Everyday Discernment Podcast, Episode 17: Jonathan Roumie Interview //Jesus from The Chosen season 2

Jonathan is an actor and he played Jesus on the amazing series, The Chosen. As a huge fan of the series, I was very excited to be able to talk with him.
In this episode we discuss:
- How and why Jonathan started acting
- His favorite movies and some of his favorite voice work that he's done
- How he was chosen for the role of Jesus
- How he balances the weight and the emotion of acting in such an important role
- Actors who have played Jesus before that made an impact on him
- The tension between staying true to the Bible while also allowing for interpretation to be able to complete the vision for The Chosen
- The significance to Jesus' words based on the context of where He was living and the culture of the time
- Parallels with the disciples following Jesus and us today choosing to follow Him
- How we, as Christians, can make a difference in today's culture
- Season 2! I ask Jonathan what he is most looking forward to...
- Jonathan talks about the purpose of the Hallow app that he is featured on (see link below)

Make America Holy Again

[@may-julymoney295]

Because you are reaching people for Christ, you must put on the full armor of God and be prepared for attacks from the dark side. Satan doesn't go on vacation unless he can find his target there. Prayers for you, Jonathan, that you will always be protected by the hand of God. Thanks for being a blessing for so many who now seek a closer walk with God.

[@charisma1270]

Keeping you in prayer too Jonathan 🙏Warfaring together with other saints for those the LORD is using in this season. God's hand is in all of cast and crew of Chosen. And I know there will be more in the cast and crew coming to Christ

[@raufgiwa2083]

Definitely, The Holy Spirit has empowered Jonathan in his acting. Not only that, he was being prepared right from his childhood and seeking God's face while the show is on through prayers, and understanding the immensity of the role he is taking on and the impact the chosen has made all over the world makes one thing clear. Definitely, it is God at work, God is with you, Jonathan, and we love what you are doing. Keep up the good work of the Gospel of Christ. God bless you.

Thank you for representing Jesus Christ, Jonathan, a high calling indeed! Your name is the same as one of my grandsons, 23 years old. I pray for him and I’ll continue to pray for you. May you come to know the Lord Jesus more and more “close up” as you read the Scriptures and serve him passionately, living in His shoes. You’ll be amazed with His great love and grace for you🙂.It’s a privilege to represent the Father’s Son in His humanity, and now the One sitting at His right hand, ready to come and receive His children. Take courage, His Spirit will continue to teach you. In His grace, Virginia

Praise To Lord Jesus Christ

[@e.g.1431]

I remember I would watch Catholic stories during the weekends, about Christ and many of our Mother Mary appearing to many. I was around 6-7 years of age. I remember when I saw Jesus Christ carrying his cross through his Passion and when he would fall I thought I could go through the t.v. screen and help him pick up his cross and had a kitchen towel to clean his blood. I could hear my mom/dad laugh behind me however all I saw was Christ falling and bleeding and all I wanted to do was to Help Christ. My Dad would pick me up and sit me down between them

[@normaquirolgico1257]

With the evolution , social, culture, social media, family, education, etc I feel and I think I need to anchor to awareness of values, religious, spiritual, moral, social values, so I don't get vulnerable to dumbing my faith. With prayers, I can be steadfast in my faith. God bless

Mary Martha and Lazarus please

[@margcarter3758]

Infant baptism is not supported in Gods Word. Only believers baptism that comes after receiving salvation through the new birth. An infant has no capability of the concept of sin or the redemptive work of Christ who paid the penalty for their sin!

[@DiscerningDad]

That was never brought up in this interview. Why do you feel the need to bring it up now?
