Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Sound Theology and Discernment, Justin Peters is joined by Pastor Gabe Hughes (WWUTT – When We Understand the Text) to examine the popular series The Chosen through the lens of Scripture. Together they address Dallas Jenkins' claim that Mormons and Christians "love the same Jesus," the Mormon and ecumenical influences behind the series, and troubling scenes such as the Sermon on the Mount "rehearsal" and the John 3 conversation with Nicodemus. This discussion also considers the larger issue of portraying Christ on film, why such portrayals distort rather than reveal Him, and why Christians must rest in the sufficiency of God's Word instead of the fads of evangelical entertainment.
