FREE WATCH PARTY FOR THE CHOSEN TV SERIES

The Church Family at Blaine Christian Church would like to invite our entire community to come to the church to watch the award winning,  first ever multi-season TV show about Jesus and His disciples called  THE  CHOSEN.

We will show all 16 episodes from Season 1 and 2 over an 8 week period on Sunday nights, beginning Sunday, June 12th, at 6 pm.  For those who want to remain after the showing each night, there will be a short time for discussion.  This is free to the public, is suitable for adults and teens, and we encourage you to invite friends and family.

THE  CHOSEN  portrays Jesus’ time on earth through the eyes of those who met him - a charismatic fisherman struggling with debt, a troubled woman wrestling with demons, a gifted accountant ostracized from his family and people.

No matter where you are in your life - if you are curious about Jesus, or maybe someone who has encountered Jesus after a horrific past, or you’re like Nicodemus and have been serving God all your life - COME  AND  SEE.

Even if you’ve already seen THE  CHOSEN, please come and be part of the viewing, share in the discussions, and bring your friends and neighbors.

This is the first TV show of its kind, presenting the life of Christ over multiple seasons (seven seasons total are being planned).  This show is being created outside of the Hollywood system, is completely crowd-funded, and has broken all records by bringing in more donations than any other media project ever.  It is also the first series to be launched in every country simultaneously (with over 61 million views, so far, in 156 countries in several different languages), and it is being praised for its accurate and engaging storytelling.

Blaine Christian Church is located at 7018 Putney Road (corner of Joyfield and Putney Roads), in Arcadia.

If you have questions, or need more information or directions, please call or text Cathy Bodell, 231/871-1553, or email her at bbandcb@att.net.  Information will also on Blaine’s website - blainechristianchurch.org, or on Facebook.com/ BlaineChristianChurch.

You are also welcome to get to know the Blaine Christian Church family during our summer service times:  Sunday mornings at 8:30 am (contemporary), or at 10 am (blended).

If you want more information about THE  CHOSEN, go to:  www.thechosen.tv
