Do you love the TV Series "The Chosen?" My guest today is Brandon Robbins. He is a Pastor, Girl Dad, and Author of a new book called "The Forgotten Teachings of Jesus." The book will be available February 4th but you can pre-order now. Below is more information about Brandon.
Pastor Brandon Robbins, a leading voice on The Chosen through
his popular YouTube channel, now brings readers The Forgotten
Teachings of Jesus (David C Cook, February 4, 2025), a book
designed to enhance their understanding of the series and deepen
their connection to its spiritual themes. Offering a unique,
episode-by-episode exploration of the first season, this book
unpacks the biblical truths and cultural context that make The
Chosen so impactful.
“The Chosen is an amazing series,” writes Robbins. “But it is not
Scripture. One of The Chosen’s greatest strengths is its ability to
draw its audience into the biblical story. We feel as if we are
there, walking with Jesus, one among his disciples. But sometimes we can mistake the events of
the show for the events of Scripture. This book will help to unblur those lines. Over the course of
thirty-two chapters, we are going to dive deep into the events of the first season of the show. My
goal for you when you read the final page of this book isn’t just for you to feel like you
understand the series better—I want you to understand the Bible better.”

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
