings will come on all who view the Chosen.

I have to say, it has always been compelling to see depictions, through film, of Jesus's life. However, I have never seen a production that poured themselves so creatively and faithfully into the heart between the letters on the pages of the Gospel.

The Chosen has already blown me away with their nuanced character developments and clever ways they have utilized portraying the true character of Jesus. They have been able to color rich backgrounds and relationships while staying true to the word of God. I can't even make it through an episode without crying, praying, or usually both.

The director gave a short intro to one of the episodes while wearing a hoodie that said, "Binge Jesus." I couldn't sum it up better than that (and i want one of those t-shirts). You will be craving more of this magnificent show; more Jesus. I seriously pray that they end up doing the whole bible. Watch this show!

I have watched episodes 1-6 so far, and really love the actors and the characters they play! I am a very visual person and love seeing so many things from The Bible come to life! Yet, this is nothing like any of the Bible portrayals seen in the past! I’ve also watched several episodes several times along with my family, and caught new things I hadn’t noticed or picked up on before! This is just really good, and even members of my family who really didn’t want to watch “anything religious” actually asked me if we could watch more episodes! I was taken back, because I never would have expected this person to ask to see more, but was more than happy to watch more with them! There is something really different about this, and I really can’t wait to see more! Thank you to everyone making The Chosen!!!!

OK, it is easy for me to point out all the little things in this series which are not taken directly from the Biblical account. Sometimes things like that annoy me. For whatever reason. For this series they did NOT. In fact, they did what they are intended to do: make watching this more engaging, enjoyable, and thought-provoking. To see some of the things I have had to imagine in my mind with my eyes does well up emotions for me when I watch the stories unfold.

The acting is excellent. There are some non-verbals which are done well. The writing is creative, but doesn’t take away from the central messages of the stories. I think they bring to life the tensions that must have been present in that day, both cultural and political.

This is worth your time. I don’t binge watch ANYTHING, but I binged the 1st season.

The Chosen is a television series, projected to be produced for up to eight seasons. It is a show about the life and work of Jesus Christ, the title referring to people who follow Him.

It is produced and supported by people who believe that Jesus is the Son of God, and the Lord and Savior of the world. It is devout, but also funny at times, and very moving. It is also a beautiful production, well acted, written, directed and edited: very worthwhile television.

At this writing, Season One is available on AngelStudios; eight full episodes which are free of charge. It is free because thousands of people paid for it; those people want you to watch it. We believe you will be moved to increased faith in Jesus as we were--and we are praying for you. May the Lord bless us all in our walk through this life.

There have been a lot of decent and encouraging films and tv shows about the Bible and the gospel over the years (the Bible series on Netflix comes to mind). But never before have I ever seen Jesus and the people of the Bible portrayed in such a believable and authentic way. The acting of course is top notch but the dialogue and interactions between the characters feels so natural and relatable you just can’t help but see yourself in each and everyone of them. The development of all the characters was well though out too and their vulnerabilities as human beings (even Jesus himself) was shown in a very touching way. This series deserves to be on TV because it is that good but for the sake of preserving the most important story ever I am glad it is not.🙏🏾

If you have yet to watch the “tv” show on AngelStudios called The Chosen, you are missing out on not just one of, but the best show I have ever seen.

The acting, story, and production quality feels like I’m watching an HBO show. It’s like Game of Thrones, except take away the language and the nudity and the scenes are stories found in the gospels. It’s not your typical Hallmark quality, feel good, just another Christian film that refuses to push the envelope. This feels real. The real hallmark of a quality show is one that makes you forget you are watching actors perform a script on a stage.

In others words, two thumbs up! Highly recommended! I encourage you to watch and see. Thank you

This is truly amazing! The first ever app allowing people around the world to watch the first ever multi-episode and multi-seasonal show about Christ, through the eyes of the people who knew Him. AngelStudios allows people to watch from around the world but it also allows everyone to participate in helping people around the world see The Chosen free by Paying It Forward! Pay it forward and you get an email showing you who you helped see The Chosen! Amazing my “Pay it Forward” helped people in 15 different Countries!! Thank you for this global phenomenon! Spreading the word of God to others, a true blessing! So thankful to be apart of The Chosen!!

