This is the official companion study to Season 1 of The Chosen, the groundbreaking television series about the life of Jesus. What Does It Mean to Be Chosen? parallels each episode, connecting readers to the Bible in a brand-new way. It includes:
- A deeper look at Isaiah 43 and its fulfillment in Jesus and the lives of His followers (including us!)
- Script excerpts, quotes, and illustrations from the show
- Guiding questions for groups or individuals
Being chosen by Jesus has beautiful and far-reaching implications—although it says even more about the Chooser than the choosees. We are loved because He's love. We are saved because He's merciful. We belong to the family of God because Jesus invites us, making the Bible and all its promises as true for us today as it was for God’s chosen nation.
What does it actually mean to be Chosen? To answer that question, we’re going Old school—Testament that is—which leads us back to the New. Which always leads us directly to Jesus.

Excited to rewatch Season One of The Chosen using the study guide! Several work friends have also purchased this guide, and we hope to have discussions based on our reading/watching experience. Thank you for a quality product! ❤️

Good info!

We're going through the first season with a group here at church, and the discussion guide is so helpful in providing prompts for conversation as well as insights we hadn't considered. We love it, thank you!

Starting an at home study with my Bible Study Buddies May 18th and we are all excited about it, 4 of them have not seen the show yet, so it will be great experiencing it with them for the first time. I am having them all do,the introduction questions before we get together, then we will go over them and watch first episode together. YAY!
Cindy R.
I couldn’t imagine that The Chosen could get any better BUT a this study adds much more depth to the project. It is personal, comprehensive and laden with Scripture, history and opportunities for present day application. It is one of the best studies I have done and I am a Bible Study nerd :-) Thank you!!!
Angela L.
Helpful study guide.

Wanted to spread the word and thought your series was the perfect way to do it. I started a Bible Study for my family. We get together Friday nights (8 of us so far) and have dinner, watch an episode and have discussion. Last night was the first night I used the Study Guide and it led to some meaningful discussions. Love the series, Jonathan does a great job of portraying Jesus, looking forward to more of the episodes. May God bless for your work.
Aloha from Hawaii, Angela Rivera

