Did you grow up learning about Bible stories through Sunday school felt boards while holding your storybook picture Bible? Does your grandmother have a picture of blonde-haired, blue-eyed Jesus hanging in her home? Have you watched Mel Gibson's The Passion or Dallas Jenkins' The Chosen and felt as if it helped you to better connect with Jesus' humanity?In this episode, we dive deep into the scope of the Second Commandment - "You shall not make for yourself an idol" - exploring both what Scripture has to say and how it was viewed historically. From Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 4, we unpack God's prohibition against fashioning representations of Himself, including the two-fold command against making and worshiping them. We trace the regulative principle of worship through church history: from early Christian symbols to the Roman Catholic veneration of images, the Reformers' ban under Calvin and the Puritans, and its modern relaxation.Drawing on the golden calf in Exodus 32, we see how "good" intentions don't excuse transgression, as God declares His jealousy and promises blessings for obedience (Exodus 20:5-6). God's holiness (Leviticus 19:2) and invisibility (Romans 1:20; Colossians 1:15) demand faith in the unseen (Hebrews 11:1), not visual aids.We address common concerns: intentions of the heart, classical art, teaching children about Jesus, and more, all while affirming the Westminster Larger Catechism's clear stance against any depiction of the Godhead. Whether you're Reformed or curious, join us for a Scripture-saturated discussion on worshiping God as He commands, especially in the season celebrating the Incarnation.Keep Up with Reformed Faith and Family in the Following Ways:Never miss an episode, article, or a new FREEBIE by joining our weekly newsletter here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://reformedfaithandfamily.com/subscribe/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Build your library with our recommended resources: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://reformedfaithandfamily.com/recommended-resources/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Read the latest articles: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://reformedfaithandfamily.com/blog/⁠⁠⁠⁠Download your FREEBIES in our store: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://reformedfaithandfamily.com/educational-resources-store/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check out the Gift Shop: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://reformedfaithandfamily.com/gift-shop/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Good Dog Bible Rebinds: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://reformedfaithandfamily.com/good-dog-designs-and-rebinds/⁠⁠⁠⁠WE HAVE A FAVOR TO ASK! If you are excited about our mission at Reformed Faith and Family to guide men and women as they seek to learn more about Reformed theology and equip families as they disciple their children, then please leave our podcast a 5-star review and share it with a friend.

Merry Christmas!!! After having so much fun last year, I am joined once again by my good friend and mentor Gary DeMar for our second annual Christmas movie conversation. What began as a simple holiday movie list quickly turned into a deep exploration of film history, wartime culture, hidden biblical themes in classic cinema, and several forgotten animated gems that place the Bible at the center of the story. From Jimmy Stewart's real tears in It's a Wonderful Life to the tense romance of Remember the Night to the surprising theological depth behind the 1939 short Good Will to Men, Gary brings decades of insight that transform these films into something far richer than nostalgia. If you love Christmas or movies or hearing Gary unpack the world behind the stories, this episode will be a gift to you.We also highlight lesser known treasures like Mr. Soft Touch, the unusual charm of Holiday Affair, and the new Best Christmas Pageant Ever from Dallas Jenkins. The conversation is filled with personal stories, behind the scenes trivia, and reflections on the redemptive themes that make Christmas storytelling so meaningful. Whether you are wrapping presents, driving through town to look at lights, or simply trying to enjoy a peaceful moment in the middle of December, this episode will warm your heart and expand your watchlist. Come sit with us, laugh with us, and rediscover the meaning woven into films old and new.

