Why doesn't it say that you have to pay to watch the full interview? This is a "bait and switch" I don't appreciate seeing on a faith-related post. I'm happy to support you if I end up liking what I hear, but to not tell us up front is not professional nor kind.
Jonathan is an exceptional human being. To maintain a semblance of balance and humility must be a daily challenge. He is so gentle, sincere and gracious.
@krizilloo2538 - I think I get what you’re saying. It is a dream role, but as an actor is a heavy role. Emotionally taxing. He does it so well that his offering (the best way of thinking what the term ‘sacrifice’ means) seems to be the proper one. ❤
This is strange of me, but I am dreading Season 5 of The Chosen. I don’t want to see Jesus go through what I know is coming. In my head I know it is Jonathan the actor, of course; I expect it will be physically, emotionally, and spiritually taxing for him. I cried like a baby when I saw The Passion of the Christ. You know the real thing must have been even more horrific. I just love the Lord so much.
Dearest Jonathan, my heart broke as I listened to this interview with you. I wish I could be able to help you. My daughter made the comment that the name of the show is The Chosen and you have very well been a chosen vessel to touch and open the eyes of thousands upon thousands of souls through your work. Yet at the same time you also must carry this very heavy cross. With Jesus. That's actually a very lovely gift if we can understand the magnanimity of suffering. There is no glory without the cross. Don't forget the brief time in this world and remember to God's chosen there will one day be perfect, complete, never-ending, joy and fulfillment . Always ask for and God bless you with abundant Graces. Keep a chin up and know Our Lord and Lady have you covered if you but ask them. Please be assured of my prayers. God bless you, Johnathan.
@louisesnyder2714 such a beautiful comment. I remember thinking the same thing a few years ago. It has to be very hard to play this role, especially when you have faith like he has.
Many actors were able to portray beautifully the Jesus-God, with a special nod to Jim Caviziel. But Jonathan Roumie was the actor that was also able to fully capture the Jesus-man. May God bless your mission!
Bro, I love The Chosen. Truly I say to you, I have never been so invested in a Christian program. The message is on point, the comedy is on point is hilarious, Jesus is portrayed beautifully, and many other praises I can grant.
I laughed hard at the part where the Lord said "Too soon?" after healing that bandit with the broken leg!! That was great! Also, when He said "Big James and Little James. It can be your thing!"
My favorite part about Jonathan's portrayal of our Savior is how he conveys His mercy. I'm thinking of the scenes where Jesus heals both the leper and the bleeding woman. The way Jonathan interprets Jesus' understanding of their suffering, and then fully offers His willingness to heal them, is overwhelming. His face...the agape love and mercy, just reduce me to tears every time I watch it. We were all that leper before Christ...unclean and helpless. I saw Jonathan reciting the powerful Divine Mercy Chaplet somewhere on a video before and it makes sense that he is so in tune with how much we all need that mercy (for the sake of His sorrowful passion...).
So for the longest time I had not watched The Chosen. And every time I would be on CZcams this guy kept popping up asking us to pray with him and talking about the Hallow app… Now that I have watched The Chosen (this past month) I am such a fan of the show, and the man that played the most important man in my life! May the Lord bless and keep you both 🙏🏽✝️
I wonder if there will be a podcast featuring Jonathan Roumie, Jim Caviezel, and Robert Powell. Just give them an hour or so talking about their experiences in playing The Role and how it impacted their lives and those around them.
@@jeromevillanueva2207 From what I have read, Robert Powell got irritated by the fact that his face (as Jesus) is seen plastered on walls for religious purposes (such as prayers). I hope to see an interview with these three, though. God bless you.
Jonathan is so amazing he is so loved and respected by all of us his ability to be able to play the role of our Lord is beyond amazing and what a handsome and beautiful man he is with such a pure heart and soul God bless our Jonathan and all of these amazing actors playing in the chosen
Thanks for having Johnathan on! My family loves the Chosen and the fact that he is a devout Catholic. Praise be to God for the show for bringing more souls to the one true Faith ❤
@@diamondlou1 Apparently I do. I have seen both sides. What does that have to do with what I said? How does putting what is on Mr. Roumie’s shirt and claiming “one true faith” help? Yup - people can be crappy and make crappy remarks. And this shirt might be considered crappy and insulting to many non-Catholic Christians whose faith is true to them. Crappyness all the way around. Shame.
After thinking about this a bit more….what I see in the comments - is both Catholics and non-Catholics defending their faith and beliefs. One side is being told their faith is not the true faith - one comment said - there is no salvation outside the Catholic Church. So that side responds back with either questions or complaints about being told their faith is meaningless, but my faith is true - and found by Jesus himself. Doesn’t wearing this shirt - add to that? I am all for people being proud of their faith - and having a strong belief. And they have every right to talk about that. But why this way? It is arrogant. I don’t think Jesus approves of arrogance. From a man like Mr. Roumie - who is said to be humble and I believe preaches humility - this is a bad example of it.
