Explore the life of Jesus as it's represented in the modern film series, The Chosen. Join Rev. Dr. Jonathan Huggins and the exuberant Gabrielle Roes along with host Dale McConkey as we discuss the merits of this cinematic blockbuster within the Christian community. We peel back the layers of film and television portrayals of Jesus to reveal how movies like The Chosen influence our faith and understanding of the scriptures. We also delve into the series' integration of Jewish customs, the artistic balance between imagination and scripture, and the emotional resonance these stories have with audiences today.

And join us as we play "Dale Got It Right or Dale Got It Wrong?" See if Gabrielle and Jon agree with these statements:

• The Chosen is the most Jewish representation of Jesus on film.
• We should be concerned by all the non-biblical content in The Chosen.
• Jesus’ personality in The Chosen is consistent with the way he is portrayed in the Bible.
• The Chosen misses the mark in the manner it gives authority to the Bible.
• We should be concerned by The Chosen’s connection to the Left Behind series.
