Shaan Sharma AKA ‘Shmuel’ the Pharisee gives us a look behind the scenes at his experience as part of THE CHOSEN and shares his personal relationship with Jesus Christ...at an event called "The Chosen, An Insider's view."

He is a very interesting individual and his remarks were excellent. I hope you enjoy them & share your thoughts in the comments.

The event was held in Gilbert, AZ on 9/18/23. He was joined by actor Nick Shakoour (Zebedee) and Angel Studio President Jordan Harmon. I may post their remarks as well.

There was some outstanding music at this interfaith event. One of the songs performed is a favorite of my wife, so I included it at the end of this talk. I do not know the name of the young lady who sang it, but she was terrific.
