The Choice (S3 Recap): Sustenance

Ghost and Ashe in America wrap season three of The Chosen with a recap episode that finally ties up the storylines they ran out of room for. Shula and Barnaby and what their quiet, ardent faith says about the difference between believing without seeing and walking next to Jesus and still missing it. Little James and why his unhealed leg might be the most powerful testimony in the bunch. Eden and Simon's grief after the miscarriage, and the difference between doubting God and being resentful at him. And the moment Simon admits, out loud, that what he is really afraid of is Jesus choosing them. Then the conversation turns to the tassels. The old man Matthew arrested, who bought up his family's debt before dying so they would be free. Mary explaining to Matthew that the tassels were never about cloth, they were about faith. The Hellenistic visitor Shmuel berates for fashion violations before stealing his witness. Atticus identifying a horse breed and a rider's status in one glance. And Chris Paul's idea of false decorum as the through line for what the Pharisees and the modern world keep getting wrong.
