But most importantly, I think that we're in a time in history where people need to be uplifted and are looking for hope. Do you think the series will have appeal with general audiences who just happen to come upon it when flicking channels? Up to now, The Chosen has been sort of a hidden gem, available only on VidAngel. I recently spoke to Rabbi Sobel about the authenticity of content in The Chosen, how the production ensures its accuracy, and the vital role of prayer in the making of the series.

In addition to the eight episodes from season one, TBN will also air The Chosen Unveiled,a program hosted by Rabbi Jason Sobel that will help viewers understand the traditions and activities of the New Testament that were present during the life of Christ. Since the middle of last year, The Chosenhas been viewed online nearly 50 million times in 180 countries. The series that is the largest Crowdfunded TV show project in history, takes an inside look at the ministry of Jesus, and depicts the Gospel story through eyes of the townspeople who encounter Him.

The Chosen, the first ever multi-season television show about the life of Jesus debuted on Monday and will air seven more episodes every Monday evening until Easter. Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN) is bringing the good news to their network this week … literally.
