A nonprofit Christian organization has partnered up with “The Chosen” to bring the hit series to a billion people worldwide.
Stan Jantz, CEO of the Come and See Foundation, recently told CBN News about his group’s mission to “support ‘The Chosen’”, which recently released its fourth season, and plans to bring the show to one billion people.
“We have three … pillars, and one is to ensure that all seven seasons get made,” Jantz explained. “No. 2 is the translation piece, [to] translate every episode of every season into 600 languages, which is a huge task — never been done before [on] that scale.”
He added that the third effort is partnering with global ministries to take “The Chosen” to the “farthest places of the world.”
“We’re excited about… Bible engagement,” he said, noting many people end up opening the Word of God in light of watching “The Chosen.”
“YouVersion is finding a real uptick in their Bible engagement by showing ‘The Chosen’ on their apps,” he added.
As CBN News previously reported, “The Chosen” creator Dallas Jenkins recently published a video on Facebook regarding the show’s release of its fourth season, which released in theaters in February but has not yet been released to streaming due to a delay.
At the same time, however, Jantz shared that the upcoming season will be released into prisons through Prison Fellowship and to churches as well.
“We’re seeing that this is a tool that they’re using to engage these inmates and then, as chaplains, take them through that discipleship journey,” he said. “We’re thrilled.”
Come And See’s website also provides information on how churches can bring season to their respective congregations for free.
“One of our goals too is to keep this show free for all,” Jantz said regarding participating churches or prisons. “People can watch it and not have to pay for it.”
He hopes the Prison Fellowship partnership would impact both inmates and their families.
“I think that healing… can take place too of maybe there’s been resentment, or confusion, or whatever kind of happens when someone is incarcerated,” Jantz said.
