Jonathan Roumie is a true disciple of Christ ! He let the Holy Spirit work through him . It is so inspiring ! Thank you dear, sweet Lord for coming back on earth via the Chosen .🙏🙏 The world is just starting to realize how much you love every single human being on this earth. God bless everyone in the Chosen crew ! ✝💙
The scene between Jesus and Nicodemus is heartwrenching and so was the scene where Nicodemus was hiding behind the wall while Jesus was saying, "He came so close." Each of the episodes is so heartwarming.
It’s in his eyes! The tenderness, the true understanding, the openness in those eyes is profound. And the way he really listens to the questions, and the depth and sincerity of his answers is inspiring. I truly think he was ordained to play Jesus.
Shalom Jonathan, Dallas and every single member of Your cast. Jonathan, I am so in agreement that this project is uniquely skewed toward The Holy Spirit controlling every aspect of this project. And once again, other than the all time No. 1 movie "The Passion of The Christ - The Chosen holistically rates right up there. Proving all the more that when YAH Himself orchestrates a project, it will - 1stly be uniquely positioned to succeed, 2ndly, be unstoppable, 3rdly, will go forth and accomplish that which YAH has intended! Moreover, You Jonathan and every single individual were handpicked by Yeshua Himself and what honor that is. This just in: all your vignettes done prior to doing The Chosen was training ground leading up to this most epic role played as Yeshua - blows the mind - in a great way of course. YAH Bless each and everyone of yall. Ameiyn and Shalom Maranatha!
I feel I have fallen MORE in love with Jesus after watching this series. Praise God for the lives of this actors, directors, crew, and everyone who worked for this series. Bless you all 😍😍😍
Me too! When he calls Mary’s name, from episode 1, instant tears! Touched my heart so deeply. I love seeing the disciples, how they interact with each other, with Jesus, and just how they traveled following Jesus. Most of all, how different each disciple is! We can all relate to all or at least one. Jesus chose us! Wow! ❤️🙏🏼❤️🎉
I love Jonathan's portrayal of Jesus. It is sincere, sweet, relatable, anointed, pure and very funny. Your smile is also very warm in the episodes. Keep allowing the Lord to use you. All glory be unto His name.
I love the Chosen , I have been recommending it to everyone I know. What I love more than anything is the glance of Jesus (Jonathan ) I am sure that was the way Jesus eyes were ,full of love and compassion . To see Jesus as a human ,His relationship with Mary his mother hugging her ,you can see the love between them. Congratulations and thank you.
Loved hearing how Jonathan described his own deeper transformation 3/4 months prior to filming. Also appreciate how the interviewer allows him to talk and answer questions fully. Praise the Lord for The Chosen! 🙏🙌❤️
The way that Johathan calls Mary ....and says ''Thus sayeth the LORD that created you, and He who formed you, FEAR NOT.....'' and when he holds her, is the most beautiful scene!!! lt makes me want to hug JESUS, and cry _........JUST LIKE_ in that scene! l LOVE JESUS and need Him like that _as we ALL do!_ STUNNING work Jonathan!!
Thank you for this great interview. I believe that God has had His hand in every aspect of The Chosen, especially in the writing and casting. Because Jonathan surrenders himself and asks the Holy Spirit to fill Him and portray the Lord Jesus through him, we can see the transformation on the screen. It is beautiful.
Thank you Jonathan Roumie! I've really enjoyed you sharing whats on your heart this morning with a genuine commitment to portraying Jesus Christ Our Lord in such a down to earth way. Like your sister lol when I pray. I asked God to help me not to see your face too. God knows my heart that I want to worship him in spirit and in truth. Thanks for showing us who Jesus was really like! So I remembered Jacob when his son's were digging the well during Season 1 , I don't need a face now to worship our invisible God who became man to save us. I appreciate all the laughs and tears that heal my soul! Thanks! l ❤ the Chosen Series!
