As someone who left Islam to follow Christ, I understand the family struggle. My family wants me dead for leaving their religion. I put Jesus above everything and everyone, myself included. I have denied myself, picked up my cross and followed Him. I don’t know where I’m suppose to go but I trust my God has a special plan for me. Hallelujah ✝️
I pray through you, your family gets to know the real Jesus Christ... If you are close to any of them you can recommend this movie to them... And pray God open their eyes to the truth
God bless and keep you safe. You have a message of saving to help others to leave behind Satan, and follow the True God, through our coming King, Jesus Christ.
@@elizabethjansen2684 yea history has kind of painted "The Romans" as one kind of person. but in reality they were just people, like you and i. the soldiers especially ones that just patrolled occupied towns were just doing a job for the government. they lived there, ate there, knew the people.
You have to imagine, when He would look at you, you WOULD FEEL Him looking into your person, and when He said your name, you WOULD FEEL He knows me! I think they caught that moment very well.
The Chosen is a TV show about those who were peripheral to Christ. It's not meant to replace the Bible. But its timing upon the culture is surely by God's design. May this show continue to impact the culture all over the planet. Thanks Dallas & Team! Can't wait for the new season! -Sean Elliot Russell

Invite God and Jesus into your day. When your getting ready ask him to be with you when your watching something ask him to be with you he wants to spend time with you in anything you do and through out the day talk to him about anything and everything and instead of venting to people vent to him for he’s the only one who can make it better and won’t use it against you for he doesn’t judge you and loves you no matter what you do

The way that Jesus called Matthew, and how Matthew just gave in. One of my most favorite scenes. And how his heart changed while following Jesus.. so many like Matthew need Jesus but are stubborn.. I pray for our country, and our world.. God bless💙
Yes. Matthew was troubled after witnessing the fish miracle. If he was ever going to understand, he had to follow the one who made him troubled. And so it was! Jesus had already spoken of Matthew when speaking to Thomas at the wine miracle. "Theres someone like you in Capernaum, always counting, always measuring".
Shalom Shalom everyone. Saint Matthew was killed in India when he was doing what he was supposed and ordained to do. All the apostles were killed. Only Saint John, he lived a long life, wrote the book. He lived in the Island, Patmos. The incredible books and gospel of the four saints must be read. Look up, The Road to Damascus of Saint Paul who came much later after the apostles. The Bible must be read 😊 May Our LORD continue His blessings to all my brothers and sisters in Christ ✨
I LOVE THE PART WHEN JESUS CALL'S MATTHEW AND SIMON PETER SAYS DO YOU EVEN KNOW HIM? AND JESUS SAYS "YES". JESUS KNOWS US ALL. SO COMFORTING TO MY SOUL ❤️
I loved seeing the transformation of characters in this scene. For years and and years Matthew and his parents hadn’t talked at all. Suddenly there comes Jesus and his amazing sermon and it motivates Matthew to speak to his parents and his parents to reconcile with him. Wow! So amazing to see that. It’s amazing to witness the miracles that god can perform and sometimes listening to his word can help us in certain situations more than others

@@rachels9598 ig it was sort of a cultural thing I mean even now there are certain men who never hug their children but just shake hands. It doesn’t rlly matter if they embraced them or not people have different ways of showing love and it isn’t always a hug you know? Shalom
@@rachels9598 Matthew is being portrayed as autistic in this series & doesn't like being touched (we see a hint of this in the circle prayer with the disciples - Simon says "I know you hate it Matthew, but you too.") Probably only his mother can "get away with" hugging him.
I, too, am “mildly fond” of Matthew. As someone who has been praying for reconciliation of a family member for many years this has given me so much hope. The telling thing was that both sides listened to Jesus’ words and acted upon them. That will continue to be my prayer, for my heart and theirs. Thank you, Chosen Team.
As the only person in my hindu family to come to Christ through a dream, and baptised in Him, continuing to live with my parents, learning how to love them like Jesus Wants, despite their disapproval of my faith - needless to say, the last scene with Matthew's family reconciling with him gives me immense hope. I know that my Lord Jesus will carry me through and one day bring my family to Him
I was born and raised an orthodox Christian, but never felt it. This show has awaken my faith, at 40 years old. I took all this time, but I have finally arrived. Jesus is king ❤ 🙏 A colossal THANK YOU to the creators of this show, from the bottom of my heart.
