Over the last few decades, in our culture, it’s almost been this move-away from being able to have open conversations. There is this fear that people get offended so easily and it seems like there’s a lot of things that we can’t talk about. And that’s unfortunate because there’s so many conversations that we could be having with others if we were willing to have an open mind and an open dialogue, without necessarily worrying about offending others.  

One of these types of discussions that have become taboo-like in our culture, are around God and religion. That’s why today, we invited someone that is literally influencing the world through the short films, movies, and TV series that he produces and are faith-based. 

Dallas Jenkins is the Producer and Director of “The Chosen” – the first-ever multi-seasoned show about the life of Christ. This series was born out of Dallas’s biggest career disappointment, and it encompasses the Gospels in the Bible and shares a beautiful message of hope. The first season had just reached 32 million views and Dallas and his team plan to do seven more seasons and touch on a billion people’s souls.
