The Chosen - The Last Supper - episode 1

 

Awesome. They do such a good job of bringing them all to life and making them real. I am torn between wanting to see more and dreading it since I know how painful it will be, and they're making it so real, it's even harder. Beautifully made and filmed.

The Chosen is back for Holy Week, the most pivotal week in human history. Tables are turned. Friends are betrayed. And powerful leaders plot the death of Jesus. The Chosen: Last Supper is the must see event of the Easter season.

The table is set.

The people of Israel welcome Jesus as king while his disciples anticipate his crowning.

But—instead of confronting Rome—he turns the tables on the Jewish religious festival. Their power threatened, the country’s religious and political leaders will go to any length to ensure this Passover meal is Jesus’ last.

Shot in a beautiful cinematic format, The Chosen: Last Supper brings the most pivotal week in history to audiences in this special three-part theatrical release.

The Last Supper from Pinnacle Peak Pictures

 

I didn't like this. Scripture is strong enough to stand on its own. In the interest of illustration and explanation, they embellished on and added to scripture. I suppose that it might not do harm as it does tell the story. But I wasn't moved by it because it added to and left out the true, exact story. I suggest that you read the bible to get the story from there.

The Chosen, Season 4 Episodes 7 & 8

 

Episode 7

Jesus performs a miracle and heals Lazarus at Bethany after a 4 day delay - after he had died and has started to decompose - and brings him back to life. All the apostles are confused and search for the meaning and purpose of this one man being raised again. This is the last of the more carefree time of Jesus travelling and teaching the people. He knows it's end of His time, and you can feel it. The Sadducee who witnessed the resurrection of Lazarus ran quickly back to Jerusalem to tell the other Jewish leaders that Jesus had now gone too far. They're willing to join with the Romans in order to punish Jesus and his followers. There are many things to be learned by the healing and rising of Lazarus - in the delay, in the faith of the people who are close to them all, and in the resurrection of a man.

Episode 8 

Confusion over Lazarus continues. Events leading up to Jesus going into Jerusalem on what will in later days be known as Palm Sunday. There are still conflicts among the apostles and Jewish leaders. Jesus is laying it out and making it plain that He is going to die. There is a lot of turmoil, but His true believers make way for Him to come into the city - in the way that fulfills prophesy. 

I think that this series is very important in bringing the message of Jesus and our salvation to everyone. I don't think that you can watch it and not be moved by it. I don't like where some things are changed from the bible, so I strongly feel that you should read a bible and compare. It's very important to let the true bible facts sink into your life and mind and let them guide you. The overall message comes through though, and it is about the people whom Jesus chose to be with Him throughout this time in His life on Earth. It's also about the people who are chosen to spend eternity in heaven with Him.

This looks like it will be quite impactful. Certainly, the other seasons have been amazing in showing the life of Jesus and the people He chose to surround Him, but this season is getting into the most sorrowful part of His life. We will be watching the series for sure!

Journey to Bethlehem an Affirm Film

 

There's brand new music in this film, Journey to Bethlehem, starring Antonio Banderas, Milo Manheim, and more.

Gorgeously filmed and acted, beautiful scenery and sets, costumes. Moments of pure beauty. They try to bring to life the story of Mary and Joseph, to help you to feel some of what they might have felt when gifted with this amazing blessing. 

We feel that they used too much creative license, it will anger a true bible scholar. A disclaimer was put at the end of the movie. People should read the bible to get the true story. It's a great way to start a discussion.

ROUTE 60 trailer

This looks like it is very interesting and full of good information. From what the trailer shows, it's beautifully filmed and appointed. We're looking forward to seeing this new film.

A documentary about Israel's most famous route, hosted by Secretary Mike Pompeo and Ambassador David Friedman. The film is being released in theaters on 9/18-19/23 only. 

Synopsis: 

Carving through the heart of the Promised Land is the biblical spine of Israel, sometimes referred to as the Path of the Patriarchs and officially designated as Route 60. A highway of deep historical significance while often the scene of unrest and violence, this 146-mile road of asphalt and concrete begins in Nazareth, Israel’s largest Arab city, and ends in Beersheba, one of Israel’s high-tech centers. Running north to south, Route 60 connects ancient Israel with modern Israel, Jews and Christians with Muslims, and Israelis with Palestinians.