I find it reassuring to see how different you are out of character! I have no wish to add to your problems, and actually we have to recognise the part script writers, directors and advisors play anyway; but you have been enabled to play the best depiction of our Lord I have ever seen. I am 74, been a Christian 50+ years and remember how wooden the earlier attempts to show the Gospels were. Accurate in their dialogue, but unable to communicate the humanity of characters and Jesus Himself. This is why I am so blessed by "The Chosen." Having lived in Israel I love the accents, the sets and the humanity of God in the flesh. Thank you Jonathan. May the Lord keep your feet on the ground and on the path as a disciple!
I think Jonathan that your portrayal of the Messiah....makes those around you at the time & age more comfortable to be with you because you showed a playful approachable side to the Son of God....helped them all to relax ,have a joyful time while still realizing that the Christ has truly come & is right there with them .... sleeping on the ground, dancing , & laughing!!! All things God has put in us as humans....make sense? Hope so?! You are the exact right choice for this role....TY ❤️💥🙏
Exactly! The "back stories", make the familiar Biblical stories so relatable and believable. The scripting is fabulous and key to why it is so easy to share this program to everyone. The Chosen helps us understand the why and how so that the what...the main purpose of the scriptural text is believable. Thank you!
So Beautiful!! thank you so muchgir your Love for Jesus..and thank you for being such a Blessing in portraying Jesus ! The Chosen is helping us all to go deeper with Jesus...to see Him in His humanity but knowing He is fully God and fully man..Jesus is our Hero, the most incredible Wonderful loving person in the Universe. and yes, I know Jesus has a sense of humor. Ee can sense Him laughing with us over certain things in our personal experiences. He is an Awesome Savior, God, Friend, Brother and..everything to us..Thank you!! You are bringing Jesus to life for so many..🙏🙏💖
The Chosen is such a great series! Jonathan plays Jesus with so much grace, love and joy. He feels so real 💖. Thank you for this interview. I enjoyed it a lot.
When I watch the Chosen and see Jesus, I think they did an awesome job casting Jonathan. I have no problems praying to Christ because I don't try to see his face when I talk to him. Jesus was noted to have a common face, but the actor does portray him beautifully through the looks in his eyes, which are filled with so much compassion and love. That part of the actors face I relate to Jesus. Well done brother.
Yeshua and the Father are Echad. They are one! Praying to Father, Christ, Ruach is all the same. Seek His face and not just his hand. This show is amazing!
@@brooklynj.4276 "Ruach" is Hebrew for "Spirit", in this case, the Holy Spirit. "Echad" means "one" in Hebrew. Some Christians have an... interesting infatuation with Hebrew words, especially when referring to Jesus ("Yeshua") from what I see.
I just found this interview. Jonathan, you and Dallas have done something that I have never experienced. You brought humanity to Christ. It makes Him so relatable to me. Instead of a God that is difficult to imagine surrounded by humans it enforces the part of Him that is human
The Holy Spirit is in the atmosphere all around Johnathan......if we all look closely I believe we can see Jesus in Johnathan's eyes, his face is speaking to us all .....YOUR FAITH IS BEAUTIFUL ❤️
Tbh I have never seen Jonathan each time I watch The Chosen. I have always seen The Son of God. Each time I watch I wish to see more of his scenes though I know the show is not all about Christ alone but it so up and personal watching him, it is so like the One who saved me (Jesus), I was never there but I can feel it through my everyday walk with Him. And you call tell that his performance is so full of The Holly Spirit
I too love the refreshingly off-guard humor and wit as well as relatable human emotion that is portrayed in Christ here. A couple of moments that come to mind is when he wakes up in the morning to see the returning curious little girl standing over him, sun in his eyes and says, "You couldn't give me 30 more minutes eh?" LOL.. Or when he puts on a big cloak and says, "Not too shabby." Am really enjoying this.
Jonathan you did great job playing Jesus on the chosen I often cry watching your interactions because I binge watching. God bless you and all the cast. I can't wait watching season 2.
I love watching the Chosen, I’ve watched season one about 20 times. I just can’t get enough of it! I think that’s testament of just how good it is. Amazing portrayal of Jesus and the disciples characters. Great job!!✝️🙏🔥
I wish to compliment Shane Morris on the excellent manner in which he interviewed Jonathan, and posed questions with discernment and impacting input. Well done Shane! 👏
I would love to hear the creative/writing team discuss the development of scenes and characters. Because when I watch the interpretation I feel it's perfect - it's right on the mark!
