The Chosen T.V. Show, image from press release kit

The COVID19 pandemic is changing all of our lives in some way. I don’t pretend to have it all figured out.

• For me as a teacher, we have switched to e-learning, so I am working hard to figure new ways of presenting lessons and communicating with my students.
• For me as a mom, I now have all three kids at home including my 2 daughters that are normally at college.
• For me personally, I guess I would have to say that I think I am in shock. I really don’t know all of the ways that this is affecting me. I’m just taking it one step at a time. I have felt profound sadness, overwhelming fear, frustration, disappointment, and a host of MANY other emotions.

So where am I going with this blog post?..

I’m recommending a T.V. show!!

Are you surprised? I read somewhere that we all need something to look forward to, and I have really looked forward to watching this show! Each night my family has been watching episodes together.

It is called The Chosen. You can find out more information about this series here.

This is the official trailer from their press kit.

It has really brought the Bible alive for me!

• I love the way they have developed each character, but especially Peter and Nicodemus.

• I see myself in many scenes and I am brought to tears by the miracles, and the way Jesus talks to each individual.

• I find myself re-reading Scripture with new eyes and fresh insight.

I can’t say enough good things. So tonight, gather your family together, pop a little popcorn (or whatever your favorite snack might be), and try this amazing series. It will give you a lot to think about!
