‘The Chosen’ Season 4 Continues Theater Launch With Gripping Trailer
The Chosen season 4 has already brought lots of tears and thrills to audiences with the release of “The Chosen” season 4 in theaters.
With episodes 1-3, audiences saw the inevitable fate of John the Baptist, heated debates with the Pharisees as they decide to take further actions into their hands and James and John’s desire to receive earthly blessing from Jesus. Now, The Chosen is playing episodes 4-6, teasing audiences with the escalation of Jesus’ impending death and resurrection with their latest trailer.
Alluding to Matthew 24 where Jesus describes the passing away of this life and His eternal nature as the Word, audiences see the ultimate distress weighing down on Him. The famous scene of Mary and Martha serving and listening to Jesus also points to the show being one step closer to when Jesus will do the ultimate act of raising Lazarus from the dead.

God sees far beyond what our limited minds can comprehend. For the most part, whenever we hear Joshua’s words, “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord,” (Josh. 24:15), we think of our spouses, our children, maybe even our grandchildren. God sees generations.

For I was ashamed to ask the king for an escort of foot and horse soldiers to help us against the enemy on the way, because we had spoken to the king, saying, “The hand of our God is upon all who seek Him for good, but His power and His wrath are against all who forsake Him.” So we fasted and sought our God for this, and He was moved by our prayers.
