Viewers of “The Chosen” Season 4 continue to find the series compelling.

Peter Wehner, writing for The Atlantic, described himself as “a very unlikely fan of ‘The Chosen.’” He eschewed most entertainment depicting Jesus because he “didn’t want to have a particular contemporary actor in mind when I imagined Jesus, because it would surely distort my understanding.”

Wehner gave “The Chosen” a shot and said “unlike a lot of Christian entertainment, ‘The Chosen’ is well produced and well written, the dialogue engaging and at times gripping, the acting across-the-board superb.”

“Roumie humanizes Jesus in a beautiful way. He’s good company; he smiles and laughs and enters into the world of those around him. People feel seen by him. He shows gentleness and kindness; he feels grief and pain.”
