(John Lanagan – The Word Like Fire) Reader, do you agree with Pastor Greg Laurie that “House of David” and “The Chosen” are great evangelistic opportunities? Yes? No? Leave your comments, pro or con, on the blog.
According to the Christian Post:
The new Prime Video series “House of David” is quickly becoming one of the most talked-about faith-based shows of the year — and for Pastor Greg Laurie, its release represents more than just good television. It’s an opportunity for cultural renewal, biblical literacy and, perhaps, revival on a massive scale.
“I think this is one of the greatest evangelistic opportunities in recent history,” Laurie told The Christian Post. “Millions of people through ‘House of David’ and ‘The Chosen’ are hearing Bible stories for the first time. No movie will ever take the place of the Gospel or the Bible, nor should it. But if it inspires people who’ve never read the Bible before or have no relationship with God to want to know more, then this is something we should be celebrating, not critiquing.”
Here’s what one commenter said: With all the lies and false teaching in “The Chosen,” I don’t see how anyone can find the true Jesus and the true Gospel. In my opinion, those who follow that series are just members of a cult believing whatever they are told. On my blog I expose a whole lot of error found in “The Chosen.” – Glenn Chatfield