In Philippians when telling of the incarnation it says Jesus emptied himself in order to take on being human. I've heard Jonathan talk about emptying himself in order to allow God's Spirit to guide him in his portrayal of Jesus on The Chosen. I love your portrayal of our Lord, Jonathan. Thank you for all you've been through and trained for in order to so beautifully portray Jesus.
Hello Jonathan, I always say the eyes are the windows to the soul. I was lost in yours As I was pulled into The Chosen so quickly. I think God is pleased with you portraying Jesus. I pray many blessing keep coming your way Johnathan!! 🙏💖
Jonathan I appreciate your portrayal of Jesus and yes the Holy Spirit is pouring over all of you and your show. One of the things I most love about the show is the simplicity. I am so tired of fearmongers and unnecessary things that vex my soul. When I watch this I feel at peace, and remember just because you have more money don't make it complicated, Keep it simple as you have been doing for that is truly what everyone is seeking right now just the purity and simplicity of the Love and understanding of Christ that you and all your fellow actors and Dallas bring to the show, thank you God-bless you all!
What I love about The Chosen Jesus is how human you make him. When I watched the dialogue between you and nicodemus in the church’s Easter service 2015 it was just rehearsed lines - but this show is as if we are in the room with you two. You have brought the Bible to life it’s just not words. I KNOW Dallas is correct the Holy Spirit has this!! Thank you
Very tough assignment - great acting and portrayal - props to the actor and his director. Really enjoying the characterization across all characters esp JC.
This has been a wonderful series. This has brought the Bible to life. What a blessing for all to see this series. I pray many will find Jesus due to this show.
Wow....I‘m just repeating...“Thank You Jesus!“ This is God‘s work, the Holy Spirit is moving powerfully, praise be to God! The Chosen confirms my own personal mystical experience of Jesus as humble, smilling, humorous, gentle, kind and truly human...fully God, fully man. This series helps me and my family fall in love with the Holy Scriptures and Jesus more deeply. I can enter contemplation of Jesus more easily during the Holy Mass and the prayer of the Holy Rosary with the help of these beautiful episodes. Thank you for allowing us to get to know Jonathan, God bless you! Greetings in Christ, Angèle. Jesus I trust in You! Maranatha, Come Lord Jesus! 🙏🏻🕊🔥
I cry a lot when watching this series it has been the best tears That ever came from my eyes…to feel the Love and emotions within your heart …💕 sometimes I rewatch it again and still feel it all over again. This has certainly strengthened my faith and walk with Jesus… Your compassion is so genuine..This is why he chose you 😊💕
Seeing all the characters of the bible being portrayed as relatable humans really impacts scripture reading, biblical conversations, and gives a refreshing motivation to read the bible with fresh eyes. Supporting The Chosen during this time and watching how it has been able to spread into every country of the world is SO amazing. It makes you feel as though you are a (miniscule) part of something God is doing worldwide. To know that lives are being re-dedicated and touched is super exciting. It's also exciting that EVERYONE can have a part in supporting and spreading this amazing project.
Jonathan.... u did an amazing job of portraying Jesus in the chosen ...may God bless and keep you . I love the show and I was able to share it today on my mail route when a lady asked me about my chosen t shirt !
Awww Johnathan! After watching The Chosen I always see Jesus in you. Please be always like this. My deepest prayer is " may the Lord Jesus Christ create more people like you" and May Christ's endless love be always with you both!👍👍👍👍
The Best.. Greatest YESHUAH. Figure ever.. Jonathan... You are Great Actor.. I'm so Touched.. Thank you Very Much. YAHWEH will Bless you.. ♥ Blessings and Love to you and Yours XX
Jonathan, your portrayal of Jesus is the face I see when I pray to Jesus. It is real; believable. You have been a blessing to me in my journey to believe and understand how someone like God can exist. I know Jesus lived as human first. He knows us. Thank you and God bless you, Jonathan.
The Chosen is the BEST show on television. I look forward to Season 3. A I continue to pray for the entire cast & crew to be inspired by God as they move forward.