The Last Man At The Inn by R. William Bennett

One man's quest to believe.

This brings alive the story of Jesus, from His birth to crucifixion, through the eyes of a man named Simon.  Simon was in Bethlehem when Jesus was born, in fact he was the reason that there was no room at the in, because he didn't give up his place for the young couple and they were forced to take shelter in a stable. After hearing about Jesus birth there that night, he Simon felt bad about not giving up his room. Simon also struggled with all that he learned of Jesus through the years, listening but not joining in with those who taught about Jesus, including Simon's own sons. But in the end he finally came around and truly became part of the story of Jesus - a time at His crucifixion that will be remembered through the ages. Well written story of a real human, struggling to understand what Jesus, His life and teachings meant to him. Excellent read - well worth your time.

The Time of Jacob's Trouble by Donna VanLiere

Set in New York and Israel at the time of the Rapture, seen from the eyes of a few different people who were not taken. There is much confusion as people try to sort out what has happened. One of the characters is in a cemetery and sees the graves around him burst open, the person being buried disappears. Others have people they know, including some family, disappear. These people had tried to give them the message that Jesus would be coming, but they didn't believe. Now they can see they were being told the truth. Two of the men are Jews and are visited by witnesses and told they are chosen as part of the 144,000 messianic Jews.  Interesting story that is excellent at showing prophesy.  I ate this right up, greatly looking forward to picking it up again each time. The story is a quick read, the rest of the book is very detailed information with scripture that explains how the Bible tells the prophecy in Revelations and many other passages. A fabulous manual for now and for those who will be left behind. I'm ready! Keep looking up, the time is close. It could happen at any time! Donna shows how many of today's world events fit right into the end times prophecies. Looking forward to future stories!

Daughters of Northern Shores by Joanne Bischof

". . . a washing that only grief could do. One that cleansed away a fragile sort of rest so that what remained was the courage to seek joy and peace in the arms of the Lord amid a storm."

1894-95 Virginia.  The second book of the series. You can enjoy this story without reading the first book, but you won't get the true depth of the feelings and really understand the why of it all. The men's heritage is Norway, and they're proud of Norse bloodlines. The girls come from different areas (Aven is from Ireland). Haakan, one of the brothers, has been away after the explosive exit he made in the previous book. He is tortured by what had happened, and looks for relief in different outlets. Addiction runs in some members of this family. He has been a sailor, sailing to many different countries, but loving the land of their heritage the most. He decides to go back home to Virginia and try to make things right with his family, only to learn that his brother Thor is seriously ill. The struggle to rid themselves of the feuding neighbors, fighting for their very lives, combined with the stress of the previous happenings is told with such a great depth. The author describes what it is like for a deaf person and addiction so thoroughly, in such detail, that it tears you apart. But lessons in faith and how God uses even the dark places in our lives for good weave throughout this book. I love this series. It will make a wonderful addition to any library!

Out of the Ashes by Tracie Peterson; Kimberley Woodhouse

We all seem to know, or know of someone, who has been through a time of hardship and/or sorrow who thinks there could not be a caring God to have let these things happen. What then needs to be learned is that He is there, a caring Father, to see us through it and trust in Him for all of our care. We have to learn that yes we are unworthy, but Jesus took our place and died for us. And that we need to be glad of that and allow ourselves to be set free. To reach out and know that the love is there for us to take. In this story there are two young people who were forced to part, each have their own hardship, but then later come back together. Learning to cope and trust doesn't come easy, but in this place they are guided and taught, letting each love again.

Once Upon a Christmas by Rosanne Croft, Linda Reinhardt, Sharon Bernash Smith

Mega book of stories. 55 very short stories about the true meaning of Christmas, the peace and learning process to realize it. You will find many gems here, historical to present day. You might want to start at the beginning of December and read just a couple at a time, like devotionals, giving yourself time to think about them. They're real life examples, with real people, and maybe a few angels. Great if you just want inspirational very short reads.