This is very close to how I have imagined it would have been like being one of Jesus’ friends while living during the time when He was in the flesh here on Earth. The writing, cinematography and editing are superb. All episodes feature faithful and Biblically accurate interpretations of scripture, as well as historical and cultural accuracy. You get to experience familiar Gospel stories unfolding with an unusual depth, creativity and freshness, through the eyes of the people who knew and loved Him. This is not a typical low budget cheesy Christian film that we cringe when we watch. This is really GOOD.

I have been forwarding “The Chosen” app to everyone I know - it’s like witnessing! I have attended church and been in full-time ministry almost my entire life, and I’m 61 years old. But this series has caused me to return to my first love and frankly, has helped me see Jesus in a new, refreshing but solidly biblical way. There were times when I found myself unexpectedly sobbing. I haven’t been this moved since “The Passion of the Christ”.
Thank you for having the vision, faith and courage to pursue the production of this amazing and realistic portrayal of Christ with such cinematic excellence. May God continue to bless you in this endeavor.

I have been a believer for over 40 years and have a Theology Degree from a 4-year Bible College. I have NEVER enjoyed any of the movies of Jesus I have seen and actually stopped watching them out of disappointment with the portrayal of Jesus. Maybe I would have related to the Jesus in The Passion if I had the strength to watch it. It was too painful for me to watch. But I am elated with The Chosen series!!! The portrayal of Jesus is so beautiful and appropriate. I am full of 40 years of thankfulness!!! I appreciate the character build up and the story tying the Bible stories we are familiar with together in an interesting and plausible way. Thank you and I am anxiously looking forward to more seasons!!!

Love this amazing app that let’s you see the story of Jesus through the words of the Scriptures as well as through the imagined, but plausible eyes of those who were around Him. Every imagined dialogue or deed has indeed been testified by someone before, so it gives you “real people’s” reactions to Jesus. The end effect makes you go back to read the Bible yourself! A great outcome! Even better, it’s free to download and watch, paid for by those who have genuinely been touched by Jesus, healed, and want to share that chance with someone else... we’re paying forward to give others the chance to meet the Jesus of the Bible.

AngelStudios is easy to use and works well, with clear picture and sound. Nice menus and pageflow. Extremely user-friendly!

The show itself is one of the most surprising faith-based series I’ve ever seen. The stories are compelling, the characters are rich and nuanced, and the production value is extremely high. No cheese here and you don’t have to be religious to dig it. Sure the faith-friendly audience will find it extremely appealing, but it’s as good as any Netflix or streaming hit show out there while turning the genre on its head. Quality storytelling and grounded performances. Well worth checking out!

I grew up in the church, and through the lens of felt boards and “The Passion” I was given some possible idea of what the Jesus I read about in the Bible may have been like. These episodes are completely different. They portray Jesus in a genuine and intimate way, and the stories and background both direct accounts and imagined, cling tightly to the Gospel. They amplify the story of Jesus, pointing the watcher back to Him as the messiah in every scene. I love that these are the moving pictures that my kids will see in their heads as they read the Bible for themselves.

I’m so excited to see that you have an app. The first four episodes of season one of The Chosen are absolutely incredible! I can’t recommend it highly enough! AngelStudios runs smoothly and makes it really simple to access the episodes and watch them. I’m excited to try AirPlaying to my TV soon. This is a super simple way to watch it on the go now though. Now I just need to be patient and wait for the next four episodes to come out later this year. Thanks for making this series and God Bless!

This is Lectio Divina in action. It is a fresh look at the stories from the Gospels we are familiar with, but filled in and out with context we are not familiar with. The Gospel message doesn’t change. But between the text of Scripture there are a million ways the story might be told. Each of us brings a unique story to the table. The Chosen gives one of the ways it may have been, which helps you come closer to Christ. Hands down the best Christ movie or video I have seen. I can not recommend it enough.