I too, have been thinking a lot about Lazarus and his sisters lately. I’m very much looking forward to how Dallas and the writers explore Jesus’s friendships with these siblings.
I have been watching for months and there remains one scene that has changed my prayers. The healing of the leper. Please don't turn away from me I won't I know what you can do and I submit myself to you if you are willing I am willing That is a prayer. That is a prayer that had become mine, most simple and sincere and so reassuring that God does hear me and when I pray to him, he does not turn away. When I am in need and I submit to His divine plan for me, he is willing. It is like a fire burning in my heart, that scene.
My friend looks and sounds like Shane Morris I'm so surprised. 🤔 The Chosen is always my companion especially during the pandemic lockdown. Looking forward to see the second season 🙏💕
Jonathan your sister said what l say .you come right in the pray time very often and that is a great help to hive more life and faith in Jesus and to it is a bonus So thank you Jonathan's sister. It's a good thing and zGod knows it !!!
I believe the chosen is being done very real and elegantly. I simply adore The Chosen and all involved. 💓 Please Keep it coming.🙏 I'm already crying thinking about Christ's crucifixion 😔❣️
I believe you are touching the hearts and souls of unbelievers NOW when Dallas placed the “Chosen” information and ability to actually view free, powerful, experiences of Jesus and the disciples through the mini series. Your wonderful, dedication to mimic god’s love for us has touched me and blessed me with a new opportunity of conversion and rebirth. The Chosen can be nothing but a fabulous rebirth experience. Thank you for your commitment to this project but also your faith. God chose you to assist in this human biographical story telling. ✝️
What a good interview... Shane asked Jonathan such enlightening questions on the series... Jonathan has been pre-destined by God early in his life culminating to this series. Such a beautiful performance but I believe what makes it special is that Jonathan really is into Jesus in real life.
This is such a compelling dialogue about The Chosen, that i want others to hear it. As I’ve forwarded the trailers and clips I will forward this as well. Thank you.
Beautiful! Ooo, I think Jesus wept regarding Lazarus because of being so touched by how the father worked through him. Perhaps as we weep when we catch those moments God has worked through us. Lovely work Jonathan and great interview Shane!👏🏼🙏🏻💫💓🕊
I love this interview. Love the show, the cast and the fans. Jonathan you portray Jesus just as I know him in my heart. Keep on being humble and loving Him like you do. It's inspirational and encouraging to us all.
God bless you and I hope you continue with the new series season of the Chosen . Fans are waiting to see and hear you on next shows. . A fan USA Arizona peace and Joy. 😁🙏🇺🇲🏜️🥤
Brilliant interview between two highly spiritual and intelligent Christian men. I can appreciate the quandary of people praying to God and subconsciously "seeing" Jonathan's face, this "show" packs such a wallop. But for myself, for what it's worth, this series has regularly caused my heart to soar out to Jesus in fervent praise and worship and an intense longing for Him, but I have never "seen" Jonathan's face while I was doing so. And that's NOT a criticism of Jonathan's very appealing appearance as Jesus. His performance is the most moving and all-round attractive interpretation I have ever seen and that is coming from someone who became a Christian partly through watching Robert Powell back in the 1970s. Brother Roumie, you're doing well. I pray you may continue to do so by God's grace
Jonathan Roumie as Jesus is perhaps the best draw of The Chosen. I found myself looking at other Jesus films which are more faithful to the actual Bible narratives with much greater appreciation of them. They all have made the Bible come alive, some of them far more effectively than The Chosen. The Chosen has merely used TH-cam far more craftily than the others.
Jonathan, I know you're not Jesus, but you are my favorite actor to portray Jesus!!! You nailed it
(pardon the pun).
Jonathan Roumie is a true disciple of Christ ! He let the Holy Spirit work through him . It is so inspiring ! Thank you dear, sweet Lord for coming back on earth via the Chosen .🙏🙏 The world is just starting to realize how much you love every single human being on this earth. God bless everyone in the Chosen crew ! ✝💙
The scene between Jesus and Nicodemus is heartwrenching and so was the scene where Nicodemus was hiding behind the wall while Jesus was saying, "He came so close." Each of the episodes is so heartwarming.
