Playing Jesus w/ Jonathan Roumie | Pints with Aquinas: Episode 236

[@stephenyoung8069]

Watching this show is what brought atheist me to read The Gospel of Mathew. I have read the Bible every day since and am now a devout Christian.

[@ulty1472]

Epic

[@GloriousPanic]

So happy to read about your journey. I've had a similar awakening due to this show. I picked up the season 1 devotional which I'm really enjoying. I'm struggling as to which church to join. I'm also a little nervous about the bible. The old english it uses confuses me a bit. So I'm thinking of getting a modern english version. Is the Book of Matthew a good place to start ? Any advice you could give would really be helpful.

[@P1A48VO8]

@@GloriousPanic the book of Matthew is 100% the place to start for a nee Christian. Read through the New testament in its completion. (I might hold off on revelation until you have read the old testament and have vastly raised your biblical knowledge.) so save the last book of the new testament for the very very final one you read

[@ShalaJC]

That's amazing! About 4 years ago I had a similar experience, I was actually reading the bible to rebuke the bible. I was that kind of atheist. I found myself at first joking about it. Later, my face was on the ground and I prayed Jesus is Lord and I am a wretched man who deserves NOTHING from Him. From that day on I pray every morning, for God to stay with me, and not let me go astray again.

[@servornon]

@@GloriousPanic Hi, you definitely shouldn't use the old english King James bible; there are plenty of modern translations. The Catholic NASB or RSV are the most popular modern translations. But I agree; the book of Matthew is my favorite and covers all of the bases. It is fleshed out and explained in more detail.

[@lovelandfrog5692]

Jonathan has such a sweet face and kind eyes. He does a wonderful job portraying Jesus.

[@Rony2453]

yes, I agree. He has such an expressive face.

[@CarolMcKenna-yf5uq]

Jonathan is a good actor and a very good man.

[@Love_Divine]

Yeah… and his face is warping to look more and more like HIM. Watch S4 and compare it to S1.

[@aplacetoshare2707]

Best casting of Jesus ive ever seen 😊😊 he brings something so lovely and genuine to the character. The show was responsible for sealing my faith in Jesus. I came to full faith and trust in Jesus because of the show 🥰

[@bonniebanjo7]

Me too!

[@TheMerFree]

Praise God! That's amazing! Very happy for you.

[@sarahd3307]

I remember my first ever chosen video. Somehow he had a short hair cut, and I kept watching the videos of him with longer hair. Funny I know that's nothing concrete to go by, but I like Jonathan's humanity and i really like him(Jesus) ...never mind the hair. Later I even installed the app, that I loved. My favourite disciple that I can relate to is Peter, I keep watching the video where he decides against his wife's wishes to follow Jesus. 🌸

[@hotconcrete]

@@sarahd3307 Actually, his wife was very positive about him following Jesus!

[@lyndavonkanel8603]

When Jonathan interacts with other characters as Jesus the compassion in his eyes cannot be faked. I know this as a former student actress. These things have to be internalized. He beautifully shows Jesus' love for us.

[@aguilacec]

I love him on The Chosen and he’s Catholic!!! How awesome!!

[@CalebWillden]

31:13 "I just try to clear out my own head, clear out my own spirit, and just open my heart in the scene, and try to be present with the person in front of me. Then the rest is whatever the spirit lets happen." This sounds like a beautiful path to follow throughout life.

[@lisasmith8517]

Jonathan is right - this cast is a beautiful family. That's what my husband said when he got to join them as an extra for a short time. He said not a single one of them has too much ego - they are all kind and professional and very loving toward each other. There is an amazing transformation that occurs when Jonathan portrays Jesus. We all see the Divine help in that role - we all recognize it.

[@jaydee5447]

This dude is a phenomenal actor. Not sure any one could play this roll as well as Jonathon has. When you’re as talented as he is, coupled with his humility in submission to the divine then you truly can move mountains

[@harmonygordon6901]

It would be IMPOSSIBLE for me to love the casting of THE CHOSEN more than I do. GOD BLESS THE WHOLE PROJECT

[@AllanKoayTC]

i think most everyone had the same reaction as you, Matt, when they first heard about The Chosen. I also thought "Naaah, it's just going to be another hokey Christian show with cheap-looking sets." Boy, was I so wrong. and when I saw Jonathan as Jesus for the first time, I was like, wow, finally an ethnic-looking Jesus! now, I'm a hardcore fan of the show. it changed my life and reignited my faith. God bless the cast and crew.

[@jazzeravalerie]

SAME I LOVE THE SHOW SM IM WATCHING A SECOND TIME RN 🤣

[@hotconcrete]

As a lifetime Catholic, I am so blown away by the Chosen. It has given me a window into life during Jesus' ministry. Now, when I read or hear a story from `the New Testament, I immediately can visualize the people and surroundings like I never did previously. I have watched all of the episodes at least 5 times and it seems like I see something new every time I watch an episode.

