my thoughts on the actor's strike and the chosen

In case you haven't heard, filming of season 4 has halted due to the actor's strike. (They are currently asking the Screen Actor's Guild for an exception because the show is independent rather than being connected to a major studio.)

Listen, I really, really want season 4. But more than that, I want writers and actors to receive fair compensation and protections. We waited YEARS between seasons 1 and 2. I don't mind waiting a little longer for season 4 until the strike is resolved.

1 Timothy 5:18: For the Scripture says... “The laborer deserves his wages.”

Jeremiah 22:13: Woe to him who builds his palace by unrighteousness, his upper rooms by injustice, making his own people work for nothing, not paying them for their labor.

Hey, hope you're doing well! Have you been able to keep up with The Chosen? I can imagine you're crazy busy, but just letting you know I miss your blog updates (including non-Chosen content :3)

Um, firstly adorable i love this message🥺

I've seen the first few episodes of the season so far, but I havent been able to keep fully up to date with it! I'm hoping once life settles back down this month I'll be able to come back to actually regularly posting on this blog.

I'm thinking about reorganising what that looks like a little, but I havent really come to any conclusions. I'd love to actually be able to have more discussions with people about stuff on here as well. So if anyone has comments on what they like seeing I'd love to hear it!

I'm definitely hoping to be back in the next month or so. I'm still floating around tumblr, so i definitely see when people send me asks or reblog stuff, i just havent been posting much on this blog (fingers crossed I'll be back soon, i miss you guys)

new booklr accounts :D

I’m looking for some more booklr (bookblr? spelling?) accounts to follow to interact with :D It’s hard to tell how active people are so hopefully some people will want to join in conversation with this!

#I havent been active much towards the end of last year #but i'm planning on being back #most of my recent stuff is related to #the chosen #mostly bc i was getting asks on it #but the actual book content should definitely be back soon #millie reads things #i have things to say

Hope you're well and getting to watch the new Chosen eps! Looks like Lazarus, Martha and Mary will appear in E3 on Christmas Day!!

I cannot put into words how keen i am for this!!!! Mary, Martha and Lazarus are my absolute favourites. The girls had better be in this episode or i will cry if its just Lazarus and i have to wait until the next one.

Also bonus points, if they show up for the first time in season 3, hopefully this means they get to be recurring characters for the rest of the show (viva la mary martha and lazaras for as much screen time as possible)

#im so exited for this you dont even know #the chosen tv series #millie watches things #i have things to say #does this mean i need an ask tag

Did you get to see S3 E1 of The Chosen yet? Can't wait to hear your thoughts when you do!

Sorry, this has been lurking in my ask box for ages, and i kept forgetting about it in the business of all the holiday things!

I have in fact seen S3E1 now!!

My thoughts:

As more and more characters get introduced, the vibe feels a little different, but I'm here for it

Um, Joanna??? I love her??? I'm so curious to see where her character goes. Also it seems like she's one of the first non-Jewish women? (But they're not super clear on her or Tamar, so I'm curious to see how they take it

Actually I'm just here for more of the women in general

Andrew and "do not be anxious", my heart

Also (I dont remember if it was episode 1 or 2) Andrew apologising to Mary, and Mary being like "i dont know anyones ever apologised to me before" i want to cry

Judas is going to break my heart i just know it

Also knowing where its going to end up with John, but not knowing WHEN the show is going to do it... but also Jesus like 'andrew you should go now, it would be good for you' has the vibes of 'you wont be able to do it again' as unspoken

eDEN i love her so much she's actually my favourite character

Matthew and his family??? Matthews parents being at the sermon on the mount???? Did they see him? Did they notice what he was doing?? That he had other people with him?? How jesus interacted with him?? How must that have felt???

Anyway yes, that is the brief (chaotic) summary of my thoughts, and i would love to hear other peoples too

I was fortunate enough to block off time to go yesterday. I get having to prioritize other things :( Do you have time off for Thanksgiving weekend? Praying it runs long enough for you to go!!

That's so good that you got to to! Unfortunately I'm in Australia, and we don't have a thanksgiving weekend to have off!

Are you planning to see episodes 1 and 2 of The Chosen Season 3 in theaters?

I'd love to, but we'll have to see how long its in cinemas for - I don't have the free time to go see it right at the moment (and I'm devastated!)

(which is why ive been notably absent from tumblr for the last little while!!)

Do you like House of the Dragon?

I haven't seen it - and it doesn't really seem like something that's my cup of tea so I'm probably not going to have much to do with it

(i'm not the biggest fantasy person in the world sorry)

Could you recommend me some good biblical novels?

Hey anon, sorry I've only just gotten to this. I've been SUPER busy the last little while, which is why I've been kind of absent on here

I haven't really read anything much recently, but I've answered a similar ask here before

If anyone else has recs they're more than welcome to add them!!

Crossover AU Narnia and the Chosen: At the end of Prince Caspian when the Pevensies leave Narnia, they end up in the wrong time and place: City of Capernum, Israel, 30 A.D.

That would be chaos, i love it

Mary of Bethany ✨thoughts✨ (I hope stuff like this might get shown in The Chosen)

Quoting Shakespeare, “Though she be little, she be fierce”. Definitely think of her being around 5’1.

Is the youngest, late teens/early twenties when Jesus starts His ministry. Is the ✨baby✨ whether she likes it or not.

I always saw her personality as being like an ENFJ I guess? Also, she would rather learn new things than be stuck doing chores much to Martha’s frustration.

Mary is super close with Martha and Lazarus and cannot see a life without them.

Is super close with Jesus as well and sees Him as another big brother. When she was little she would end up falling asleep on Him if it was a late night. She still does it and when she wakes up everyone promptly teases her.

Her hair gets played with, people use her as armrests, gets picked up, just things short people have to deal with.

If Taylor Swift existed in that time period she’d be a hardcore swiftie I am so sorry😂😂😂

#im so keen for mary martha and lazarus to show up #literally some of my favourites #the chosen tv series #millie watches things

Have you seen Jesus of Nazareth by Zeffirelli?
