I\u2019m not the real Jesus, let\u2019s just get that out of the way,\u201d Jonathan Roumie said with a big grin as he addressed the March for Life rally in Washington, D.C., last January. \u201cReal Jesus, TV Jesus,\u201d he added, gesturing to the heavens above and then to himself as thousands of pro-life advocates cheered.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

While there are few people who need to remind their audience that they are not actually the incarnate Son of God, Roumie might be excused for his chutzpah. After all, he portrays Jesus on the enormously successful TV series The Chosen. What began in 2019 as a crowdfunded effort has now completed three seasons and been streamed more than 500 million times worldwide.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just a few months before sharing his powerful pro-life message on the National Mall, Roumie became a member of the Knights of Columbus. In May, during a break from filming on the set of The Chosen, he shared with Columbia about his Catholic faith, how it informs his acting career, and what it means to be a Knight.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