I've watched all of these episodes and seen this progression take place. Multiple times. For some reason, until today, watching this video, pieced together the way it was, I never really identified with Matthew all that much. Today, something is different. I cried as Matthew said that he didn't know why Jesus chose him. To be honest, I feel the same. But if Matthew is part of God's plan then so am I. Thank you for this today.
@@beatlecristian praying to the Saints and Mother Mary as well as worshiping them is wrong that’s all I’m saying Edit: also no good works can get you to heaven. That’s like bribing a judge after committing a terrible crime
I’m sitting here bawling like a baby!! This episode of Matthew and his mom and dad, really was heartbreaking at first, then turned out so perfectly done. Well done, Dallas Jenkins and the Chosen friends!! Well done!!
I could watch this 100 times. I see my husband and myself and my son in this very situation. Praying for his return to God and a healing of hearts. Holy Father have your way! Tears…😭😭😭
I am also on the spectrum. I grew up in the 70s, when people didn’t know much about it. I had no support from my family. My mother used to tell people, “don’t pay any attention to him, he’s different.“ Everytime Matthew describes himself as different, I feel closer to his character. When Jesus said, “get used to different,“ I have never felt more proud of myself.
How you all portrayed Matthew shattered the stone around my heart and made me realize I was being called and was ignoring our Lord so much. God Bless you, you brought me back to the Church. God is working through all of you.
As an autistic Christian myself, the way he potrays the feeling of being overwhelmed, of scrabbling to keep up with the world around him while he's still trying to make sense of fice minutes ago, is pitch perfect. This is exactly what the world can be like for people like me.
Matthew being called is one of my favorite moments. I love how he responds in shock - very well acted. And i relate to his feeling different from others. Its nice to see neurodiversity represented so respectfully.
Blessed enough to have seen this with many other Chosen fans at the Atlanta premiere last year. The whole audience was crying and clapping. It was such an emotional moment. Can't imagine how Paras was feeling sitting there. He so beautifully portrays Matthew. And I'm sure this reconciliation was something many people can relate to on some level. I certainly can. Love this!
Matthew's character arc ~ along with those surrounding this entire storyline throughout the series ~ has been sooo beautiful ~ I still cry for J😂Y 🙌🏽 every time I watch them all unfold❣🙏🏽
Yeah I was just wondering why that part of the storyline was dropped. I mean I know the dog was a metaphor for being a despised outcast in society, but it would have been nice to know "The rest of the story" about the dog just to have closure.
I looked it up and Isrealites didn't have pet dogs until later on compared to other civilization groups. I'm not sure when they adopted the trend but it would explain why his parents look concerned and confused about the dog and Gaius wondering why they seem clueless about how dogs work.
I love how you show Matthew’s progression to repentance. It doesn’t happen immediately. Even when he decides to follow Jesus, he still doesn’t fully see what he’s done wrong. Then when confronted by Simon and Andrew in Season 2, he’s still defensive. It takes two full seasons of growth and learning to be humble before he actually apologizes. I just love how it demonstrates that even genuine conversion isn’t an overnight fix. It’s a long-term commitment to do the work and faith that God will see you through. He still hasn’t had a real heart-to-heart resolution with Simon though. Hope that’s coming. Simon has some work still to do as well. Maybe this conflict will be the catalyst in Simon asking Jesus “How many times do I need to forgive my brother?” 🤔
This series is changing my life beyond. I am seeing things so much clearly and my bond with God is growing stronger by the day. I find so much courage in the story from Matthew as I can relate to so many ways. I pray God bless this organisation to bring is continued content about the bible. This is exactly what the world needs right now. Much love from South Africa 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

As an Autistic Man, this means more to me than I can say. I hated as a kid always feeling different from everyone, and now as an Adult I’ve been battling p0rn addiction I fell into when I was younger. It’s destroyed the great life I had tried to build with others, and now all I want is to be forgiven and leave behind my Sin. God help me in my journey, that I might have the Faith to follow Him like the Woman that I love has. Hail to the Lord King of Heaven and Earth, and to all those at the Chosen, thank you for this series. It’s made it a bit easier to read the Scriptures. My Lady I love so dearly and I read them often. Her favorites are Isaiah and Psalms right now. So, truly, thank you.