@@user-wi3bt9xg5h With all due respect, I really don't think you've seen both sides. Since I converted 8 years ago, I really have been shocked by the lies I've read by so-called "Bible believing" Christians against the Catholic Church (e.g., we worship Mary & the saints, we're idolatrous, Catholics aren't real Christians, etc.). It's very sad. So Jonathon wears a shirt quoting a well-known Catholic writer...so what? The Eucharist is the source & summit of our faith, and he's right to defend it. And also in his defense, I don't think he ever said that Catholicism is the 'one true faith', but if you can provide a link proving otherwise, I'll be happy to apologise. Peace, brother (or sister).
@@diamondlou1 So let’s show respect for all denominations who follow the teaching of Jesus. You have seen disrespect for the Catholic Church. I have as well. But there is plenty of disrespect for non-Catholic Christians coming from your side as well. You haven’t seen that? And if you did, would you agree with it ? I don’t know. This saying and broadcasting it on a shirt is an example of that disrespect. And you are agreeing with it. And I don’t think I was saying that my example of one true faith - came from Mr. Roumie. But from other Catholics. But I assume that he - and you as well - would agree with that. Funny - I just read an Instagram share with a supposed quote from Mr. Roumie. In it he talks about humility and to have that you must be “open” and “accepting” or along those lines. How does this shirt and saying show humility as he explains it? Nothing open about it.
God bless you Johnathan and may Our Blessed Mother cover you and protect you with Her blessed mantle. You are in my 🙏 prayers 😊 pray, hope and don’t worry 🙏🕊️🙏
What a thoughtful interview! Both of you did extremely well. The question of how to handle celebrity was handled well too. Jonathan is asking how do I remain humble, while perhaps others are jut enjoying the celebrity. What a beautiful, humble man he is!
I loved the phrase:"I only think about that Jesus would do". I admire and love Jonathan!! He changed my relationship with Jesus!! I pray a lot for him 🙏🏻❤️
You are so very talented and I cannot imagine what you must feel when encountering fans and they are looking for “something” from you! I’m sure you are overwhelmed some days. You are doing such important work through THE CHOSEN. To the extent that people are converting to Christianity and to Catholicism BECAUSE OF YOU! (Sorry so intense 😉). I pray for you often. You are my narrator of the rosary whenever I can listen (mostly on my walks) on Hallow. God bless you each and every day, Jonathan, and may the Holy Spirit continue to guide you with the gifts you’ve been given 💕 🙏 ☀️
Dallas has said they will touch on this in later seasons but he isn't going to deep into the early church I too would love to see a full spin off and focus on the book of Acts.
@@TerrySilverhand I mean according to Dallas he plans there to be 7 seasons. The Crucifixion seems like it's going to be coming next season. Resurrection for 6. Season 7 may be all about Acts.
This will just wet everyone's whistle for the full interview. One of my all time favs. So great listening to both of you talk about the faith, fame, The Chosen and life. Thank you! ❤🙏🏻
))So grateful for your show. Jonathan Roumie has and is changing the World for good. He & Dallas Jenkins have and are doing God's work and sharing His love, mercy and compassion with the World. Bless them! One feels like they are actually living in the 1st Century when watching The Chosen.
He’s a very good mimic, which he says helped his portrayal of Bobby Jones (he watched a lot of footage of Jones playing golf and did his very best to imitate how Jones moved when he played).
As Jonathan talked about wanting a mentor and never really having one it made me think of similar times in my life and how the Lord used them to help me lean into Him alone and not pastors, mentors, articles, etc
I can't wait to see the rest of this interview. I was at the Hallow Conference in Steubenville which is probably when Jonathan did this interview. Matt, it was great seeing you there also.
Eu já orei por esse ator, ele está fazendo algo tão necessário e bem feito nesse momento em que o mundo está passando e é esperado que muitos fãs confundam aa coisas e esperem do ator ou peçam coisas ao Jonathan sem realizar que ele não é Jesus. E é muita pressão em cima dele e eu oro para que ele seja amparado e seja protegido pela espiritualidade e seja respeitado tb, que as pessoas lembrem dos limites e que ele e todos da equipe recebam essas orações de gratidão e proteção. Muito agradecida por essa série estar tendo esse sucesso e c tanta qualidade, agora, no mundo tão estressado e no limite. Nos traz fé, esperança e consolo nos dias atuais. Gratidão 🙏🏽🫂🙌🏽💙👏🏽🇧🇷✌🏽🕊🥰
The chosen helped change my life I have learned so much, helps me understand the Bible better ,if it hadn't been free I wouldn't of got to watch, God bless those who make it possible for everyone to see what it might of been like then and to help picture Jesus on earth like us . Been watching since 1st episode. Every actor that plays in this show is so committed to it wondering work, @Jonathan Roumie is my my favorite actor.
