For years, Karla Cameron, a retired Dr Pepper executive in Georgia, taught Bible-study classes to teen-agers, a task that became more challenging during the COVID-19 pandemic. She wanted to show videos to her students, but most of the Biblical movies she found had cheesy writing, bad acting, and costumes with visible zippers. One day, she learned about a new television program that told the story of Jesus and his disciples. It was called "The Chosen," and blog posts praised the show for its authenticity and its humanity.
