Kristen Lagore shared how she turned from being a fan to a host of the hit Christian series, “The Chosen.”
“The Chosen”
In 2020, a couple of friends recommended the show to Kristen, a Christian speaker from Canada. At first, she was hesitant to watch it thinking that it might be boring and lame.
“It’s probably super lame,” she said. “Let’s be real, like can anything good at all come out of Christian media?”
While staying at home during the COVID-19 surge, she finally gave the Bible-based series a shot. Right after watching the first episode, she fell in love right away with the show and how it changed her perspective about who Jesus is.
“I fell in love with it right away, I wept through the whole thing. It changed my life, it changed the way that I see Jesus and how I relate to Him as a friend. I’ve never been able to see Jesus as a friend,” Kristen recalled.

She became a passionate fan of the show and soon, she was called to be an extra for season 2 of the show. Kristen flew to Texas for the filming and there she met director Dallas Jenkins and his wife Amanda Jenkins.
After coming home from the shoot, she posted an Instagram post about her experience as an extra for her favorite show. What she didn’t is that the video would change her entire life! Producers of “The Chosen” contacted her after watching the video and they told her they wanted to work with her as a host of the show.
“Let’s just say…’a dream come true is a serious understatement in terms of the past 3 months of my life. I went from being a serious SUPER FAN of my favorite TV show called The Chosen to being offered an opportunity to help create some behind-the-scenes videos to get this show out to ONE BILLION PEOPLE.”
From being a passionate fan, she became a behind the scene host of “The Chosen!” You can watch some of her videos on YouTube and hear more about her story on Instagram.
