Made For This with Jennie Allen

Surrender and Success with The Chosen's Dallas Jenkins


Listen Later

In today's episode, Jennie talks with Dallas Jenkins about his newest project, The Best Christmas Pageant Ever. For Dallas, this film is more than nostalgic entertainment; it’s the fulfillment of a calling. After years of praying for the chance to tell this story, he brings the Christmas message to life, sharing the true meaning of "unto you a child is born." Dallas believes that Christ came for everyone, especially the outsider and the overlooked. 


Dallas also opens up about the challenges of surrendering outcomes to God, especially in a success-driven world. He shares how he’s learned to offer his "five loaves and two fish" and leave the rest in God’s hands, a lesson that has been central to both The Chosen and The Best Christmas Pageant Ever. Through storytelling, Dallas hopes to remove barriers that people often face with faith, presenting Jesus in a way that is both authentic and accessible. Don’t miss The Best Christmas Pageant Ever in theaters on November 8th!
