Following The Chosen

Blown away by The Best Opening Shot Ever in The Chosen, Ben and Laura enjoyed all of Season 4 Episode 2's threads converging into a poignant depiction of the power and cost of forgiveness.

Oh, jeepers. This episode ALSO contains "Who do people say I am?" and the Messiah's announcement of building his church upon the rock. So, you know, there's a bit for Laura and Ben to chat about!

This is the end, my friends, of The Chosen's third season. Ben and Laura had mixed reactions to the final display of tested faith but, you know, in a good way. Then there's the old/new significance of a psalm performed. And how about that epic re-enactment of the feeding of the multitude!

Wild speculation abounds about The Chosen off-screen as Laura and Ben get into this round of the disciples' trying to deal. The divisive reaction to Jesus' open invitation fuels an episode of strong set-up to Season 3's finale.

What does classic Australian comedy The Castle (1997) have to do with The Chosen? This episode, as Laura explained. PLUS: Jesus gets proper angry, and Simon and Eden FINALLY talk. Oh, so do Tamar and Mary. That conversation got Ben reflecting on his own guilt and forgiveness.

The one that made Laura AND Ben cry. What we see Jesus do for a shunned woman and dead daughter caused Laura and Ben to tear up. They also loved what is broadcast about Jesus' care and his command.

The best and worst of The Chosen – in one episode.

TV/film reviewers and Chosen fans Laura Bennett and Ben McEachen disagree about the first half of Season 3's Episode 3, Physician Heal Yourself.

Ben was distracted and eye-rolling about some creative choices, such as Jesus playing sports – badly – and sheep called Cain and Abel. But Laura pointed out that such everyday elements helped the "I am the Messiah" impact of the memorable second half.
