More proof that the Lord moves in mysterious ways his wonders to perform. Perseverance and faith win out in the end!

How exciting! Can’t wait. Be praying for you all to stay energized and that things go smoothly and that the stress levels stay low.

In Gods time. You guys are doing such wonderful things and are so faithful to God. Prayers continue for you all.

Wonderful news... Can't wait for BTS of the new movie. God bless!

Oh this is great!!! I used that book in my classroom-public!! For many years!!! Always cried at the end!!!! When they learned about Jesus!!! Can’t wait to watch it!! Thank you!!!!

Man, do we need this message right now. I love that you get to make this movie. Congrats!!

YAY!!!!!!! Congratulations! So happy for you 😊 and, Yes, praying for you and all involved.

Dallas and Amanda, I am so excited to hear about your dream to make this movie come true. Faith and Patience work every time!! This will be awesome...it will be difficult to wait a whole year before it's released. Only God knows how much more your work will do to add to His Kingdom. What a blessing to this world you are!!!

I look forward to seeing other projects directed by you ever since you’ve done The Chosen!!

I am watching this video sitting in my living room crying like an idiot because I am so happy that you are making this movie. I so love this book. I taught Sunday School and worked in Children's Church etc. What really kills me about this book is that for 30 years I worked in the public school system as a Special Education Paraeducator. For 30 years the Herdmans, in one form or another, were my babies. I know you will do an amazing job on this movie. I can't wait to see it. I will be in prayer for you all.

This video was so moving! Your excitement for this project jumps off the screen! I adore the book :)

I've never heard of this book until now. Hearing your passion for it has me moved. I'm incredibly excited for you! I have no doubt you will do this story justice.

Mr. Dallas this will be an epic movie! In prayers for it all now!

I'm so looking forward to seeing the movie! And because it's Dallas and Amanda's project I know it will be the story told excellent!

Yahoo!!!!!!!!!!! One of my family’s favorite books!!!!

So excited to see how God continues to use you to bring His message to our hurting world. Thank you for being open to where He continues to lead you and Amanda.

Congratulations May God continue to lead and guide you and Amanda as He grant you favor through every stage of the production: 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

What wonderful joy you have shared with us! I checked, and the book is even translated to my language, norwegian. Greetings from Norway

I am so excited! Thanks for giving us a heads up and asking us to pray about your trip to Canada! God is leading you and Amanda! Blessings!

My family enjoyed this story for years during the Christmas season. You will do very well by it, Dallas & Amanda. Can't wait!

WooHoo!! That is sooo exciting!! Amazing how God's timing is always soooo different from our own......"soon." Your endless faith in God's plan for you gives me such hope and inspiration through my own endless journey!! I cannot wait to see this movie. I have a Chosen budget jar for all the upcoming releases so now I guess I need to add this to the jar as well. I have no doubt that this will be an amazing movie! I will also add these requests to my prayer list! 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️

Dallas: so excited to have another real Christmas movie to look forward to! I actually enjoyed Gavin Stone and your unique take on a Christian movie so I can't wait to see what you can do with this!

Beautiful Well done You gave your part 2+ 5 and never give it up It’s mean to be your movie, you had even notes in your old book God was testing your patience. Can’t wait to see it. God luck and God bless you ❤

I'm very excited for this project! count on my prayers!

You take all the time you need @DallasJenkins! Don’t feel rushed. The Chosen Army has your back. Looking forward to more from you, Amanda and God Almighty! ❤🙌

I love the Chosen, and my husband and I saw season 4 in the movie theater. Now we are showing season for to our adult children. They love it! Dallas, you will do well directing this. Can't WAIT to see it in November!

Ohhhh I couldn’t be happier about this!!! Praying for you and all who are involved in making this beautiful movie!!! Thank you for not giving up!! God is sooooo faithful!!!

