This time we take a look at The Chosen, a series that portrays the life of Jesus as told in the Gospels. We focus on Season 1 which covers the beginning of Jesus’ public ministry and the calling of the first disciples. The show aims to stay close to the biblical accounts, though some details such as timelines, locations, and character backstories, have been adapted or expanded for storytelling purposes. We discuss what the show adds, where it stays faithful, where it may miss the mark, and some of the controversies that surround it.
