The Chosen: Scripture Reflections & Discussion Questions

Each session includes the length of time for watching each part, a brief summary, Scripture reflections and discussion questions. These resources were developed for 8th grade, and work well with older students and adults. The results of piloting these resources over two years, in the way that worked best with the students and the time that was available, was that the young people began to take a deeper interest in the Scripture readings.  Feel free to use the resources as you think will work the best.

Note: A star (*) signifies that the episode is most appropriate for younger children.