My favorite scene so far- Jesus & Nico on the roof.
My favorite scene, I think!
so true. besides Jesus calling " Mathew, son of Alphaeus , follow me! "
@@gingerray2188 i
Love the Nicodemus story, heart wrenching as you say.
"He" chose you, Jonathan Roumie, to play as Jesus, and "He" chose me to watch the series.
What a beautiful comment. Thank you for my first heartwarming cry of the new year.
It’s in his eyes! The tenderness, the true understanding, the openness in those eyes is profound. And the way he really listens to the questions, and the depth and sincerity of his answers is inspiring. I truly think he was ordained to play Jesus.
I love his portrayal of Jesus. His demeanor is so sweet and humble. I just love it! Thank you Jonathan. ❤️
Jonathan you did a wonderful job as Jesus, powerful, understated , human, so powerful, you had me crying brother!!!!
I agree.
Same here ❤️💥🙏
Me too and also laughing!
Me too.
The only time I feel real peace watching TV is when watching The Chosen. It is the best!
Shalom Jonathan, Dallas and every single member of Your cast. Jonathan, I am so in agreement that this project is uniquely skewed toward The Holy Spirit controlling every aspect of this project. And once again, other than the all time No. 1 movie "The Passion of The Christ - The Chosen holistically rates right up there. Proving all the more that when YAH Himself orchestrates a project, it will - 1stly be uniquely positioned to succeed, 2ndly, be unstoppable, 3rdly, will go forth and accomplish that which YAH has intended! Moreover, You Jonathan and every single individual were handpicked by Yeshua Himself and what honor that is. This just in: all your vignettes done prior to doing The Chosen was training ground leading up to this most epic role played as Yeshua - blows the mind - in a great way of course. YAH Bless each and everyone of yall. Ameiyn and Shalom Maranatha!
I love how Jesus treats his mother in this series. It warms my heart.
I feel I have fallen MORE in love with Jesus after watching this series. Praise God for the lives of this actors, directors, crew, and everyone who worked for this series. Bless you all 😍😍😍
I see Jesus through this as more compassionate , loving and caring .
I have fallen more in love with him too.
Just make sure it's Jesus you fall in love with and not Jonathan!!!! He's married. I think all of it has been good.
@@creidy3343 Surely ;)
Me too! When he calls Mary’s name, from episode 1, instant tears! Touched my heart so deeply.
I love seeing the disciples, how they interact with each other, with Jesus, and just how they traveled following Jesus. Most of all, how different each disciple is! We can all relate to all or at least one. Jesus chose us! Wow! ❤️🙏🏼❤️🎉
Jonathan’s version of Christ is the best.
I love his version but also Jim Caviezels
The character's face just radiates peace and love.
I love Jonathan's portrayal of Jesus. It is sincere, sweet, relatable, anointed, pure and very funny. Your smile is also very warm in the episodes. Keep allowing the Lord to use you. All glory be unto His name.
I love the Chosen , I have been recommending it to everyone I know.

I cried when He healed the leper , such compassion, came across so deeply moving.
Absolutely great performance playing Jesus .. very humble but powerful in words ..
Thank you for this great interview. I believe that God has had His hand in every aspect of The Chosen, especially in the writing and casting.

The scene of the Samaritan woman at the well was simply outstanding. I have enjoyed the entire series.
Tim McVicker yep but it ended there and now I can’t wait to see the rest 😅
I cried at the scene with Nicodemas
That scene and that episode was literally heaven opening up

Yeshua and the Father are Echad. They are one! Praying to Father, Christ, Ruach is all the same. Seek His face and not just his hand. This show is amazing!
Why praying to Jesus if only the father is God?
Tim Parr what is “Ruach” and “Echad”
@Ναζωραῖος See Jesus opinion
@@brooklynj.4276 "Ruach" is Hebrew for "Spirit", in this case, the Holy Spirit. "Echad" means "one" in Hebrew. Some Christians have an... interesting infatuation with Hebrew words, especially when referring to Jesus ("Yeshua") from what I see.
This is what the world needs&how the Holy Spirit is moving bringing this to pass!