[@madcyborg1822]

Honestly, I appreciate what the show is doing, but I just cannot get over the fact that they took the Gospels and made a sitcom style show out of it.

[@laurencewainwright]

Please don't play the race card with Christ.

[@SklLLLY]

Ethnic lol. U could put him in a lineup with all the other hollywood jesus’ and the only difference is they stopped casting blue eyes decades ago… they’re still handsome white boys

[@bonniejeancampbell3851]

That is a wonderful testimony ! I have been a Christian for a long time, but The Chosen has made it more real somehow. It has led me to completely surrender all of my life to Jesus whereas before i sometimes thought i could "do life on my own" turning to God only during hard times or times of suffering. My prayer life and Christian walk are so much deeper now.

[@thatsandgirl3046]

Jonathan has so much grace. I don't believe anyone could do a better job in that role. He is so down-to-earth, relaxed and confident. He engages beautifully in interviews,

[@mbiss1991]

It is inspiring and touching to see someone playing Jesus who has been touched by the Holy Spirit and feels that this is not just work, but a mission to spread the Gospel.

[@geneparadiso6258]

What delightful person is Jonathan. Look at the stuff behind him!

​@@Praise___YaH Clearly, you are learned of the letter of the law, but devoid of it's spirit. 2 CORINTHIANS 3:6 "Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life." The young woman indeed brought forth a young Boy - the Virgin Mary brought forth the Messiah, Yehoshua, as was written in the scriptures of the New Testament - or do you reject the scriptures as the work of the Holy Spirit? Indeed, unto us a Lad is given - the Messiah, Yehoshua. The government is indeed upon his shoulder: and His Name is indeed called [...] The Mighty One, The Everlasting Father, for he is the Son of the Trinity. The divine "Lad", as you call Him, is indeed the Son of the Living God, YHVH. "While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him."

[@BarbaraMiller-b5k]

Jonathan is beautiful inside and out. Beautiful balance of strength, humility and gentleness!

[@baldwinthefourth4098]

I cannot imagine any actor playing Jesus better than Jonathan Roumie. He really did an amazing job. I'd say he is the best Jesus actor I've ever seen, even better than Jim Caviezel in The Passion of the Christ.

[@andrealmoseley6575]

I'm bawling here 3/4 of way through when he says his spirit rejects certain shows. I'm there and so many people don't understand. I loved his answer to that question.

[@roseg1333]

I think Johnathan looks the most like what I think Jesus looks like in his mannerisms and his over all look ☺️😊🙏🏼🕊️✝️

[@emac279]

The Chosen is one of the great surprises of the Holy Spirit on this weary old blue planet, There aren't adequate words to explain the affect that The Chosen has had on millions and millions of people,,,and one gets the sense that the Lord himself chose Jonathan Roumie to play this part, as well as Shamar Isaac and every single person involved in this amazing series,,it's like He just dropped in on all these peoples lives and said Come On,,,and they all said Yes,,,Just look what happened,,,,,on behalf of all of us who watch the Chosen,,,,we can't wait for Season 2,,,God Bless Jonathan and Shamar and Noah and Paras,,,all of them,,international stars almost overnight,,,,,and thank you Matt Fradd,,,if you weren't doing your show,,,you'd be great in such a series,,,,, and everytime Jonathan gives interviews,,,,up goes the amount of people watching,,,,

[@mary83215]

Yes, the scene with Jesus and Nicodemus on the roof, is by far, one of the most moving and very well done of all the episodes. Yet so many scenes are very well done and moving. Also, when Mary came back after leaving the camp because of disturbing events. Her return and the forgiveness shown to her, her tears, and embrace, all made me cry. Then Andrew crying over John the Baptizer, oh ! I have watched these episodes in both Seasons at least 20 times each and maybe more by now.

[@mirnacudiczgela1963]

Which season is it and which episode? I mean with Mary Magdalene escaping and being forgiven. I started watching it on the app.

Really nice to see a devoted human doing his best to bring an important message to life 💚 Also, his T-shirt is brilliant 😆 I want one

[@carolgraham7691]

I love his sentient protrayal of our Lord...the most sensitive and humanlike communication of the person on film..from a PROTESTANT.

[@gianlucarossi5672]

Jonathan Roumie was a great choice for portraying Jesus. He looks very much like the Jesus from the Shroud of Turin. Amazing.

[@javiercabrera3517]

Jonathan's heart and spirit are so humble, honest. Thank you Jonathan for being transparent.

