Since my time on set, I noticed on Facebook, The Chosen Fan Club page, that Tim Farley and Jenni Koll developed The Chosen business cards (view\/download below).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">I copied the template to my thumb drive and have had the local office supply store mass produce those cards. I have literally passed out at least 1,500 cards and thus the story begins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">I have been praying for our town to be turned upside down for Jesus for years.&nbsp; Then COVID hit. People, who were once not talking to you at all, are now starting up conversations just to talk to someone because of isolation!&nbsp; So, people would not think it odd when I would go on my daily walks and stop them on the sidewalk to ask if I could encourage them. 99% of the time, they would say, Yes! I would proceed to tell them about this new TV show about Jesus and those who knew Him. Then I would mention that I had the opportunity to be in it. I would tell&nbsp;about how the director, Dallas, was done with Hollywood, how Hollywood is not involved in it, and, now, how The Chosen is the number one crowd-funded project of its time and is in 180+ countries of the world. I also tell them how they can see it (you can too!):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-list\"><li>Download The Chosen app and watch for free<\/li><li>Go to their store <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thechosengifts.com\" target=\"_blank\">thechosengifts.com<\/a> and order a DVD<\/li><li>Watch on Roku or PureFlix or other streaming site<\/li><li>Go to their website <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thechosen.tv\" target=\"_blank\">thechosen.tv<\/a> click watch, scroll down and watch the show<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">I also pass out a tract called How to be Free from The Fear of Death by Ray Comfort. You can purchase at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.livingwaters.com\">livingwaters<\/a><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.livingwaters.com\" target=\"_blank\">.com<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">This all leads into discussions of Jesus and how He is The One who gives us peace. What a tool that God has given to us to spread Him to the Nations!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/www.aflc.org\/evangelism\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/ChosenCards.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of Embed of ChosenCards..\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-44ee755d-c41b-4878-b507-9bcbe8c38457\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aflc.org\/evangelism\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/ChosenCards.pdf\">ChosenCards<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aflc.org\/evangelism\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/ChosenCards.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-44ee755d-c41b-4878-b507-9bcbe8c38457\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2019, I had the opportunity to be an extra in an episode of The Chosen, a tv series about the life of Christ.