I just found this interview. Jonathan, you and Dallas have done something that I have never experienced. You brought humanity to Christ. It makes Him so relatable to me. Instead of a God that is difficult to imagine surrounded by humans it enforces the part of Him that is human

The Chosen is Ahmazing!!!!!! I loved the fact that this Jesus wasn’t wimpy. I can’t wait until the next series.
Wherever this actor plays, his job is brilliant. I don't know him yet, but he seems to be a gentle and kind man. I am a big fan
Please WATCH THE CHOSEN, A story about Jesus
@@YongamaLove I watched over and over, can't wait for season 2 :)
In Philippians when telling of the incarnation it says Jesus emptied himself in order to take on being human. I've heard Jonathan talk about emptying himself in order to allow God's Spirit to guide him in his portrayal of Jesus on The Chosen. I love your portrayal of our Lord, Jonathan. Thank you for all you've been through and trained for in order to so beautifully portray Jesus.
From the writing, to the casting and the acting, EVERYTHING about The Chosen is special. Thank you!
He has been anointed for this.
Hello Jonathan, I always say the eyes are the windows to the soul. I was lost in yours As I was pulled into The Chosen so quickly. I think God is pleased with you portraying Jesus. I pray many blessing keep coming your way Johnathan!! 🙏💖
I think my favorite of all is the woman at the well
Jonathan I appreciate your portrayal of Jesus and yes the Holy Spirit is pouring over all of you and your show.
One of the things I most love about the show is the simplicity. I am so tired of fearmongers and unnecessary things that vex my soul.

I cry a lot when watching this series it has been the best tears That ever came from my eyes…to feel the Love and emotions within your heart …💕 sometimes I rewatch it again and still feel it all over again. This has certainly strengthened my faith and walk with Jesus… Your compassion is so genuine..This is why he chose you 😊💕

Supporting The Chosen during this time and watching how it has been able to spread into every country of the world is SO amazing. It makes you feel as though you are a (miniscule) part of something God is doing worldwide. To know that lives are being re-dedicated and touched is super exciting. It's also exciting that EVERYONE can have a part in supporting and spreading this amazing project.
Jonathan's words are definitely guided by the Holy Spirit in this interview and show he is being used by God in his life.

He did a amazing job he may not understand it but he has helped a lot of people draw closer to the real Jesus
Love your mission as an artist, Jonathan. You always put your heart in it.
A perfect casting of Jesus. Brilliant. I’d also like to add that this interview was EXCELLENT. The host is an absolute natural. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
I agree. They were both so articulate while also being down to earth. Loved it!
Jonathan, your portrayal of Jesus is the face I see when I pray to Jesus. It is real; believable. You have been a blessing to me in my journey to believe and understand how someone like God can exist. I know Jesus lived as human first. He knows us. Thank you and God bless you, Jonathan.
The Chosen is the BEST show on television. I look forward to Season 3. A
I continue to pray for the entire cast & crew to be inspired by God as they move forward.
They all played their parts very well.
I'm so happy to have that clarified on Mary Magdalene's character in the Chosen!

Absolutely beautiful, Jonathan❤️❤️❤️
Cannot wait for more 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️✝️✝️✝️
I too, have been thinking a lot about Lazarus and his sisters lately. I’m very much looking forward to how Dallas and the writers explore Jesus’s friendships with these siblings.
As a man you are doing a great job portraying GOD(JESUS).
There is no reason why this show made me cry number of times!
Amazing presentation of The Gospel....Human; yet DIVINE !!!
Whoever casted Jesus was right on point! Jesus has such warmth and joy just Iike I've imagined Him to be!💗
I just picked this up at Wal-Mart on DVD. Thank you for making it available. The best series I have ever seen by far. Maranatha!
I have been watching for months and there remains one scene that has changed my prayers. The healing of the leper.
Please don't turn away from me
I won't
I know what you can do and I submit myself to you if you are willing
I am willing
That is a prayer. That is a prayer that had become mine, most simple and sincere and so reassuring that God does hear me and when I pray to him, he does not turn away. When I am in need and I submit to His divine plan for me, he is willing.
It is like a fire burning in my heart, that scene.
