Vivian Mabuni grew up in a Chinese American home, in a Culturally Buddhist environment. She was familiar with crystals, incense and ceremonies for honoring the spirits of her elders, and even saw Christians performing similar rituals, but going through the motions was never connected to deeper meaning. Then she experienced Jesus in a way that performative Christianity had never offered.

Now Vivian helps Christians think more critically by providing training for all of God’s people to step into their callings. Fully acknowledged identity in Christ only benefits the church. This episode will give you the confidence to own your place.

Spending time with Jesus is key for spiritual growth, but have you ever wondered what it would’ve been like for the disciples to learn those lessons in real time, right under the direction and correction of Jesus as their teacher?

George H. Xanthis plays John the Apostle, one of the few who would’ve been the closest to Jesus, on The Chosen. He shares what he’s learned by portraying a character whose transformation takes him from being a brash Son of Thunder to a humble disciple of love. If you find surrender to be challenging, this conversation will help you in the process of learning to let go.
