While we can't donate much, our shirts have inspired conversations and encouraged others to explore the series.
At 80, I've always felt Christian, but 'The Chosen', recommended by my family, filled a void. My husband and I are captivated, having watched all three seasons multiple times and eagerly await the next. The Round Tables and other extras enrich our understanding, making biblical stories more tangible. Our merchandise from 'The Chosen' store has effortlessly sparked conversations about faith. While we can't donate much, our shirts have inspired conversations and encouraged others to explore the series. Keep up the incredible work!

I may have only brought a scrap of bread and a sardine, but it made me feel incredible to be a part of something so meaningful.
In 2018, I became a widow. The adjustments that come with losing a long-term partner are immense. Throughout it all, I held onto my faith in the Lord and His promises for widows. It was around Christmas time when I stumbled upon the original short episode that premiered before The Chosen was even produced. As I watched it, tears streamed down my face. I was completely emotionally invested in this short film. I couldn't stop watching it, and I started recommending it to everyone I knew. I felt compelled to learn more about the producers and the people behind this incredible project. My heart and spirit told me that I needed to invest in it, not just emotionally, but financially as well. To be honest, I didn't have a lot of money, but I knew it was the right thing to do. I am so grateful that God allowed me to be a part of it from the beginning. I only wish I had been a wealthy widow so I could have done more. But as Dallas always says, "Loaves and fishes!" In my case, I may have only brought a scrap of bread and a sardine, but it still made me feel incredible to be a part of something so meaningful. I continue to recommend the series to everyone I know. Recently, one of my daughters started watching it too. She has now watched the entire available series multiple times. Surprisingly, she has also developed an interest in Middle Eastern cooking because of The Chosen. I never saw that coming, but it's a nice bonus! I want to express my deepest gratitude to Dallas and everyone involved in this project. God's hand is truly all over it.

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 believe that The Chosen is a tool being used by the Holy Spirit to proclaim the Good News of God’s Kingdom to all nations.
In 1976, as a lost young woman, I had a profound encounter with the Holy Spirit and found Jesus. Since then, I've been attuned to His presence. Watching 'The Chosen', I felt that familiar touch of the Spirit, especially when Jesus recognized Mary. I believe that The Chosen is a tool being used by the Holy Spirit to proclaim the Good News of God’s Kingdom to all nations.

I was lost for 40 years, but Jesus found this old lady. He filled me with His love, and now I know He'll be with me always.
What a privilege to join the millions of voices around the world. Let me start by saying that I am not a Christian. I left the church when I was just 14 years old, and now I'm 78. My journey has been long and incredible, so I'll try to keep it brief. For 40 years, I searched for something spiritual. I devoured countless books by amazing teachers, and I had moments of awe and wonder. I studied and practiced, but it was nature that truly spoke to me—the beauty and tranquility of God's creation. However, I still couldn't find a love that felt genuine to me. Something was missing. Then, a couple of years ago, by some undeserved grace, a friend recommended that I watch The Chosen. It was a revelation. The show's messages were more valuable than any diamonds or rubies. It was a feast of love that changed my life. I bought the DVDs for seasons 1, 2, and 3, and every night, I can hardly bring myself to watch anything else. I'm eagerly awaiting season 4. The entire cast is exceptional. Since I have no family, The Chosen family sits with me at the dinner table. Jonathan's portrayal of Jesus is masterful. I feel his love and faith. If I had known this Jesus when I was younger, I doubt I would have ever left the church. Matthew's character resonates with so many of us who have been hurt by not fitting in. I relate to Little James because I also have a broken hip, and I understand the deeper meaning behind why he wasn't healed. As for loving the "bad guys," I can't explain it, but Quintus with his infectious laugh, Atticus with his quiet strength, and Gaius caring for Matthew and befriending Simon—each one is so special. And how could I forget the Zealot? The writers are truly brilliant. They bring Scripture to life in the most incredible way. Their words feel divinely inspired. When I picked up the Bible for the first time after watching The Chosen, it was like the scriptures came alive before my eyes. For 40 years, I wandered spiritually without even realizing I was lost, just like Matthew. But now, Jesus has found me, this old lady. I am overflowing with His love, and I know He is always by my side. When it's my time to go, I trust that He will guide me into the eternal love that He embodies. I must give a special mention to Dallas and his unwavering commitment to answering God's call. I am deeply grateful that he faced his own challenges to bring the love of Christ to the world. I've attached a picture of the Chosen gifts that adorn my altar and greet me every morning during my prayerful writing. They serve as a reminder of the incredible life that has unfolded for me in these later years—all because of my relationship with Jesus. "He won't let me go." I'm currently writing a book about how I encountered Jesus, my master. It's titled A Lantern in the Darkness. This is my legacy. I now have no doubt in His love, and I want to share this with others. We are the lanterns that illuminate the world, and as long as we keep our flames burning bright, darkness cannot prevail.

We had never experienced anything quite like it before. I found The Chosen to be a powerful tool for introducing others to the authentic Jesus of the Bible.
I stumbled upon The Chosen through a social media ad and decided to give the first episode of the first season a shot. I was so moved that I immediately shared it with my husband and everyone we knew. The high-quality production, especially the writing, captivated us from the get-go. We had never experienced anything quite like it before. I found The Chosen to be a powerful tool for introducing others to the authentic Jesus of the Bible. It sparked a desire in many to delve deeper into the Bible and seek Him further. We quickly became die-hard fans, supporting The Chosen through financial contributions and by purchasing merchandise that we proudly wear and gift to others. The ripple effect of our enthusiasm has been remarkable. We've witnessed a surge of excitement and conversations about Jesus and these incredible stories within our circle of friends, at our church (which has even screened The Chosen on the big screen), and in my small group. It's astounding how many doors and opportunities open up when we wear The Chosen merchandise, providing us with a chance to share Jesus with others. We're committed to continuing our support for this project and eagerly anticipate any future endeavors.

It breathes life into the scriptures and gives a whole new depth to my understanding of my Savior, Jesus Christ.
Hello, I'm Kacy, and I'd like to share my journey with you. I've always had this deep-seated desire to make a difference in someone's life, no matter how small. It could be as simple as greeting them with a warm 'good morning' or asking about their day. These seemingly insignificant gestures can have a profound impact on someone's life, or at the very least, brighten their day. It all comes down to having the courage, seizing the opportunity, and most importantly, the willingness to make a difference. I'm a huge fan of The Chosen. It breathes life into the scriptures and gives a whole new depth to my understanding of my Savior, Jesus Christ. I want to express my gratitude to the team behind The Chosen. You're making a significant impact on all of us. Continue to inspire us to come unto Him.