I’m getting confused, some people are saying that the shirt’s statement is disrespectful because it can divide other Christians, if he believes in the statement and another person disagrees with it, and get offended by it, then is that not the one doing the dividing?! To make it simpler If one chose not to believe in the truth of God’s own Word in the first place then they have chosen to be divided. Because God never lies and wouldn’t proclaim something that isn’t truth. A choice has been already made long ago before this sentence was even placed on the shirt. And just because there is disagreement doesn’t mean that there cannot be mutual respect for each person’s decision, we can still get along!
His speech at the National Eucharistic Congress was amazing. Reading the bread of life discourse as Jesus was very moving. But Jonathan describing the celebrity experience of playing Jesus sounds a bit like the Gospel accounts where Jesus couldn't go anywhere without crushing crowds surrounding him.
Love The Chosen. I watch each season over and over. Love all the cast, especially Jonathan's Jesus but Matthew is my fav discipline. Thanks for the interview.
Thank you for sharing this awesome interview, I'm sure this is a heavy load for Jonathan. His explanation of being a HUGE celebrity now is very understandable. What a humble and beautiful soul.God Bless you ,Jonathan ❤
This is for Jonathan. Perhaps the best way to detatch from the many things and people who come to you because of your role, is turn them to Jesus, the real Jesus, that is. I appreciate your honesty, sharing, that you forget what happened at any given time is totally normal, it happens to me and I am not a Chosen star.😊
a word for Jonathan that I hope it helps, the Holy Spirit, Jesus himself will guide you through that life of fame, he will equip you with the necessary wisdom to tackle any given problem or situation that you might run into in life. Also, it is good that you suffer throughout this process keeping in mind that Jesus was the man of sorrows and I know and you know that sorrow comes from the things that don’t necessarily go our way or want to happen in a certain way but He is building it up in you so that you can relate more and more to the real Jesus and to come to a certain grasp of how it truly was to be Jesus and it will help you to portray Him to the screen more accurately because the Holy Spirit will carry you through these trials since the real Jesus had the most of them. He will lead you through it brother. God bless you and may the Lord grant you strength to overcome it all in Jesus name. ✝️
Dearest Jonathan, I wish I knew how to contact you directly, because this 67-year-old Catholic woman tries to not react like the 14-year-old girl who met Donny Osmond back in the day every time I see you pop up on social media. I live in Indianapolis and was so excited when I heard you would be at the Eucharistic Congress that unfortunately I was unable to attend, but I did hear your talk on CZcams and it was marvelous. I pray the rosary often with you on Hallow and I always say "and peace be with you too, Jonathan". I know the Holy Spirit has the power to make it known to you that we all wish this for you.
The Chosen is very special because normally the greatest story ever told is produced in the format of a movie. But as a TV series, more time is dedicated to the finer points of the New Testament.
Jonathan representation of,Our Lord, is more humane, earthen, friendly, close, and gives a lot of context to understand better the scriptures. Glory to God. This also goes to all the actors.
I think Jonathan must feel sometimes lonely, but this is the price to come into another spiritual room. It is more about spirituallity then acting or being famous.
I would say that the type of celebrity that he is is extraordinarily unique. I mean he plays the founder of our religion, God on Earth, the greatest man to ever live, the most influential human had ever lived. Jesus has had such a profound effect on so many people Dad goes way deeper than just physical. So it's not like anyone has been affected by Jack Nicholson the way they've been affected by Jesus. I'm sure it's pretty heavy. He's doing an amazing job and in my opinion this is the greatest telling of jesus's story after that's ever been. It really makes you realize the man aspect of him.
Matt, thanks for the heads up about this before your talk at the Hallow Summit last weekend; excited to see the full interview. Lovely job with your talk, BTW. I'm too shy to approach those I admire, but your were delightful. What's the balloon bouncing game called in Australia? I forgot!
Jim Caviezel and Ted Neely, both of whom played our Lord Jesus in movies, have had deeply transformed lives also. Robert Powell, I don't honestly know. God bless everyone.
God works his ways into people’s hearts in the strangest ways we could never predict. Tv, film, even doctors, detectives, and other personal accounts all valid and all true. The world is a strange place.

Anyone else waiting for the day Jim Caviezel appears on pints? ✋ So glad Jonathan is back!!
I adore Jim Caviezel! He’s one of the people who inspired me to go back to Catholicism. I’ll be starting RCIA this year 😊
Amen!

Because God never lies and wouldn’t proclaim something that isn’t truth. A choice has been already made long ago before this sentence was even placed on the shirt. And just because there is disagreement doesn’t mean that there cannot be mutual respect for each person’s decision, we can still get along!

