Join Ben McEachen and Laura Bennett as they dive into episode seven of The Chosen’s season four. Our predictions that the raising of Lazarus would be the season finale were shattered as we follow Jesus to Bethany. We see Jesus's sadness with new eyes as we witness the pain and grief, experienced by his dear friends and their loved ones. Ben finally gets what his wish, but does this episode have too much Thomas? This episode examines how the disciples wrestle with the existence of death and what it means for believers.

In this riveting episode of "Following the Chosen," Ben and Laura dive into the complexities and emotional depths of Season 4, Episode 4 of "The Chosen." The episode, described by Ben as one laden with internal conflict, especially raises poignant questions about faith, healing, and the seemingly contradictory actions of Jesus in different situations.

The discussion navigates the aftermath of Rhema's death, the healing of Gaius' son, and the disciples' continued struggles with their faith and leadership roles. They also delve into how major plot points, like Gaius' elevated faith and the disciples' desire for leadership, are woven into the episode, creating a mosaic of teachings that demand deep reflection.
