    I have really appreciated the relationship between Matthew and Gaius. And I considered the conversation between Gauias and Matthew's mother poignant, especially when Guias td her, "Matthew has friends." That said a lot and am hoping we see something more of the relationship between Gaius and Matthew in the future.

      Thinking Ganis maybe be the centurion that asks Jesus to heal his servant, WITHOUT coming to his house."Just say the word and my servant will be healed". Jesus ended up proclaiming, "Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith."
      Just my 2 cents????

      @Oشوعیب راسولیO update:I believe Atticus will be the centurion at the cross. When he was introduced, Quintus said "Atticus Cornelius". Cornelius is the name of the gentile Peter converts in Acts.
      Gaius has a servant child he loves, he'll ask for his healing.

      I say he already is, in terms of actually carrying out the lessons of Jesus' sermons. Of course, he has no formal declaration or commitment to following him (nor does his job allow it). But he is a just man, and will eventually have to stick up for Jesus (to Quintas, in particular).

    I, for one, am so glad AND Grateful that you gave this interview of Kirk Woller. Over a year ago (?maybe?)
    I had seen a wonderful interview presented that brought me to tears.
    As a creative person who loves to afford possibilities in offering help, direction and inspiration to younger people (in his case, a desire to mentor younger actors... or any actors for that matter) I identify with this. I'm inspired and very moved that this interview allows his "voice"... (I mean his "opinions"... well, he also has a good voice to listen to). Of the character/actors portrayed in this epic series, I'm poised with his intellectual side, but also his allowance to Listen about this miracle-working man, Jesus... and how he leaves the door ajar (he stays open minded). This series chose, perfectly, actors, like Woller (Kirk) whom we feel Guias being portrayed as a strict roman soldier, with wonderful human traits of
    compassion, and genuine sincerity. I hope to see more interviews, such as this. Thank, Kirk Woller, for me, will ya? And thank yous.

    @jimwinchester339 11 месяцев назад

    Gaius has a complex and evolving character in the series. His character, along w/ Atticus, are extremely powerful ones because they each, in their own way, represent the rational & good-hearted gentiles who gradually gain fair and legitimate impressions of Jesus and eventually will come to believe. In fact, I'd say that both of them, at the end of season 3, already approve of Jesus, but as of yet have no tangible commitment to following him (and indeed, professionally, cannot have one). It's the inevitable showdowns with Quintas (and perhaps eventually Pilate, Herod, and the ruling Jews) that will be most intriguing.

She's like oh my I never thought of that. She's said she was going to have to go home and relook at this whole thing. It was totally the Holy Spirit working in me, but it was awesome.

    I don't know, I think reason is sort of antithetical to faith. When I think of faith I think of the phrase leap of faith, meaning just trust it, don't overthink it. If you approach the existence of God from a purely reason based place, i.e. apply the scientific method to God, then you would conclude that there is no God. It's through faith that we come to know God, not through reason.

    To be honest I'm completely disappointed about Chosen. Showing LGBT FLAG during the play recordings, male actors hugging kissing eachother and SO ON is not acceptable it's a huge responsibility for anyone to take part I hope they know what they are doing not to to damage the subject, characters and the facts about jesus BECAUSE it's not just any movie it's about the lord son of god JESUS. it's not funny and not a joke.hope they take it seriously.
