Christmas with the Chosen: The Messengers

At the time I found out this movie would be in theatre, I was ecstatic, I told my 4 year old I was going to watch a movie that is the true story of Christmas. To my surprise, this "movie" was a cinematic event unlike any other I have seen. The music was stunning and uplifting, the presence of God, I could feel right next to me, the monologs were genius, and each one spoke to my soul and told me I must listen again and again. Then, right when I was starting to wonder if there would be a "movie" the chosen began. Captivating as it always is, the story unfolded in a way I have never seen done before. Humorous, devoted, beautiful, and bringing glory to the birth of Jesus. Then, it ended; and my hunger for more of my saviors story left me upset, upset because I wasn't ready to leave the presence of God. Upset because the production in its entirety brang you right into that amazing moment in time, as if a time capsul spilt out across the screen and I could almost touch the walls of Bethlehem. I wanted more. We all wanted more. As I left the theater, my husband brang me the vision I had been to distracted by my love for the story to see. The entire message of "The messengers" ... WE are the messengers. We are the ones who need to share the truth with the world, the truth that this isn't the end, the truth that if we know Jesus, we are free. Yes, I heard the message while watching the movie... but when my husband said it to me out loud, it made it all clear to me, and the movie in its entirety became brilliant. From wonderful and beautiful. To absolutely brilliant. Its a must see, and I could explain for hours on what this movie truly was and what it meant to me. But simply stated- well done Dallas Jenkins and his amazing team. Thank you for bringing Jesus to the television and thank you for this one of a kind epic cinematic experience. I can not wait to buy the movie and watch it .. probably monthly.

This was the best new Christmas movie I'll see this year! You've knocked it out of the park for certain. Thank you for such a quality program. The music was awesome! So many groups, some I've heard of and a few new ones for me as well.

It was to me, a wonderful and worshipful experience honoring the true meaning of the season! Go Tell it! For Unto us a Child Is Born! A SON IS GIVEN! God With us-WOW! Very Impactful- loved it!

Just finished watching the 7pm showing and it was absolutely phenomenal. I went with my youngest who is 12 and he absolutely loved it as well. The music performances were anazing. Most of all it was moving to see the humble beginning of Jesus. Definitely can't wait to watch it again with the rest of my family.

Just thought it would be more of a movie instead of a worshiping service , and I believe others thought the same. Although I did enjoy it all, music was just a little long for me. I'm thinking since I've seen both seasons. The arriving of Jesus. Along with the fish symbol between the two men , I cried. Some ppl will get others maybe later.
