I like it as a movie series as it make Jesus cheerful and approachable. Most Christian depictions show Him very serious and sad.

But as a Bible teacher, I catch many errors in most depiction about Jesus. I have the most difficulty teaching about the Sabbath and Christmas and Easter. I keep giving them chapter and verse and read it with them and they still insist what Grandma taught them is correct. Most people have never even finished the whole Bible and attend church less than 10 times a year. Jesus never observed Easter or Christmas and God specifically said these days are an abomination in Eze 8 and Jer 10 :3-4 about trees in the house.I left a church because the pastor said Jesus stopped at the woman at the well because He was tired and didn't know He would meet the woman there. I said He was God, and he said He was a man.... (get this!) AT THAT TIME. Jesus took the route through Samaria in order to have the conversation with the woman so it would be written in Scripture for our learning. The Holy Spirit Jesus had speaking to Him is the same Spirit that speaks to us Christians. He doesn't have to practice.

Keep in mind Dallas and Amanda are always reminding people that “Bible Preach”. Using the series as a lesson in the differences between the Bible and a TV show.

I love the hours of discussion in small and large groups discussing so “Chosen-isms” that help the storyline but are NOT found word for word scripture. I love the Artistic Liberty that presents these opportunities to think and discuss questions like

Hmmmm. Did it really happen like that or could it have been more like this or that. I have learned to be content with Bible Preach and TV show entertainment
