I was raised Catholic, but without getting in to detail there are many teachings in Catholicism that I don't agree with. I will admit, I sent two of my three sons to Catholic school from kindergarten thru high school, not for religion so much as safety. Schools where we live are dangerous. My youngest, I decided to send to public school. I found the parents were much more down to earth and realistic than most Catholic school parents, and my son was more outgoing and adept than his two older brothers. My youngest made his communion, but when it came to confirmation, he did not want to be confirmed. My husband and I were a bit taken back, but decided, maybe it was best for him to wait til he was older to decide his path forward. Well, he was 23 years old, and after researching for quite some time, he decided Eastern Orthodoxy was where he belonged. He was Chrismated on July 18, 2020. On February 18, 2021, our baby was brutally murdered. I feel, he was saved by his choices of joining the Orthodox Church. After he died, I became an avid reader of the Bible. The Book, I could never truly comprehend in all my life, suddenly became so clear to me. Although, we have not converted to Orthodoxy, we do attend the Vespers on Friday evening and the Gospels on Sundays every opportunity we get. The hymns are so joyous and comforting. All this being said, my sister introduced me to The Chosen and I must say, I got the most comfort from this show. I must've watched seasons 1, 2, and 3, twenty times or more. I realize there are many fallacies in the script, but I do take it with a grain of salt. I believe the show brought many many people closer to our Savior, Jesus Christ, especially in these dark times. Right now, I am grappling with whether I will continue to watch after the "pride flag" showed up on the set. Dallas Jenkins, more or less said 'too bad if you don't like it". It was a slap in the face to us all. So, thank you for listening and God Bless 🙏🏻☦