@@bearvillebear1468I’ve been working a lot with my Pastor on it, deconstructing the guilt and shame and other things that’ve been driving me back into Sin again and again.
Thank You again for this scene - I needed the tears. My parents have been gone for 21 and 31 years - I miss them SO much and wish to share with them the changes over the last 30 years of my life. I know they are watching somehow, with my Father. I look forward to Season 4
As someone with autism, i relate to Matthew's portrayal so much. And little moments like him fidgeting with the cloth and laying it down to hug his Eema (which wasn't scripted) are such freat visual storytelling. Showing how anxious he is, and then how relieved he is to be accepted back into his family.
oooooh this Matthew .....may G'd Elhim by the power of Yeshua, assure all parents, in His Shalom about their kids, choosing wrongly and may they rejoice after sadness, pain, heartbroke, patience, enduring, not enduring, making mistakes themselves, evrmore! Amen
Beautiful scene! God bless the actors that helped us feel so deeply, Dallas for his writing group that brought to us a moment of healing between families, that inspire us to try harder and The Chosen as a whole to change our hearts and minds forever. Amen!
The top five of my Favorite books of the bible and watching it come to life on the screen with the dialogue and all the words being lifted off of the pages of the bible exhilarates me and makes me stronger in my conviction to follow jesus
matthew shows us how anyone can follow Jesus. how He is always holding out His hand. ready for us to be with Him. no matter what circumstance our life looks like. He is ready to help us make that change. thank you Jesus! for not giving up on me.
I’ve always told God I wanted everyone to hear his word and search for more. The Chosen is one of his ways of achieving my request. Thank you Dallas, your crew and your amazing cast 💖🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻💖.
My favorite moment here is when the parents realize that Matthew is Jesus' scribe. But a close second is the symbolism of Matthew putting down his ever-present tissue (20:14) in order to fully hug his mother. It's the moment he releases his past emotional bondage.
i can't wait to meet these people in glory,and all of his fellow apostles,but mainly i want to meet JESUS,AND YES THIS SHOW IS BRINGING PEOPLE BACK TO THE LORD,OH WHAT A GLORIOUS DAY THAT WILL BE,GOD BLESS EVERYONE,SEE YOU ALL IN HEAVEN
Watching again and again, each time more layers are unveiled. Praise His Holy Name. Adoni help all these Your workers to express Your thoughts in their works and fill their prayers with praise.
@@TheChosenSeries the look that Jesus gives Matthew as he walks by his booth. You can literally feel the power of God hit your soul at that moment.. it's a feeling that can't be characterized with human words. Nothing that I could attempt to describe it would come close to giving it any form of the justice that it deserves. "A shock wave of the most powerful, and explosive love" is merely an understatement for it..
Thank you Chosen Team for this beautiful montage of Matthew . 🕊 In this current season of Yom Kippur and true repentance , Matthew's transformation thru the love, guidance and protection of Yeshua is a wonder to behold visually ( as you are so adept and talented to present to the world ). THE WORD is the rock on what we have learned our Faith, but your visual presentations have put flesh and bones to our understanding ! 💗💟💞 We are breathlessly awaiting your release of Season 4 !!! Blessings, Grace and Shalom to you all .🙏🙏🙏
Jesus the King! As long as you're not stuck in a religious (spirit) you can't understand how important this beautiful TV series is! The church was never meant to be divided into denominations. Out of order WHO CARES, we know the Word and this is truly ANOINTED by God for such a time as this 🙏 it's a beautiful thing to imagine how it may have been. I thank you Dallas and the wonderful crew and actors for such a phenomenal job! I lost my husband last April so it's been a journey for myself and our 2 son's. He was so lost and committed suicide, but my kid's and I were already absolutely hooked on The Chosen. I have to say there are no words for how this show has helped us through it! We all ware our Chosen sweatshirts and every time we do SOMEONE always comments to us that they love the show as well! Believers sure, but mostly unbelievers who are finding their way to Jesus through watching! It ALWAYS turns into a conversation and sincere love by the time we part ways. It's truly a blessing how The Chosen has given common ground to share Jesus with strangers who would have mabey never even thought about it. God bless and keep you all 🙏❤️🔥
Gaius seems like a genuinely nice person given how he was caring for Matthew in his own way and reached out to his family.