Dallas and Amanda Jenkins, creators of The Chosen, join the Perrys to talk about how God used one movie's box-office failure to bring about the now globally popular television series about the life of Jesus. The Jenkins talk about bringing their “five loaves and two fish” to God, letting Him handle the multiplication, and creating from a place of dependence rather than success. They discuss what it looks like to lead with authenticity, use “sanctified imagination” while staying true to Scripture, and keep their focus on honoring the character of Jesus. The conversation also covers how they handle criticism of their handling of Scripture and how they view The Chosen as both creative work and ministry.This Episode Is Sponsored By:https://www.covenanteyes.com/perrys/ —  Get Victory by Covenant Eyes FREE for 30 days with promo code PERRYShttps://liberty.edu/Perry — Get your application fee WAIVED when you start your future with Liberty University today!Stream The Chosen on Prime Video or in The Chosen app: https://www.thechosen.tv/en-usConnect with the Jenkinshttps://www.instagram.com/dallas.jenkins/https://www.instagram.com/amandaleejenkins/Check out other Bible study resources and children's books from The Chosen: https://www.amazon.com/stores/TheChosen/page/DA0F6571-B17A-41C3-8A25-5882393DA109Scripture referencesJohn 15:2 Subscribe to the Perrys' newsletter: https://withtheperrys.myflodesk.com/zhfus4jx1sJoin Preston's discipleship community for men: https://www.patreon.com/PrestonPerry/membershipTo support the work of the Perrys, donate via PayPal: https://paypal.me/withtheperrysShop BOLD Apparel: boldapparel.shop Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In Part Two of Jesus in Culture Weekend, Dallas Jenkins shared how The Chosen was born from his desire to close the “stained-glass” gap between people and Jesus—and from a season of personal failure that reoriented him to the “five loaves and two fish” posture of obedience, which God multiplied into an unlikely, record-setting launch. He explained the show's creative heartbeat: portray Jesus as fully God and fully human, let viewers see Him through the eyes of those who met Him, and use that authenticity to point people back to Scripture, an impact that's also transforming the team itself (including cast/crew coming to faith and even baptism).Support the show

Jase, Al, and Zach sit down with Dallas Jenkins, director of “The Chosen,” for a candid peek behind the scenes on faith and filmmaking. Jase shares how Phil used to deal with producers who wanted to water down his Jesus talk, and Dallas walks through the show's guardrails including script review, theological checks and balances, and a constant aim to point viewers back to Scripture. The guys explore the industry's pressure to soften explicit faith, and how to keep Jesus' name loud and clear when the world doesn't want to hear it.

What happens when someone truly goes "all in" with God? Travis Kring's return to Road to Redemption unveils the extraordinary transformation that unfolds when complete surrender meets divine grace.Travis takes us back to that pivotal moment on a West Palm Beach shoreline in April 2021. Having lost his marriage, children, career, and hometown, he stood at life's crossroads facing a divine ultimatum: "Is this flesh day? Is this all about yourself or is this about me?" His decision to fully commit sparked a redemption journey that continues to accelerate with each passing day.The conversation vibrates with authentic passion as Travis shares how his newfound boldness manifests in unexpected places. What began as two friends praying quietly by a gym water fountain has exploded into a daily gathering of 25+ people openly praying in a secular fitness center. This "ministry field" perfectly illustrates Travis's philosophy of spiritual offense rather than defense: "The devil's on full speed every day to attack us...we want to fight him back with scripture, with passion, putting people together."Perhaps most powerful is Travis's raw honesty about isolation's dangers and community's healing power. "Isolation is where the devil takes us to die," he shares, contrasting this with the life-giving connections formed in men's groups where vulnerability and accountability flourish. His encounter with Dallas Jenkins (creator of The Chosen) reinforces his core message: listen intently when the Holy Spirit speaks and obey immediately, regardless how small the prompting.Ready to move from being a fan to a follower of Christ? Travis's testimony offers both inspiration and practical pathways forward. His contagious enthusiasm for scripture reading, church attendance, and small group participation provides a roadmap for anyone seeking the "joy unspeakable" he's discovered through complete surrender to God.For more information contact us atrtrdestiny@gmail.com

Some Christians call "The Chosen" the best show about Jesus. Others claim it is heretical and needs to be avoided. But many of these conversations miss the kind of art "The Chosen" is aiming at being. In this two-part series, Daniel will explore whether the show is propaganda and whether we can call it something approaching neo-iconography. We will do this through the lens of Jordan Peterson's conversation with Dallas Jenkins.

Luke and Daniel see the trend of modernism doing no favors for a vibrant view of scripture. Our goal is to widen the field of vision for modern people reading the Bible as we grapple with its ancient context, literary beauty, and symbolic underpinnings. You may have been taught to read texts with an eye for their literary and symbolic structures in English courses in high school and/or college, but rarely is this taught to seminary students or lay Christians alike when it comes to the Bible. We want to keep this eye for symbolism, repetition, and structure as we investigate the Biblical canon, linking it to modern and old examples that are extemporaneous yet connected to aid in giving the broader field of vision mentioned earlier. Come along with us on our journey to reread your bible for the first time. We hope that through the words of those who have come before us, we can give Western Christianity its imagination back.