Yes ‼️All Chosen fans should get this set! Amazing, the insight, the details, the spiritual applications to your life! Love Love Love this show! Thank you Chosen actors, production crew, Dallas, everyone associated with the show. God is leading you “for such a time as this”!
Roger K.
Sure helps us dig into the Bible more.
Pamela E.
I haven’t started using the study yet but I’m looking forward to it!
Kimberley E.
I am doing it by myself and find it very relatable.
Enjoying it very much along with all my other Chosen items .❤
I am not writing in it because I am writing on a piece of paper planning to do it again in time and see how my answers may change .
Think that will be an interesting thing to see the growth.
I recommend the devotionals as well .
Rachel P.
If you love the show you will love this book! It made me appreciate the creativeness of the show so much more. Seeing in black and white which scriptures they drew from for episodes or character, and seeing on screen what they turned it into, just wow! It is so well written and teaches you a lot more from the Bible than you see on the show. It’s great for both new believes and long time Christ followers. I will definitely be buying one for each season when they become available.
Victoria C.
Along with the devotional books this study guide has been a blessing! So many confirmations have been received while reading.
Heather K.
Great book/study
Jeremy S.
Excellent! It is like the College Course on the Chosen. So much wonderful information to help anyone to further understand the content of each episode. Keep it coming - so, so good!
Valerie F.
Have shared with my church that I have both Season 1 and this bible study and they might be interested in do it at some point. I am starting it with my husband.
Gloria R.
Love, Love, Love the movie series. Thank you! You were meant and Chosen to bring this work, His work, forth to the world. These were purchased for gifts for my adult nieces who are just starting to emerge themselves in the gospel.
Kathleen B.
Unfortunately, this was a replacement for one that got a tooth hole in it from my dog. When the new one arrived it came with a bigger hole under the armpit (bobbin ran out of thread, so a two inch hole...). Now it's taking forever to get a response on how to return the item for yet another replacement -- but the T-shirt is AWESOME when it doesn't have a hole in it:-)
Cindy S.
I love how a lot of scriptures from the old and new testaments are used. The design of the book is beautiful. It is helping me go deeper into the Bible.
Sandi W.
I will be the facilitator for our next Ladies Bible Study group using The Chosen, thus I am currently reviewing the Bible Study Guide. It is well written and the questions it ponders are very thought provoking. The Study guide has led me into much deeper study and I am extremely excited to lead our great group of ladies in The Chosen study
Marlene P.
Thank you!!!
Terri M.
Wonderful
Airiell H.
This is such an awesome idea to go along with the episodes! Our friends and us have never done a Bible study but really wanted to. Once we saw this we knew we had to get it and start the series over again. Thank you!!!
Donna H.
Digging deeper into scripture with the series is wonderful! Love it!
Gretchen H.
Lives up to the quality of the show!
Peggy B.
I have joined a Bible Study using your book. I have read through it once and it has raised so many questions. I hope they will be answered in the course of the Bible study.
Susan Chawn H.
I have recently chosen to follow Jesus. What does it mean to be chosen has help in my understanding of what it all means.
Ana S.
So beautiful!
Laura W.
Can’t put it down. Ignited a desire to know more about Jesus! Thank you!
Marlyce L.
We are using the dvd and study for a women’s Bible Study . It is catching their interest and they want to continue.
Darolyn D.
I am getting a lot out of it even though I have been a Bible student for many years.
Martha B.
Have only read the first 30 pages but loving every minute of it. Watched the first season already but can’t wait to get the CD to watch the whole series again!! Life changing!!
Duane S.
Nice book!
Paul F.
THIS IS A "MUST" TO ACCOMPANY THE DVD. IT'S ONE THING TO WATCH THIS POWERFUL SERIES...BUT IT BRINGS IT EVEN MORE ALIVE INTO THE PRESENT WHEN YOU DISCUSS IT, USING THE STUDY GUIDE. POWERFUL!! WONDERFUL!!
Cindy W.
Not quite finished with it yet. but so far im enjoying it.
Judith H.
We will be using this, along with the videos for a small group women's Bible Study. After viewing all of Season 1, and some of season 2, I knew God was telling me to do this for a summer study. We are all looking forward to it.
I looked at the Book, and was very pleased with what I read.
Thank you for all you have done to get the "Chosen" out there for people to see.
I pray that many will come to the Lord as a result of seeing it.
Evonne C.
I've watched Season 1 many times, and I enjoy watching each episode before doing the study in the book. I love the way this series brings Jesus' humanity to life. It really speaks to my heart.
Carlette B.
Just started intro but am so excited to get into the actual body of it.
Andrea R G.
Thanks Chosen for having a little more depth to a already deep story. The studybook meets people where they are at on their personal journey with Jesus. Whether just starting out or been a Christian for 30 or more years, like I have. Always something more we can learn.
Jesus is looking for ears to hear and hearts willing to learn.
Debra O.
Live the Chosen Dvd and the bible study. Doing the study as a family is wonderful.
Lori P.
I'm so excited about the Bible study and want to share it with others. I love how it corresponds with season 1 of The Chosen, so you don't have to purchase videos like so many other studies.
Jennifer P.
Just love all products from The Chosen!
Debi C.
Just have begun to flip through and so far am liking what I'm reading. We will be using this in a group study. What a great tool!
Pamela N.
It's beautifully done. My only problem is it's very hard to read the very light green side notes.
Rocio M.
Julie S.
Can’t wait for the next one! ❤️
Susan S.
I have only just begun to follow this study and already I am deepening my thoughts on the messages in the Holy Bible. How can this be? I've been studying it for over 60 years yet my mind is opening up to understand more fully the words from Our Lord. What a wonderful experience. What a amazing gift from God.
Sherry D.
I absolutely love this series and the book just adds the icing to the cake!!!
Javier J.
Amazing Bible study that allows the reader to view the lives of Bible characters in a great perspective.
Sheri B.
It’s a true blessing!! Thank you and God Bless you!
Jessica S.
Received within just a few days. Ready to dive into it.
Crystal H.
This study, along with the show has really helped answer questions ive had that have caused doubts in the past and has made it easier to understand the language in the Bible. All of the above has helped me build a closer relationship with our Lord!