And glory be to God that He redeemed Him... placed me in tears.
How conversion later on makes me so happy.
As someone who left Islam to follow Christ, I understand the family struggle. My family wants me dead for leaving their religion. I put Jesus above everything and everyone, myself included.
I have denied myself, picked up my cross and followed Him. I don’t know where I’m suppose to go but I trust my God has a special plan for me.

We love hearing how The Chosen has impacted your faith journey, @saltoftheearth316.
Waiting for this cut.
This last scene made me cry.
Matthew.... ♥
We all cried, @RANGALANAVEENREDDYECE2021VelTe.
Matthew is my favorite character!
I’m on the spectrum as well, and it’s cool to see this on a faith-based show
❤ When it came to his mom, Matthew had NO aversion to being touched. So sweet... ❤
As an autistic Christian myself, the way he potrays the feeling of being overwhelmed, of scrabbling to keep up with the world around him while he's still trying to make sense of fice minutes ago, is pitch perfect. This is exactly what the world can be like for people like me.
Matthew being called is one of my favorite moments. I love how he responds in shock - very well acted. And i relate to his feeling different from others. Its nice to see neurodiversity represented so respectfully.
Thank you The Chosen for putting Matthews story together in one viewing! His story is one of my favorites.
Matthew is my favorite Apostle. He represents many ostracised as different for mental abilities. Different is good.
Matthew is such a special character, and jesus certainly required his talents. I cannot wait until the new year .
“Come unto me and I will give you rest.” - Jesus 🎉
Blessed enough to have seen this with many other Chosen fans at the Atlanta premiere last year. The whole audience was crying and clapping. It was such an emotional moment. Can't imagine how Paras was feeling sitting there. He so beautifully portrays Matthew. And I'm sure this reconciliation was something many people can relate to on some level. I certainly can. Love this!
And to think that today is precisely the feast of Saint Matthew the Apostle! Wonderful ♥️
Matthew's character arc ~ along with those surrounding this entire storyline throughout the series ~ has been sooo beautiful ~ I still cry for J😂Y 🙌🏽 every time I watch them all unfold❣🙏🏽
I hope Matthew’s parents took care of the dog like feed and water him, pet and play with him too. 🥰❤️
Yeah I was just wondering why that part of the storyline was dropped. I mean I know the dog was a metaphor for being a despised outcast in society, but it would have been nice to know "The rest of the story" about the dog just to have closure.
I looked it up and Isrealites didn't have pet dogs until later on compared to other civilization groups. I'm not sure when they adopted the trend but it would explain why his parents look concerned and confused about the dog and Gaius wondering why they seem clueless about how dogs work.
Me too! But, I am sure they did.
What a lovely seen how Mathew asks forgiveness from his parents, very humbling
Reconciliation and Restoration ❤ So like Yeshua to bring about the plans of the Father for His people. Praise God!!!
I need to watch this from the beginning again. I love this show so much.
I can watch this over and over again and I will never get tired of it. I hope a lot of people learn from Matthew's story. He's my favorite apostle.
Love the "rescue" of Matthew and his family
I love how you show Matthew’s progression to repentance. It doesn’t happen immediately. Even when he decides to follow Jesus, he still doesn’t fully see what he’s done wrong. Then when confronted by Simon and Andrew in Season 2, he’s still defensive. It takes two full seasons of growth and learning to be humble before he actually apologizes.
I just love how it demonstrates that even genuine conversion isn’t an overnight fix. It’s a long-term commitment to do the work and faith that God will see you through.
He still hasn’t had a real heart-to-heart resolution with Simon though. Hope that’s coming. Simon has some work still to do as well. Maybe this conflict will be the catalyst in Simon asking Jesus “How many times do I need to forgive my brother?” 🤔
Thanks for sharing your perspective, Bethany.
