Scripture-First Gospel Journey

Walking with Jesus

Read the biblical account first. Then use a carefully selected scene from The Chosen to observe, discuss, and compare what the production shows with what Scripture actually says.

New to the journey?

Prepare before you begin walking.

Start with four foundation lessons exploring why we have four Gospels, who Jesus really is, what following Him requires, and how to read the Gospel accounts faithfully.

Recommended starting point: Complete Preparing to Walk with Jesus, then continue here with the 21-week Gospel journey. The series follows Jesus broadly through the Gospel story while allowing a few intentional thematic interludes.

The foundation

Scripture leads every lesson.

The visual scene is a discussion tool, not a replacement for the Bible. Every lesson identifies the biblical connection, creative additions, precise start and stop cues, and a Scripture check.

Use the study at your own pace. Follow the complete lesson flow or select the sections that serve your personal study, family, class, or group. No full episode is required.

After the journey

The 21-week journey ends before Easter, so a four-lesson companion finale continues from the Last Supper through Gethsemane, the crucifixion, and the resurrection without changing the original series.

Optional Easter finale: Walking with Jesus: The Cross and the Empty Tomb can follow Week 21 or be used independently during Lent and Holy Week.

A visual lens with biblical guardrails

Watch less. Observe more.

Use each short scene cue, then return to the text and ask what is biblical, what is creatively imagined, and what the scene helps you notice about Jesus.
