We are so blessed to have Archbishop Smith

I love the idea of mentor couples. I believe the couples will help each other. By helping new couples the more experienced couples marriage will be strengthened. I love the idea of being connected to the parish through other couples.

Whenever any religious men talk about marriage they need to also that there are situations that a woman's life can be in danger if partner is mad or violent DV. So balance it out with being too heavenly and not having one's feet in reality. Be great if marriages all worked out but that just is not real life. Moses asked for Divorce in O/T. Yes, remember that Adam and Eve fell into sin, so we are not perfect.

Great interview. The Holy Spirit gave Simon the knowledge of who Jesus is. That is why he was named Peter the rock. The Chosen is the best Christian show that I have ever seen. I have come closer to God through this show. God bless each person that is in the show and crew. Great acting.

How do you attain salvation?

With 40 days for life currently on, would like to see podcast on abortion and parishes to assemble the troops to hit the pavement.

Wow so good, more people should see this 🙌

What ever is convenient at a particular place and time The Revalation through History doctrine allows teaching to change without any uncomfortable issues with passed religious leaders. One moment the Vatican undertakes capital punishment - 1840s was the last and the next you don't have excommunicate the President of France in 1970s. We can or can not accept medical termination of pregnancy - that is a vexed issue. We have the don't ask don't tell about marrying divorced parishioners. In the Cold War Western nuclear deterrence is a necessary evil, then we don't like USN nuclear submarines being called the Body of Christ. IVF emerges so we need a policy on that. We can have married priests then we can't. That the majority of parishioners wouldn't know a Trinity if they fell over it. The parishioners don't even know the Bible has 80 or 81 books if we include Enoch. And we can just change the interpretation of the inconvenient bits of the Bible ... The first line saying In [a] beginning is best avoided. Who knows what Bishops will teach in any given week - doesn't matter as we parishioners just ignore what they say.

Thank you from Calgary.

Very interesting Temple scene in Ep 4 (or 5?) ... dynamic, violent, unapologetic ... great direction, set design and acting ...

I do not believe Christ resurrected Lazarus. Resurrection is eternal. Lazarus was called back from the dead. He later died. But Christ is the first fruits of the Resurrection. Not Lazurus.

I believe that the Saviour is teaching Peter and the other disciples that the rock is the revelaton of who Chrst is.

I believe that the Saviour is teaching Peter and the other disciples that the rock is the revelaton of who Chrst is.

the bible roundtable after each episode includes a Rabbi who explained that Jews in the 1st century understood that when we die the soul hangs around for 3 days by the 4th day there would be no doubt that Lazarus would be dead - further sealing the miracle of raising from the dead not waking him from sleep or a mistaken death he could wake from

Very good point, Archbishop Smith, about both the Apostles and Jesus being "the Chosen ones," going back and forth. Thank you.

One reason Christ doesn't rush to Lazarus is because He's that far away (three days journey i believe) that He wouldn't have arrived before Lazurus's death anyway.

The problem I have is they deviate from the Bible enough to confuse people who don’t read it. I had people say. I didn’t know Veronica was the Lady that hemorrhaged for seven years. I said that’s because the Bible doesn’t say that. I didn’t know that Mary gave birth to other Children. That’s because there are no words for relatives. In Hebrew and Aramaic they all were called brothers and sisters. Mary remained a virgin. The men said to be the brothers of JESUS, were named as Son’s of others, in the other gospels. Mother Mary was given over to John’s care at the cross, because She had no other Children. I say, stay away from the confusion. There are movies Like The Gospel of John, that fallow the Bible word for word.

It's so lame how so-called Catholics are obsessed with this show. It's so bad. It is 100% Protestant. Why would Catholics use Proteatant religious fiction for evangelization? I couldn't watch any further after we saw an episode in which Peter and his wife were talking about starting a family. That is 100% secular Protestant mi diet about marriage and family. My wife and I laughed so hard after that scene and turned it off. Peter and his wife would not have discussed like 21st century decadent Americans about when to start a family. Not having children was a curse then. I am surprised they made it a month without his wife being pregnant. The satanic Islamic hordes are better on this issue than modern Catholics. So lame Catholics watch this tripe

In the Chosen, when the Lord changed water into wine, why did they have Jesus remove everyone from the room? This is not in the Scriptures and has no value, only if they are trying to create doubt in the actual miracle that took place. There was no actual benefit to the story by having everyone leave when He performed the miracle.