Growing up in a rural pastor's family in the 80's, we LOVED this story and I still watch the old TV movie every year at Christmas with my daughters. Funny thing is, I'm now an indie filmmaker and I too have been researching the rights to this for years, wanting to remake it as a longer feature film (the original TV movie is very short, yet somehow still very powerful). Since the rights weren't available, I instead wrote a Christmas script where the main character says it's her favorite Christmas movie and then the guy brings a copy for them to watch when she's at a low moment. It's a turning-point for both characters and they start to see their own stories differently. I remember thinking, "maybe that scene will cause someone to track down the original book or movie" because I too feel like this story can change lives. Yet I too didn't want anyone else to remake it and screw it up, so I had to laugh when I heard that you (Dallas) were remaking it because there's literally NO OTHER living director that I would be okay with doing this. Then I see this video and realize that you've been preparing your whole career for this and, because of your platform, more people will see it than I could ever bring to the theater! God is so good and His plans are perfect! Dallas, you were "chosen" for such a time as this. Movies don't save people... only the Spirit can do that... but God is directing this and He's picked you as His humble A.D. so serve HIS vision and this film will plant good seed in so many fertile hearts! P.S. I'm now adding "Pray for Pageant" to my weekly calendar.

Oh I'm so excited! Your enthusiasm alone makes it super exciting. I'll have to go read the book now😉. Love y'all so much, Dallas it was so great to meet you in Dallas lol at Chosen Con. Both of you are so sweet. I can't wait for this❤ God Bless you! ❤🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️

Re-watching in honor of the trailer coming out. I'm blown away by the goodness of God, and beyond excited to see it Nov 8th!! ❤

Awesome!

It's all God. God has you Dallas. Congratulations

Estou animada para este filme! Deus abençoe esse projeto, já estou em oração por ele! ❤

My husband and I are so excited for you two. We love to hear how God so intricately puts His plan together and how He anoints our hearts to wait with Him for completion. We are so blessed by the anointing God has placed on your lives and to pray for you and your family. Much love to you both and God bless you richly with Himself.

So great the process God has taken you both on. Love the joy you share in how the process has unfolded. Thank you for laboring for this🙏🏻🙏🏻

I Will keep watch for this new bit of your work to be released (along with the upcoming seasons of The Chosen). The Messengers & The Shepherd mix to come as well...🎄 I've always had a soft spot for Christmas stories myself. That you have a lot on your plate goes without saying...but have you considered a Christmas story/film as seen from the Wisemen's perspective? When I was young (60+ years ago) I remember one called Amahl & the Night Visitors. (I based a Sunday School pageant on it myself 20 some years ago). I'm sitting here listening to you & Amanda talking about acquiring the rights & all that's involved. But I've no doubt whatsoever that should you & your band of geniuses take on such a task...it would be something special...Keep up the good work & God Bless you all..~prayers are with you~

So happy for you both. Thanks for sharing your dreams and your talent!

Excited to see what God does through this! Remain reliant on HIm! Proverbs 3:5-6

Can't wait to see it! Will be praying.

What great news and I’m so excited to see this movie you guys! God bless you and all your endeavors for Him❤️❤️❤️

Prayer going up! You two are amazing. Once again proof that "In God's timing" means everything. Your heart's desire has been fulfilled once again. Thank you for sharing it! I love all that you have done and what you're about to do. You are moving Christian programming to a whole new level. It's wonderful. Merry Christmas and God bless you and yours.

Praise the Lord Dallas and Amanda. We will be praying for you guys. Me and all in Paraclete Prayer Ministry. What a testimony.

I'm so excited to see Imogen as Mary and Gladys as the angel shoving the shepherds up to the stage and yelling, "Hey! Unto you a child is born!" Will Lips from MASH play the pageant director again??😊❤ (I'm guessing not)

I’m so very thankful for this new movie buy the best group ever! Of creative,anointed men and women seeing this makes my day!! Christmas in July!! Awesomeness ❤❤❤

It looks like you have done it again Dallas!!! Seeing the Trailer makes me so excited, I wish it was out now!!! This film will a New Christmas Classic!!!

