    God touched this single show and

    Look at the crop it grows episode after season and a growing series. No man knows Jesus day by day for his 33ish years on this Earth. So the Chosen has done the best to keep fans interested as well as honor the Bible. People paid to make the show and seasons later It is profitable and fights challenges to be made. But overcomes them. Bless them and I'm a fan and think fans are in Heaven, maybe help at times. I can't answer for sure here but I can one day I'm there. Hope to see you the reader there to. Watch the show, even if you disagree. Look it up, the #1 book in the world is where to look. God bless you in your search. Please don't wait to long. For Jesus returns and the pathway for Eternal Judgement begins.

    A New Christmas Tradition Watch

    "A young mother labeled impure. A shepherd boy considered "unclean". A never-before-seen performance from Andrea Bocelli highlights seven music performances and two beautiful new monologues."

    I don't get all the review-bombing here considering all the features were spelled out in the tag-line.

    Overall, I really enjoyed the films and the musical performances. Even the speaking/monologues were great. I felt they provided great natural breaks to the film that added a different pacing that I really enjoyed.

    The messenger has such a unique feel given that it is a short film from years before the show's release. If I didn't know Shepherd & Messengers were separate films, I never would have noticed given how perfectly the two are woven together here. I found it to be an amazing and accurate portrayal on the Christmas story without feeling like an under budget rendition of the virgin birth.

    Holy Night

    The wonderful truth about this movie is it's focus on what Christmas is all about...the birth of the Christ child. The night sky effects where the shepherds were mesmerized watching the host of Angels knowing that something miraculous was taking place for all humanity to praise throughout all generations for the common folks and people of all classes and backgrounds is what is so humbling and fulfilling. This miraculous birth took place in common surroundings and not in a five star hotel is what was so beautifully portrayed here. The message is clear that Christ, the savior was born for all men as the three powerful kings came to a humble area to behold the Christ child...King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

    Excellent Production

    It was exactly what I expected based in the description and my wife and I enjoyed it immensely.

    Be prepared for a modern church service with uplifting music, information about what's happening within the 'church' (Angel Studios), a sermon, mini-movie and closing music.

    For those who didn't understand that going into the theater, it's unfortunate some of you left before the mini production of Joseph and Mary's trip to Bethlehem and search for a place to stay as well as the Shepherd's story.

    If you have a chance, it is well worth your time, just understand what you are going to see and sit back and let it soak in.

    Exceptional instance classic sans music part

    Christmas With The Chosen will instantly become a new Christmas Classic! I personally cut to the chase and fast forwarded to watch The Shepherd and The Messanger movies interwoven. It was SEAMLESS & INSPIRING. It had it all; past, present & future. All of Dallas Jenkins projects related to this The Chosen effort have been truly divinely inspired. You can literally see and feel it. Goosebumps galore! 👏🏿👊

    So glad it was on Amazon Prime so I could get directly to the movie. 😀 Even though I'm a liturgical musician I wasn't interested in the co-mingling of the genres in this instance. There's a time and place to play holiday music but this is not one. I rated 9 out of 10 for that very reason. Fast Forward first 28 minutes and go back and listen at another time.
