GRAPEVINE, Texas (NRB) – The Chosen,“ a multi-season series about the life of Jesus Christ and the largest crowd funded media project of all time, produced by VidAngel Studios, has agreed to be a major sponsor of the 2021 NRB Convention June 21-24 at the Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center in Grapevine, Texas.

Director, Dallas Jenkins, will be a speaker and featured items from the set of “The Chosen,” including Peter’s boat and a campsite will be on display outside the exhibit hall.

“I’m thrilled to come to NRB 2021 not only because I want to share with fellow kingdom-builders what I’m learning, but because I want to hear from them what they’re learning,” said Jenkins. “NRB is so encouraging to new and old voices, and they’ve been supportive of The Chosen from the beginning.”
