Jordan Walker Ross on Disability, Faith & Healing + Behind-the-Scenes Fun on The Chosen Join The Morning Cruise as Dave, Bill, and Carmen interview Jordan Walker Ross (“Little James” on The Chosen). Carmen’s mom, a devoted fan shares how a scene about healing helped her reframe living with MS, and Jordan discusses embracing his own disabilities after years of feeling boxed in by the industry, the impact the scene has had on viewers, and why faith and healing aren’t always black-and-white. He offers encouragement to those who feel “less than,” describing disability as different, not broken, and emphasizing internal healing from others’ hurts. Jordan also describes supportive cast dynamics, his playful “dad” bit with Jonathan Roumie, and his practical jokes on set.

Rabbi Jason Sobel, Messianic Jewish rabbi, spiritual advisor to The Chosen, and founder of Fusion Global, tells the full story of the supernatural encounter that transformed him from an Orthodox Jewish kid into one of the most respected teachers connecting the Old and New Testaments today.In this episode of The Resilient Show, host Chad Robichaux and Rabbi Sobel go deep on what it means to be a Messianic Jew, why most Jews have rejected Jesus as the Messiah, what the Bible actually says about Israel being God's chosen people, the truth behind the Talmud (and what it's NOT), the "Christ is King" controversy between Ted Cruz and Tucker Carlson, and the real spiritual war behind antisemitism throughout history.Rabbi Sobel also shares behind-the-scenes stories from working with Dallas Jenkins and Jonathan Roumie on The Chosen, why Jesus had to die on a tree (the Eden reversal), how the Jewish context of Scripture unlocks the Bible in "high definition," and the gospel message of salvation that changed his life.RABBI JASON SOBEL'S LATEST BOOK:- Transformed by the Messiah (forward by Dallas Jenkins) — https://www.fusionglobal.org/shop/transformed-by-the-messiah/FOLLOW RABBI JASON SOBEL & FUSION GLOBAL:- Website: https://www.fusionglobal.org- Rock Road Rabbi Tours to Israel: https://www.rockroadrabbi.com- YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/rabbijasonsobelCHAD ROBICHAUX'S NEW BOOK — "RIPTIDE" (pre-order for May 12):- https://www.tyndale.com/p/riptide/9781496488756——Stay up-to-date with all things Resilient by subscribing to our Resilient Times Newsletter: https://resilienttimes.substack.comRESILIENT:Follow Us On Patreon: ⁠https://patreon.com/theresilientshowFollow Us On Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/resilientshowFollow Us On Twitter:⁠ ⁠https://twitter.com/resilientshowFollow Us On TikTok:⁠ ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@resilientshowLIVE RESILIENT STORE:https://shop.theresilientshow.comFollow Chad: ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/chadrobo_officialhttps://x.com/ChadRoboSPONSORS:GoldCo https://chadlikesgold.comSmith & Wesson: ⁠⁠https://www.smith-wesson.com⁠⁠Vortex Optics: ⁠https://vortexoptics.com⁠Gatorz Eyewear: ⁠⁠https://www.gatorz.com⁠⁠Allied Wealth: ⁠https://alliedwealth.com⁠BioPro+: ⁠⁠https://www.bioproteintech.com/CHAD30⁠⁠BioXCellerator: ⁠https://www.bioxcellerator.com⁠SLNT: https://slnt.com------The Resilient Show is a proud supporter of military and first responder communities in partnership with ⁠Mighty Oaks Foundation⁠.

The Morning Cruise sits down with Giavani, who plays Thaddeus on The Chosen, joined by Carmen’s mom, a devoted fan. Giavani shares that Jordan Walker Ross is the set’s class clown, describing pranks like filling Austin’s dressing room with dozens of small Christmas trees and tumbleweed. He explains how the cast developed their accents using Jonathan Roumie’s performance as a reference and working with a dialect coach, and admits he sometimes stays in character at home. Giavani discusses the challenge and honor of portraying the quieter disciple Thaddeus (St. Jude), including a season five flashback showing his earlier hesitation and how he aimed to portray quiet faith and kindheartedness. They also touch on his Detroit roots, Lions fandom, engagement and wedding planning, and how an injury shifted him from baseball dreams to acting, which he attributes to surrender and trust in God.  Connect with us: The Morning Cruise on Instagram The JOY FM YouTube Listen Live: https://www.thejoyfm.com/

Gregory Pine, OP, to name a familiar tension: many of us resist Lent, even while longing for the work God wants to do in us.

From $10 to 1 Billion Prayers: How Hallow Sparked a Prayer RevolutionJoin host Justin Forman for an unforgettable conversation with Alex Jones, CEO and co-founder of Hallow, the world's #1 Catholic prayer and meditation app. Starting with just $10 in a bank account, Alex and his team have facilitated over one billion minutes of prayer and reached 27.5 million downloads—all while maintaining a steadfast focus on authentic faith over business metrics.Alex shares his raw journey from falling away from faith in college to encountering Jesus through contemplative prayer, and how a heartbreaking note from his aunt—who lost her son—convinced him that even if just one more person found hope through Hallow, it would be worth dedicating his life to. This episode explores the intersection of technology and spirituality, the courage to spend everything on a Super Bowl commercial, and why prayer isn't therapy—it's a relationship with an invisible God who transforms everything.Key Topics:The miraculous growth from beta app to #1 in the App Store during LentWhy prayer is a relationship with God, not a self-help practicePartnering with Mark Wahlberg, Jonathan Roumie, and Chris Pratt authenticallyThe controversial Super Bowl commercial that beat Temu's $1.5B ad budgetBuilding with radical surrender: "Every good thing at Hallow has been me grasping tightly, then letting go and God doing it"Why excellence matters in faith-based technologyWitnessing God save lives through prayer: from addiction recovery to suicide preventionWorking with investors like Goodwater Capital who integrate faith and businessNotable Quotes:"There is a crazy belief that I think there's an invisible dude here and I talk to and listen to him every day, all day, and especially in times of silence." - Alex Jones"If we're all praying, if we are all as close to the Lord as you can be, like if we're all saints—that's the game." - Alex Jones"Prayer is not a therapy thing. It's not a self-help thing. It's not talking to yourself. It's a relationship you have." - Alex Jones