Judas chose Jesus but Jesus called the other apostles.

As Peter said, If we leave, where would we go?

To Jesus....through Mary.

I wish that The Chosen includes The Annunciation with Saint Gabriel Arcángel announcing the that She was full of Grace and was Chosen since The Beginning to be The Mother of Christ! Then The Inmaculate Conception, then Her eternal Virginity. Also her Assumption and her being co- redemptrix. Who does God love more than His Mother? ♥️🙏♥️

No, Catholics should not be watching The Chosen. It is not a good representation of Catholicism.

As a conservative protestant, I'm upset when Catholics do such a better job of understanding Jesus and our salvation than Catholics.

Oh. My Gosh! This Priest is more worried about spoiler alerts rather than the lies of this show! Dallas Jenkins said on video that all seasons DO NOT contain or follow Scripture! He also said that he doesn't mind being called a blasphemer! He claims that they want to portray THE REAL JESUS. Really? How is the REAL Jesus to be portrayed by MORMONS?! This entire production is MORMON MADE! Yhey dont believe that Jesus is the Son of God! They believe thst eventually they will beckme Gods themselves! Read ppl, dig, you sre being deceived with the false portraya. Also...Follow the $ money ppl. You are being lied to! Satan is so sly. I absolutely denounce this show. It's demon made.

Enjoyed this interview. Thankyou. Have passed it on. ❤️🙏🏻

Love that the bishop is wearing The Chosen hoodie!

Jonathan Roomie has an interesting story about his last $20!

Yes there will be 7 Seasons of The Chosen ❤

The 3 days is a Jewish tradition that says that it takes three days for the soul to completely leave the body. Lazarus had to be really dead for the full effect of the resurrection in the Jewish context. Jesus himself was three days in the grave before he was resurrected! It’s important not to lose tract of the Jewishness of Jesus in context.

Isaiah 26:4 … for the Lord is the eternal Rock.

But the Lord is the mighty rock where I hide. Psalm 94:22 ; 2Sam22:2;

Ye have not chosen me but I have chosen you and ordained you ….john 15:16

I think it has to do with the sanctification process we all have to go through in order to become that precise instrument in the hands of our God.

Judas was introduced at the end of Season 2 and his character development was in Season 3

Trusting the Lord in our trials was very well explained ….although in our earthly life the mysteries are still difficult .I especially liked how we choose to follow it is not forced on us, but a choose. We are called to serve, we choose to follow and serve. Thank you Lord ><>

Wonderful interview and discussion! Thank you.

7 seasons

I have really enjoyed this discussion. I’m in the uk and I love The Chosen too and I think this series is a fantastic chance for everyone to come to know Christ 🙏

This Archbishop is so lovable and wise. God bless him ♥️🙏♥️

I see Jesus showing us to let go of human resources, and trust in Divine Providence, in order to become stronger and wiser and detached… He came to us as a poor Messiah to teach us that The Kingdom of God is spiritual and things, health, etc. have no bearing on Heaven and earning sanctity. ♥️🙏♥️

Jesús didn’t go for Lazarus because He wanted for his disciples to know that He is The Way, The Truth and The Life. Similar but a bit different was with John the Baptist, He was called to go, but He didn’t go, cause John had accomplished his mission and the disciples had to see what you sometimes have to do to follow Jesus, especially in the Apostles case because they were going to be martyred except John.

I love that it’s called The Chosen, and not The Jesus. Because it’s from the point of view of the apostles.

2:57 thank you, thank you what a beautiful job you all have done. I am so addicted to watching even if I seen it before.

I have a problem with praying to Mary. Where in the bible does it say to do that? Yes, she was chosen to be the mother of Jesus. That is huge. But others are also used by God. I pray to God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
