You are called to be different.
As important as it is to know about and relate to key characters in the Bible, it's more important to understand the lengths to which Jesus has gone to relate to you. That's the purpose of every person's story: to aid in the supernatural revelation of Jesus Christ. Every detail matters. Every exchange deserves thorough examination and deep contemplation. And through the mess, you'll begin to see Him more clearly. Jesus prays for you, forgives and renews you, guides and keeps you.
In The Chosen – Book Two, encounter Jesus the way His followers did. Explore their touching backstories. Written to accompany the hit multi-season series, each of these forty devotions contains a Scripture, a unique look into a Gospel story, suggestions for prayer, and questions that lead you further in your relationship with Christ.
What does it mean to really follow Him? To place your identity in Him. To be surrendered to His will and His way. To go where He goes and do the things He does. To be different in all the wonderful ways He was different. He knows your needs. He sees your suffering. He understands your pain. And He is perfect love, which means when life causes your soul to faint and your faith to fail, Jesus will not. He is the lover of your soul.