This series is such a Blessing!! I balled like a baby!! All the characters are amazing!! Jonathan as Jesus, he was made for his role!
Wonderful to have Jonathan portray Jesus. As a man of faith, Catholic and originally Greek Orthodox, perfect choice.

Let us Pay it Forward so Season 2 can start filming and airing hopefully before Christmas
Jonathan your a fabulously human Jesus…and love the seasons!!!
Not unlike you Johnathan, this series brings to me a feeling of being closer to Christ. Thank you.
The scenes are so relatable to every one's life, that one can't help falling in love with Jesus, hunger to love Jesus, just cannot stop !!!
My friend looks and sounds like Shane Morris I'm so surprised. 🤔 The Chosen is always my companion especially during the pandemic lockdown. Looking forward to see the second season 🙏💕
Best portrayal of Jesus I've ever seen. Amazing job 🙌
faith is the substance of things not seen.Things hoped for.
He shows us Jesus in looks and behaviors until we see Him in person. Stay faithful Jonathon and I know you will . ♥️🙏🏽🦋
Jonathan your sister said what l say .you come right in the pray time very often and that is a great help to hive more life and faith in Jesus and to it is a bonus
So thank you Jonathan's sister.
It's a good thing and zGod knows it !!!
I believe the chosen is being done very real and elegantly. I simply adore The Chosen and all involved. 💓 Please Keep it coming.🙏 I'm already crying thinking about Christ's crucifixion 😔❣️
I believe you are touching the hearts and souls of unbelievers NOW when Dallas placed the “Chosen” information and ability to actually view free, powerful, experiences of Jesus and the disciples through the mini series.
Your wonderful, dedication to mimic god’s love for us has touched me and blessed me with a new opportunity of conversion and rebirth. The Chosen can be nothing but a fabulous rebirth experience. Thank you for your commitment to this project but also your faith. God chose you to assist in this human biographical story telling. ✝️
What a good interview... Shane asked Jonathan such enlightening questions on the series... Jonathan has been pre-destined by God early in his life culminating to this series. Such a beautiful performance but I believe what makes it special is that Jonathan really is into Jesus in real life.
How pleasant it is to watch two incredible intelligent guys talking! Very good questions, very good answers. Thank you!
This is such a compelling dialogue about The Chosen, that i want others to hear it. As I’ve forwarded the trailers and clips I will forward this as well. Thank you.
Beautiful! Ooo, I think Jesus wept regarding Lazarus because of being so touched by how the father worked through him. Perhaps as we weep when we catch those moments God has worked through us. Lovely work Jonathan and great interview Shane!👏🏼🙏🏻💫💓🕊
I love this interview. Love the show, the cast and the fans. Jonathan you portray Jesus just as I know him in my heart. Keep on being humble and loving Him like you do. It's inspirational and encouraging to us all.
I have definitely felt the Holy Spirit watching The Chosen ❤️
God bless you and I hope you continue with the new series season of the Chosen . Fans are waiting to see and hear you on next shows. . A fan USA Arizona peace and Joy. 😁🙏🇺🇲🏜️🥤
Your voice on Halo reading the Beatitudes in Matthew, gets me to sleep every night. Thank you so much and God bless you.
Brilliant interview between two highly spiritual and intelligent Christian men. I can appreciate the quandary of people praying to God and subconsciously "seeing" Jonathan's face, this "show" packs such a wallop. But for myself, for what it's worth, this series has regularly caused my heart to soar out to Jesus in fervent praise and worship and an intense longing for Him, but I have never "seen" Jonathan's face while I was doing so. And that's NOT a criticism of Jonathan's very appealing appearance as Jesus. His performance is the most moving and all-round attractive interpretation I have ever seen and that is coming from someone who became a Christian partly through watching Robert Powell back in the 1970s. Brother Roumie, you're doing well. I pray you may continue to do so by God's grace
Jonathan Roumie as Jesus is perhaps the best draw of The Chosen. I found myself looking at other Jesus films which are more faithful to the actual Bible narratives with much greater appreciation of them. They all have made the Bible come alive, some of them far more effectively than The Chosen. The Chosen has merely used TH-cam far more craftily than the others.
I am glad God delivers.
