Based on the acclaimed video series The Chosen, the life of Jesus gets a fresh, new telling in this novel series from New York Times bestselling author Jerry B. Jenkins. This collection contains the first five novels in the series.

I Have Called You By Name

What was it like to encounter Jesus face-to-face? Journey to Galilee in the first century. See the difference He made in the lives of those He called to follow Him and how they were forever transformed.

Come and See

As Jesus' ministry grew, more people wanted to hear and be healed. All, by encountering Jesus, were forever changed. Follow along with Jesus' disciples as they witness miraculous healings, confrontations with the religious establishment, growing concern among Roman officials over Jesus' popularity, and, most of all, love personified.

And I Will Give You Rest

In this third installment, we see Jesus healing the sick, preaching, feeding the five thousand, and raising the dead. His enemies grow more determined to silence him. And his very human disciples struggle with their own questions and concerns, believing in but not yet understanding their Messiah.

Upon This Rock

As religious leaders conspire to put an end to Jesus, His followers wonder at His ominous parables and pronouncements. Beyond retelling the familiar accounts, Upon This Rock depicts the fate of John the Baptist, a profound teaching on inexhaustible forgiveness, and Simon becoming Peter. Grieve with Jesus and His followers at unspeakable loss, traverse with them "the extra mile," face down the Pharisees, and witness an impossible miracle.

Not My Will

Experience the tumultuous final days of Jesus' earthly ministry--Holy Week. Beginning with His triumphant entry into Jerusalem and moving through His righteous rage at the temple to the darkest night of His soul in Gethsemane. In vivid detail and with emotional depth, this novel captures the heartbreak, hope, and humanity of the most pivotal week in the history of the world.
