"The Chosen" is a planned 7-season television drama on the life of Jesus Christ and his disciples. It tells the greatest story ever told with imaginative backstories and interpersonal conflicts. This is the first of three sequential podcasts on the series.

"The Chosen" is cinematic art, not unlike the paintings of the Renaissance or Reformation, but a contemporary media in which human creators make judgments and vest themselves and their ideas in the work. In this they are able to fulfill the Cultural Mandate of Gen 1: 27-28. Whether they do this wisely, with concern for accuracy re the Scripture, and with proper motives is for the viewer to evaluate.

"The Chosen," as the creators note, is not the Bible nor a substitute for the Bible. For more Christian commentary, check my website at rexmrogers.com.
