Cheryl Magness is not alone. I watched and loved the first two seasons. I can’t bring myself to watch the third now.

Read the Bible instead.

I don’t blame you. If you want alternatives, you can always watch “The Passion Of The Christ”, “The Greatest Story Ever Told”, “Ben-Hur”, “King Of Kings”, “The Bible” and the spin off movie “Son Of God” and “Jesus Of Nazareth”.

That’s a good idea.

This may be one of those ‘Let’s look at the glass as Half Full vs Half Empty”. IOW, with such a complex and personal topic as sexuality, we are not likely to always hear what we wish to hear from every single person involved in a cause we approve of.

Those actors would be more professional if they would refrain from posting any personal views on a controversial matter, but the younger people of today don’t seem inclined to set many boundaries between personal and working life. Either they never wanted to know or were never expected to know. Some don’t seem to know what ‘private’ means.

For me, it’s the same theory with politics. I will never get everything I want from one politician on every topic that matters to me, but I will often find something to value anyway.

It was always heretical, extra-Biblical nonsence.

This is the concern I expressed here when people were going all ga-ga over this series and I was shouted down as denying people a chance of hearing (or of seeing playacted) the Gospel who might otherwise not hear it.

Hollywood may occasionally be able to pull a good, one-off biblically-themed movie once in a while, but for an extended series where the viewers become emotionally invested, the façade eventually cracks and people get disillusioned by seeing how deeply the producers are steeped in the world, including it's uglier aspects.

This was a joke, but this isn't subject matter on which to joke about:

The Chosen Director Apologizes for 'Defaced' Billboard Confusion, Says It's Targeting Non-Christians

Agreed.
We aren’t to make images of God.
Christ is God. God the Son.
I get that we like visual aids, and enjoy watching movies - but if we want to learn about Christ, the Word made flesh, - read His Book, the written Word.
We will also note that there is not a single word describing His physical appearance in the Bible. That was by intent. God does not want us making idols and worshipping images.

Yes, I remember some of those on a prior thread about that where concerns were posted about the creator’s comments about Mormonism.

My brother @GCairo06 isn’t the only one who stands by the LGBTQ members of our Chosen family 💪🏳️‍🌈❤️ get outta here with your hate, homophobia and ignorance. Not very Jesus-like of you, Jonny.

And likewise, take your hate, heterophobia, and ignorance out of here as well.

“But The Cast And Crew Are Forcing Me To Walk Away”
Which is exactly what the satanists want you to do.

Jesus wasn't particularly tolerant.

If fact, he was tolerant of sin at all.