I really love how it draws you in to the world where the Chosen takes place. Maps, timeline, and brief summary of the main characters bring the historic events and people to life...again.
DONNA G.
Just started this recently. I love it so far and hope to use to do a Bible study with friends!
Karen C G.
Just starting the Bible Study and love the material. The content, scriptures, timeline, maps, the size and visual appearance is ideal. The depth of knowing What Does It Mean to Be Chosen is a gift! Thank you for putting this together.
Mary Ann M.
I just love your whole series and this book! Thank you
Dawanna W.

It gives great insight.
Carrie D.
I have gone through about a third of the book and it's really great! I can see how it would be very effective in a group study. Love it!
Ann A.
I'm loving g the interactive Bible study! It makes me feel like I was actually there first hand with Jesus and his disciples! Great job! ❤️
Lisa D.
The design and quality of the products are great!!

The sweatshirt is so soft and very roomy. I love it! So very comfortable and of course I love the fish motif of swimming against the current! Love the teal color! The shirt is a gift for my preacher son! I know he’ll love it!
Claudia G.
Still in the process of reading it, but I love it so far, the info and the questionnaire at the end of each chapter. It really makes you think/ meditate on the Word of God.
Rita C.
Goes perfect with my daily reading of my Bible
Sandra M.
I bought this for my Mother's Day present. Can hardly wait to dive in!

Hope to use for a Sunday School class
Christopher R.
After having watched all available episodes, when I found out there was a study guide, I jumped at the chance to use this series as curriculum for the "High School Guys Group" I lead weekly. The material in the study guide provides an insightful and provocative perspective into the videos. We've watched the Pilot and first two episodes together, and the reactions and the discussion have been tremendous. High school guys are telling me that every episode so far has given them "goose bumps!" What an exciting response to the Gospel (as related in The Chosen). Have already ordered more books!!!
Christine I.
I belong to 2 Bible Studies in my parish this is just another way I explore Jesus’s life and the Apostles
Excellent book
Vickie R.
Hadn't really got started good yet but I'm going
Bev J.
Ordered enough to do group study with friends ! Great way to share !!
Pam P.
It's amazing. I am going to do the bible study with my 3 adult daughters. We are all excited to get started.
CR C.
I ordered this one for my son, now I’m going to order another one for me.
Can you please make a car decal of the fish swimming.
Beth S.
I love how this study focuses on four of the main characters in the show and relates the episode to Scripture and the dialog. This study is very relatable and helpful. Not overly deep either as many studies are. If you love The Chosen as I do, you will enjoy this study immensely.
Ann B.
Love what I've read so far, can't wait to really dive into it!
Celeste S.
Purchased for my cousin who is seeking the Lord. Perfect item to give her in her studies! A huge blessing!
Marilyn B.
Dustin F.
I haven’t started this study yet, but can’t wait to do so! I flipped through and it looks awesome!
Dana D.
My sister got this when it first came out and raved about it - so I knew I had to get one too. Love the format/questions and how it really makes you think about your relationship to Jesus and His Teachings and how they apply to your life. Such a great "help" for everyday spiritual encouragement.
Martha T.
I was surprised. It is a thought provoking bible study. It asks how you in comparison to what is written understand context related to yourself. A first for me. I am enjoying both the chosen and now the bible study.