I’m already praying for this project, Dallas and Amanda! I know it’s gonna be awesome too!! Can’t wait to see it! ❤🇧🇷

Oh wow. Praise God!!! You Dallas and Amanda just encouraged me to be persistent and never give up❤

Congratulations, Dallas...congrats to both of you! Can't wait to see S4 of The Chosen and now I am eager to see your Christmas special movie filmed in my beloved Canada. You two are amazing and talented people with open hearts for God and human souls thirsty for His love and care for us little beings. Thank you, thank you...❤

SO Excited for you guys. Love, LOVE, LOVE it! Congratulations!! Praying for you.

A LOT of crying goin' on 'round here! 😢 ❤️ Thanks for your passion and talents!

The Lord definitely knew what He was doing putting you two together! Love your beautifully matched hearts and passion for the Lord. Looking forward to seeing this movie! What a great testimony to both God’s goodness and the value of faithful prayer.

Congratulations!!! So happy for you ❤ God Bless🙌

Yo!!! I’m excited because you’re excited!!! I’m going to read the book too (in preparation) 😊 Love the example of “waiting on the Lord” and trusting that He has absolutely got this! Congrats you two 🥳

I think I still have my book as a kid! I remember liking it. I may have to pull it out and read it from my adult faith-filled eyes!

Awesome! I am so excited for you both. God is so faithful especially if we continue to pray for God’s timing with passions of our heart.

I haven’t ever read the book, but now I want to!

Great news! 🎉

Congrats guys, so wonderful! Amazing news, you will do just fantastic!!!!❤❤❤❤🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

I cannot wait to see this movie! Congratulations!

Mr Jenkins I don't know if you read the comments or not but I feel compelled to say this Billy Graham may he rest in peace would be so proud of you and your cast and the multitudes of people whose lives have been changed and brought closer to Jesus and God.

Lol Saw it on Snipe Life first. I am excited to watch it and plan to buy the book. Also very good to see the unity ya'll have and the support as a couple leaning on and encouraging one another

Wonderful! Your faith journey concerning this book is awesome!

Oh, I haveeeee to see it. Looking forward to it

Dallas you and your wife are amazing praying for you both for this and chosen series 😊

I'm very excited and LOVE to see how God worked and answered your faithful prayer!!!! Congratulations and God bless you both!

Joy! Love hearing the excitement in your voices, and the wonderful testimonies of His faithfulness in your lives. Rejoicing with you!! 😃🙌🏻🎉💕

Congratulations 🎊 👏🏼 💐 I'm excited for the release. I hope the story remains the same since, I think, I heard you say, "...rewrite..." however, maybe it was just about the guy who wrote it to fit the screenplay. I'm such a book purist. 😊 GOD bless you all.

Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam! 🙏🏼❤️🥹

So exciting for you guys! So encouraging to hear about the lord not letting you give up on those dreams!!

So cool that you are doing this right in the middle of The Chosen because this story is such a beautiful mirror of The Chosen

Awesome! I'm so glad you get to work in another project that glorifies the Lord, as a couple and as ministry. It's refreshing for you... what a Blessing to see God's faithfulness as He sees yours through the years ... seems it was necessary, the maturity and understanding you've acquired these past years. PTL!! 💖🙌🏻

I remember this story and I’m excited to hear that you are going to get the chance you’ve been praying for for so long. I can’t wait to see it because it will be wonderful with you doing it. I love The Chosen so much! I’ve watched the first 3 seasons 9 times and can’t wait for S4. Thank you for sharing this and I will be praying as I do for the cast and crew of The Chosen.

Looking forward to it!

Hallelujah. God is amazing!, Congratulations 🎉.

So happy for you both! Learnt so much listening to you two share this story. God is good and faithful ❤

What an amazing story of Faith! Congratulations! I can't wait to see it!!! 😍❤️😘🙏
