Does "The Chosen" Make Jesus too Human? | The Belfast Podcast Ep. 92

In the second episode, reacting to the Peterson/Jenkins conversation, Daniel honed in on how the show depicts Jesus. Jenkins gives his philosophy of art and filmmaking and how he is attempting to "take Jesus down from the stained glass." Daniel argues that Dallas is actually updating the stained glass we have put Jesus on.

Luke and Daniel see the trend of modernism doing no favors for a vibrant view of scripture. Our goal is to widen the field of vision for modern people reading the Bible as we grapple with its ancient context, literary beauty, and symbolic underpinnings. You may have been taught to read texts with an eye for their literary and symbolic structures in English courses in high school and/or college, but rarely is this taught to seminary students or lay Christians alike when it comes to the Bible. We want to keep this eye for symbolism, repetition, and structure as we investigate the Biblical canon, linking it to modern and old examples that are extemporaneous yet connected to aid in giving the broader field of vision mentioned earlier. Come along with us on our journey to reread your bible for the first time. We hope that through the words of those who have come before us, we can give Western Christianity its imagination back.