[@Hotcheetos25]

He was definitely the perfect person to portray Jesus for this show🙌 also , hallow rocks my face off 😎

[@augustsunflower771]

Because Jonathan Roumie is hardly anything like Jesus, he says it himself that he’s so terribly flawed and people often get disappointed to meet him , I see now why it had to be Him playing Jesus because the Bible reminds that where mistakes abound where sin abounds Grace abounds all the way more ..It’s God way of using the lowly to confound the mighty..I love how modest He is , and clearly there’s such an anointing on this man .. God bless Him and the show 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️

[@mnm2156]

I love that Jonathan has a picture of the Merciful Jesus. I have one too. God bless you all.

[@Kelless629]

I am obsessed with the show in the healthiest way possible, as I am returning back home to my faith, the timing of discovering the chosen, and the unforeseen massively impactful impression it is leaving deep within my soul is absolutely remarkable, and I really am without words. I was also raised Catholic and unfortunately lost my way many many many times during my life I never stopped believing, but I never felt it was possible to have such a beautiful relationship with Jesus Christ, and Jonathan’s portrayal opens the door to the reality that Jesus is not only our savior, but our best friend, our biggest fan and the one whom I desire to make most proud. This entire project is such a gift and I truly pray for each and everyone human being involved in cultivating this ….absolutely a gift from God.

[@ToqTheWise]

As a fellow bearded long haired Catholic who also get's compared to Jesus at least several times a year, I may or may not have a big huge man crush on Jnathan Roumie.

[@bySaebraut]

Well I'm pretty mesmerized by Mr. Jonathan Roumie. He communicates so much through his eyes and the tone of his voice, its touching and exciting to see what is until now, imo, the best portrayal of Jesus. Jim Caviezel, as far as I remember, had also that tenderness in his eyes, but he was more distant than what we see in The Chosen. I am being pulled to search and try to understand more about the Catholic Church because of him and how he gives himself so freely to it + also because of the series. Still have a long way to go. Beautiful chat and interaction, thanks for not pushing to keep a schedule or not interrupting him, that makes a wonderful "interview"/conversation. Cheers!

[@SabinePalmer-n5j]

Johnathan, you have encouraged me to speak more openly about belief. Thanks for your work, I love it.

[@JayAruga]

Even Jonathan Roumie just being Jonathan Roumie telling his story about being at his lowest and submitting to God makes me tearful.

Saw Jonathan speak at the March for Life today and replayed it for the family. It was an AMAZING INSPIRED speech; just incredible. Can't wait to see The Chosen - Family is going to watch for the next few weeks daily to catch up.

[@mary83215]

I love the way Jesus was teaching Nicodemus about being born again and what the kingdom of God is. I love it. Every movement, every word, every facial expression was perfect for me. I could watch that scene 100 times easy.

Jonathan embodies a perfect example of displaying living one’s faith with fear and trembling: he’s so respects what he’s doing and puts into proper perspective what he needs to, through prayer, and genuinely seeks humility, so as to (with our LORD as his helper) avoid the pitfalls of adulation that this world would seek to put upon him.

[@charlesdavidperkinsjr4327]

He has quickly become my favorite version of the Messiah on screen. My favorite part of this back and forth is around the 45 minute mark, where he speaks about his Spirit rejecting bad things on television, and how his Spirit also Rejects the idea of taking an audition for a role in the same vein. And can you imagine how tragic it would be if the thing he decided to do after this was take up an acting career which featured tons of debauchery? Perhaps I only speak for myself, but it would leave a pretty significant stain in my mind.

Great interview. Anyone else pick up on the metaphor for Jonathan's trust in the show's creator to our trust in Divine Will? When asked if he's ever conflicted about creative decisions regarding how to tell a certain part of the story, he said, "You're not always thinking about the bigger picture, of what the overarching story is. He [the show's creator] knows what the story is from beginning to end; we don't. We get season by season and episode by episode, but he knows what the bigger picture is so I always have to defer to him and trust him."

LOVE Johnathan Roumie! He portrays Jesus in a way that has changed my life. I have always loved Jesus, of course, but I always thought of him as a lofty, high up God, not a fun, joking, man. I like this changing perspective and reminding me that Jesus was also a man and had aspects of a man.

[@SonshineGirl001]

I had the exact same experience with this show as Matt. At first, I was skeptical and thought it would be cheesy, but because I kept hearing good things about it, I decided to watch it. It started out very well, but I thought I would be disappointed when Jesus came on the scene. However, I fell in love with Jesus! He was on-screen exactly how I know He is/was, loving kind, fun, genuine! I watched the entire Season 1 in one sitting, staying up till 2AM. I could not stop watching. I laughed and cried and wanted it to continue forever. This is now my favorite show. I cannot wait to watch Season 2.