Season 4
CRYING!!! I love the forgiveness scene between Matthew and his father so much!
This series is changing my life beyond. I am seeing things so much clearly and my bond with God is growing stronger by the day. I find so much courage in the story from Matthew as I can relate to so many ways. I pray God bless this organisation to bring is continued content about the bible. This is exactly what the world needs right now. Much love from South Africa 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Love the story of Matthew and his father and mother and how they became a family again! So touching! 🥰🥲
I absolutely luv The Chosen! When I would read my Bible (NKJV) I never could understand it... When I watched The Chosen & when I read my Bible, I understand it so clearly now! Praise God! ❤️🔥🙌🏼❤️🔥 Wat a Blessing! ❣️
Wonderful! We're glad to hear The Chosen has helped you understand the Bible, Shandi.
@@TheChosenSeries May God Bless y'all 2 the fullest n Jesus Christ Name. A friend of mine gave her life 2 Jesus when I let her borrow all 3 Season's of The Chosen that I bought. Jesus Christ is literally all me & her talk about! It's a Blessing n so many ways thanks 2 The Chosen Team. ALL Glory 2 God! ❤️🔥🙌🏼❤️🔥 Luv y'all so much! ❣️ ~Shandi from Whiteville, N.C.~
Same😃 mostly “The chosen” has helped me to understand the most of the Bible, and now I’m finally reading it
Same for thank you cast and crew of The Chosen !
Matthew is my favorite character. I think he reminds me of my 2 children.
My favorite character, too.
Fitting that today is the feast day of St Matthew and this gets uploaded.
What a beautiful Matthew trajectory! Thank you!! ❤
Scene with Matthew gives me goosebumps
Praise God for forgiveness and restoration by His love!
As an Autistic Man, this means more to me than I can say. I hated as a kid always feeling different from everyone, and now as an Adult I’ve been battling p0rn addiction I fell into when I was younger. It’s destroyed the great life I had tried to build with others, and now all I want is to be forgiven and leave behind my Sin. God help me in my journey, that I might have the Faith to follow Him like the Woman that I love has. Hail to the Lord King of Heaven and Earth, and to all those at the Chosen, thank you for this series. It’s made it a bit easier to read the Scriptures. My Lady I love so dearly and I read them often. Her favorites are Isaiah and Psalms right now. So, truly, thank you.
the only safe place in this world is his Words brother
Have you spoken to someone about it? The addiction part I mean. Sometimes having that external accountability can help you with freedom
@@bearvillebear1468I’ve been working a lot with my Pastor on it, deconstructing the guilt and shame and other things that’ve been driving me back into Sin again and again.
Thank You again for this scene - I needed the tears. My parents have been gone for 21 and 31 years - I miss them SO much and wish to share with them the changes over the last 30 years of my life. I know they are watching somehow, with my Father. I look forward to Season 4
Did you notice it is uploaded during Saint Matthew day?❤
As someone with autism, i relate to Matthew's portrayal so much. And little moments like him fidgeting with the cloth and laying it down to hug his Eema (which wasn't scripted) are such freat visual storytelling. Showing how anxious he is, and then how relieved he is to be accepted back into his family.
oooooh this Matthew .....may G'd Elhim by the power of Yeshua, assure all parents, in His Shalom about their kids, choosing wrongly and may they rejoice after sadness, pain, heartbroke, patience, enduring, not enduring, making mistakes themselves, evrmore! Amen
This was the only Matthew I knew of. Is there another?
He is one of the best characteristic in chosen ❤
Way to go Matthew. ❤ we love you!!
I was rewatching Season 3 Episode 2 today! I just love Matthew and his story 🥹
Love the character of Matthew. He is a lot like my 2 grandsons that are on the spectrum. ❤
Matthew is so relatable to many of us, Donna.
Beautiful scene! God bless the actors that helped us feel so deeply, Dallas for his writing group that brought to us a moment of healing between families, that inspire us to try harder and The Chosen as a whole to change our hearts and minds forever. Amen!
Thank you for putting all of these together in one video!!!
Glad you like them, Stephanie!
