Join us as we watch The Chosen Season 4. You do not have to have started from Season 1 to know what is going on! The Chosen is entertaining and thought-provoking, it is a series based on the life of Christ and his disciples. What makes The Chosen unique is the show creators’ approach to the characters of Jesus and the disciples. Jesus and his disciples are down-to-earth, relatable people: Jesus has a believable sense of humor and the disciples are seriously yet lovable flawed. And because this is a multi-episode, multi-season show, the show is able to explore some of the most intriguing stories in the gospels with much more time and care and depth. There is no cost for the event.
