Elijah Alexander, the actor who portrays Atticus in The Chosen, has shared that his time working on the popular series led him to place his faith in Jesus Christ.
According to his testimony, Alexander sent a message to The Chosen creator Dallas Jenkins saying, “For the first time in my life, I fully believe and I am His now. And I have you to thank for making the introduction.”
Alexander, who comes from a Jewish background, said his journey of faith unfolded while filming the series. Not long afterward, he was baptized in the Sea of Galilee, the same historic region where much of Jesus’ earthly ministry took place and where scenes from the show have been filmed.
