Our Q & A Continues With Peter Arnold, Christian Angelic Mystical Suspense Thriller Author, "Armor of Light: A Trilogy Story" (eBook series)
Heaven's Doorway Press - Q & A with author, Peter Arnold:
Question: Peter, is it true you met Jonathan Roumie, who plays Jesus in the global hit series, "The Chosen"? Tell us about your connection.
"It was a supreme moment of grace. My home parish where I was Confirmed is at Saint Monica Catholic Community in California. In 2018, prior to 'The Chosen' crowd-funded series launch, Jonathan Roumie and Maria Vargo acted and directed a Passion play inside the church called, 'The Last Days.' As I was seated in the pew, Jonathan in an extraordinary performance was mystically channeling Jesus via the Holy Spirit and walking up the nave of the church. He was unknown then; however, it was all I could do to remain seated as I wanted to run up and hug 'Jesus.' Here's a few pics of the vintage paper program below:
At the end of the performance, Jonathan and Maria (while still in costume), greeted everyone as we left the east side entrance doors of the church. I humbly looked up at Jonathan as 'Jesus', wearing a crown of thorns and special effects blood, barely able to say thank you as I was emotionally over-whelmed by the realistic performance. Then, as I said, 'thank you,' he whispered, 'I saw you.' This was such a divine consolation, that my soul felt the immediate meaning akin to Nathaniel (also known as Bartholomew) being seen standing under a fig tree by Jesus! Little did I know, Jonathan Roumie was in the room months before when I gave my witness testimony at the men's 'Cornerstone' annual retreat. Eventually, after the first season of 'The Chosen' streamed, I saw Jonathan again and said, 'This is the role you were born to play.' He was so gracious and thrilled to be blessed with the role."
Question: What an unforgettable moment! Since that mystical encounter, have you heard anything more from Jonathan?
"We all have our unique ministries, our calling. As 'The Chosen' became a worldwide phenomenon, I saw him at the parish. Truly devout and inspiring to us all. Here are some pics below that was a dream come true - now beloved by two Popes!"