Roumi just has that look
a word for Jonathan that I hope it helps, the Holy Spirit, Jesus himself will guide you through that life of fame, he will equip you with the necessary wisdom to tackle any given problem or situation that you might run into in life. Also, it is good that you suffer throughout this process keeping in mind that Jesus was the man of sorrows and I know and you know that sorrow comes from the things that don’t necessarily go our way or want to happen in a certain way but He is building it up in you so that you can relate more and more to the real Jesus and to come to a certain grasp of how it truly was to be Jesus and it will help you to portray Him to the screen more accurately because the Holy Spirit will carry you through these trials since the real Jesus had the most of them. He will lead you through it brother. God bless you and may the Lord grant you strength to overcome it all in Jesus name. ✝️
Dearest Jonathan, I wish I knew how to contact you directly, because this 67-year-old Catholic woman tries to not react like the 14-year-old girl who met Donny Osmond back in the day every time I see you pop up on social media. I live in Indianapolis and was so excited when I heard you would be at the Eucharistic Congress that unfortunately I was unable to attend, but I did hear your talk on CZcams and it was marvelous. I pray the rosary often with you on Hallow and I always say "and peace be with you too, Jonathan". I know the Holy Spirit has the power to make it known to you that we all wish this for you.
The Chosen is very special because normally the greatest story ever told is produced in the format of a movie. But as a TV series, more time is dedicated to the finer points of the New Testament.
Yesss he’s got the tshirt on again!
Can you bring Alex from Voice of Reason to your channel. I would love to see what you guys discuss.
Currently watching Jonathan Roumie, terrific job. Now you need to interview Jim Caviezel (please, please, please)
Keep up the good work, both of you ❤
Jonathan representation of,Our Lord, is more humane, earthen, friendly, close, and gives a lot of context to understand better the scriptures. Glory to God. This also goes to all the actors.
Maravilhosa série. Bonito também é a ausência de arrogância no Jonhatan.
Can't wait season 5 ❤
I hope he doesn't get pidgeon-holed as "Oh, you're Jesus. Yeah, this role isn't for Jesus."
I think Jonathan must feel sometimes lonely, but this is the price to come into another spiritual room. It is more about spirituallity then acting or being famous.
I would say that the type of celebrity that he is is extraordinarily unique. I mean he plays the founder of our religion, God on Earth, the greatest man to ever live, the most influential human had ever lived. Jesus has had such a profound effect on so many people Dad goes way deeper than just physical. So it's not like anyone has been affected by Jack Nicholson the way they've been affected by Jesus. I'm sure it's pretty heavy. He's doing an amazing job and in my opinion this is the greatest telling of jesus's story after that's ever been. It really makes you realize the man aspect of him.
❤❤❤
Matt, thanks for the heads up about this before your talk at the Hallow Summit last weekend; excited to see the full interview. Lovely job with your talk, BTW. I'm too shy to approach those I admire, but your were delightful. What's the balloon bouncing game called in Australia? I forgot!
Great clip
I REALLY RESPECT HIS BELIEF AND PORTRAYAL OF JESUS. WISH HE WOULD COME TO TUPELO MS. QUES. WHAT IS YOUR UNDERSTANDING Of the Rapture\
Great
He wear that shirt on set of The Chosen? lol
Very interesting interview 👏👏👏👏
Jim Caviezel and Ted Neely, both of whom played our Lord Jesus in movies, have had deeply transformed lives also. Robert Powell, I don't honestly know. God bless everyone.
God works his ways into people’s hearts in the strangest ways we could never predict. Tv, film, even doctors, detectives, and other personal accounts all valid and all true. The world is a strange place.
Is that picture of George Pell on the shelf?
@@blodgette1 lolz...v funny 😆🙏
+JMJ+
I hope for future success for Jonathan. Wherever CHRIST wants Jonathan will be good, wonderful, and holy.
Oh boy! I’m going to hang out at LAX!!😃
He's an introvert so he's not looking for celebrity.
Johnathan sounds like Jesus' 13th disciple.
Imagine getting the nickname Jesus
I'm a huge fan. Maybe someday I'll meet you.
will the full interview ever be out for those of us that cannot afford to support the channel? I sure hope so!
Surely it will, yeah.
@vickyhess3841 It'll be here in a couple of weeks or so, according to Matt. Search for it later.
@@buzon1658 thanks for this info.
Maybe Jesus is his mentor. He used to go and pray on his own. He would definitely understand.
Jonathan Roumie, Cliff Curtis, and Jeremy Sisto are the best Jesus actors
Have you watched Jesus of Nazareth by Franco Zefferelli with Robert Powell? It’s beautiful.
@@mjLes18 I interviewed Dr. Marc Goodacre about Jesus films on my channel