“Was Jonathan Roumie wrong to kneel for Communion?” This question opens a discussion on liturgical practices, while also addressing varied topics such as Old Testament references to speaking in tongues, the Catholic perspective on dancing during the liturgy, and the relationship between Catholics and Protestants. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish!

Want to reach out to us? Want to leave a comment or review? Want to give us a suggestion or berate Anthony? Send us a text by clicking this link!The spark was small—a tweet from Bishop Barron about synodality and doctrine—but the questions behind it are huge: What should a synod actually decide? How did “the spirit of Vatican II” turn into perpetual uncertainty? And why are everyday Catholics still getting side-eyed for kneeling at communion? We open the hood on a consistory that could reset expectations, sift Barron's argument for what it gets right and wrong, and get painfully practical about reverence, freedom, and pastoral authority.Along the way, we share a happier twist: a priest reached out and offered to accompany our Italy trip, making daily Latin Mass not only possible but likely across private chapels in Rome and beyond. That momentum matters. People don't want liturgical roulette; they want beauty, clarity, and worship that deepens faith. The pastoral playbook that treats piety as a problem is wearing thin, and that comes into sharp focus with a diocese banning portable kneelers for the elderly and Jonathan Roumie describing how he was told to stand when he tried to receive on his knees. Reverence isn't performance; it's love braving friction.We don't dodge the tough map either. Under Francis, a common foe united disparate trad corners. Under Leo, the tone is calmer, but the doctrinal direction still worries many. Could a non-territorial jurisdiction—an ordinariate-style solution with bishops from traditional communities—offer stability without schism? Maybe. Or maybe it risks a new ghetto unless leaders honor what's already law: the right to kneel, the right to receive on the tongue, and the call to worship God with proper solemnity. We're watching the consistory, reading the dubia, and building something constructive: a pilgrimage ordered to daily prayer and the Eucharist.If this conversation hits home, follow the show, share it with a friend who cares about liturgy and clarity, and leave a quick review.

In Part II of our conversation, we talk about the years of filming The Chosen, how he was chosen for his role as Jesus, and the extraordinary time spent in Matera for the Crucifixion. Jonathan explains when and how that season will air. I asked if he felt this role had changed him in any way over all these years of filming? I also asked an almost impossible question to answer: Did he have a favorite segment (or two)?

This week and next, Jonathan talks about how he and the cast rejoiced over meeting a fellow American, Pope Leo XIV, and he also offered a perceptive analysis of the new Pope.

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Matthew 8:18-22 - When Jesus saw a crowd around Him, He gave orders to cross to the other shore. A scribe approached and said to Him, “Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go.” Jesus answered him, “Foxes have dens and birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to rest His Head.” Another of his disciples said to Him, “Lord, let me go first and bury my father.” But Jesus answered him, “Follow Me, and let the dead bury their dead.” Memorial of the First Holy Martyrs of the Holy Roman Church First Holy Martyrs, pray for us!

In this episode, we talk about spiritual mentorship and being formed in Jesus. We reflect on the spiritual mentors who have journeyed with us and share stories about the lessons that have shaped who we are today.  We also talk about why comparison crushes our ability to receive, our calling to make disciples of all nations, and how the daily witness of our lives is an answer to this call.   Heather's One Thing - Fix You (Live from the O2 Arena) by Jacob Collier and Chris Martin Sister Miriam's One Thing - Dr. Christin McIntyre on the Restore the Glory Podcast and her lectures on Thomistic Psychology (Part 1) (Part 2) Michelle's One Thing - Dr. Mary Lou and Chris O'Grady and letting us use their beach home   Announcement: Join us for our Lenten Study beginning March 5th, 2025 as we journey through “Jesus and the Jubilee: The Biblical Roots of the Year of God's Favor“ by Dr. John Bergsma.

How have I failed to acknowledge the humanity of my mentors? What intentional “yeses” can I give to mentoring or being mentored in this season?   Discussion Questions: What were the practical ways that you were able to receive mentorship in your life? What parts of the Face of God did my mentors reveal to me despite their own brokenness? How have your peers mentored you in different seasons? Who can you help discover & release their gifts to the world?   Quote to Ponder: “Modern man listens more willingly to witnesses than to teachers, and if he listens to teachers, it is because they are witnesses.”  (Pope Paul VI, On Evangelization in the Modern World)   Scripture for Lectio: “How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!” (Romans 10:14-15)   Sponsor - Hallow: This episode is sponsored by Hallow, the #1 prayer app in the world with over 10,000 prayers, meditations, and music to help you find peace and grow closer to God.