The top five of my Favorite books of the bible and watching it come to life on the screen with the dialogue and all the words being lifted off of the pages of the bible exhilarates me and makes me stronger in my conviction to follow jesus
matthew shows us how anyone can follow Jesus. how He is always holding out His hand. ready for us to be with Him. no matter what circumstance our life looks like. He is ready to help us make that change. thank you Jesus! for not giving up on me.
Watching this journey with Matthew, the beauty of forgiveness, and the beauty of being called.
I’ve always told God I wanted everyone to hear his word and search for more. The Chosen is one of his ways of achieving my request. Thank you Dallas, your crew and your amazing cast 💖🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻💖.
My favorite moment here is when the parents realize that Matthew is Jesus' scribe. But a close second is the symbolism of Matthew putting down his ever-present tissue (20:14) in order to fully hug his mother. It's the moment he releases his past emotional bondage.
I love Matthew scene of his life . The chosen is good collection app.
Matthew was so gifted and smart i love how he walked away with Jesus
He followed without question.
i can't wait to meet these people in glory,and all of his fellow apostles,but mainly i want to meet JESUS,AND YES THIS SHOW IS BRINGING PEOPLE BACK TO THE LORD,OH WHAT A GLORIOUS DAY THAT WILL BE,GOD BLESS EVERYONE,SEE YOU ALL IN HEAVEN
I love Mathew. Thank you. Jesus is King!
One of my absolute favorite scenes.
Watching again and again, each time more layers are unveiled.
Praise His Holy Name. Adoni help all these Your workers to express Your thoughts in their works and fill their prayers with praise.
Love you all, can’t wait for new season❤
I can't wait until this weekend when I don't have work. I'm going to binge all episodes😍😍
Great plan, Ashley. Have plenty of tissues. 😊
@@TheChosenSeries the look that Jesus gives Matthew as he walks by his booth. You can literally feel the power of God hit your soul at that moment.. it's a feeling that can't be characterized with human words. Nothing that I could attempt to describe it would come close to giving it any form of the justice that it deserves. "A shock wave of the most powerful, and explosive love" is merely an understatement for it..
Wow I actually cried seeing them reconcile. That was powerful.
This is us the greatest forgiveness I ever heard, I cried 😢
Very beautiful! The journey to reconciliation is very difficult and painful but its one of the most beautiful human experiences.
Thank you so much for putting this together. What a change Jesus makes in families, in lives, in hearts. May it be so for all of us.
Jesus makes all things new ❤
It had me on tears 🥹 what a beautiful compilation journey of Mathews' story❤
Thank you Chosen Team for this beautiful montage of Matthew . 🕊 In this current season of Yom Kippur and true repentance , Matthew's transformation thru the love, guidance and protection of Yeshua is a wonder to behold visually ( as you are so adept and talented to present to the world ). THE WORD is the rock on what we have learned our Faith, but your visual presentations have put flesh and bones to our understanding ! 💗💟💞 We are breathlessly awaiting your release of Season 4 !!! Blessings, Grace and Shalom to you all .🙏🙏🙏
Jesus the King! As long as you're not stuck in a religious (spirit) you can't understand how important this beautiful TV series is! The church was never meant to be divided into denominations. Out of order WHO CARES, we know the Word and this is truly ANOINTED by God for such a time as this 🙏 it's a beautiful thing to imagine how it may have been. I thank you Dallas and the wonderful crew and actors for such a phenomenal job! I lost my husband last April so it's been a journey for myself and our 2 son's. He was so lost and committed suicide, but my kid's and I were already absolutely hooked on The Chosen. I have to say there are no words for how this show has helped us through it! We all ware our Chosen sweatshirts and every time we do SOMEONE always comments to us that they love the show as well! Believers sure, but mostly unbelievers who are finding their way to Jesus through watching! It ALWAYS turns into a conversation and sincere love by the time we part ways. It's truly a blessing how The Chosen has given common ground to share Jesus with strangers who would have mabey never even thought about it. God bless and keep you all 🙏❤️🔥
I’m sorry for your loss 😔. Will remember your dear family in my prayers 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️🕊
@daisyviluck7932 Well thank you so very much my sister, God bless you and yours as well 🙏
