Simon Peter had a wife

We get limited information about most of the people mentioned in Scripture. Scripture didn’t deem it important to cover every aspect of their lives. But that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t or can’t be portrayed.

We know that Simon Peter had a wife, but nothing is said about her in Scripture. In The Chosen, we explore what their marriage may have been like, using cultural, historical, and biblical context. And, of course, drawing from our own human experiences.

Bringing life to these people and making them authentic and relatable will hopefully allow you to experience Jesus the way they did.

I will say that her character has shown me a lot about how to be a godly wife. The scene where she is confronting him gave me tips on how to handle being disappointed in a spouse while also encouraging them to be the person God purposed them to be. She corrected him and respected him at the same time. It was a very good example. Love her character

[BadWolfSilence]

Every man wants a wife like her, but not every man is willing to be a godly husband. Be what you want to attract.

[TheHonorofKings]

I’ve never watched a show where I love so many of the characters as much as I love these ones! Y’all nailed it!

The part where Simon and Eden arguing are too real to remember that it was acting.
God is so good.

I love how beautifully and tenderly this character is written. No one else could have played this part. We feel like we know her and want to learn from her... Then Jesus says, “I see you, Eden.” And I am a puddle in the floor because I feel like he would say that to each of us who feel like life is happening and we are getting swept up and forgotten in the tide of chaos... just like Eden in that moment.

[MGGC]

She's using her talents to glorify God. 💜

[Deba]

I absolutely LOVE "Eden!" She is perfect, her inner and outer beauty just radiate through her character!

[bsdetjack]

I Wonder if these actors know how much they are appreciated in a time such as this. It is almost like God annointed this show for this time.

[mrs.hannahchiang]

when Eden was supportive of Simon following Jesus.... i cried so much. what a wife!!!! 🌼 such an example!

[alexavasquez]

I love how this show doesn't portray women as weak, demure, and purely submissive

[ellenmcgehee]

Such a sunny pure presence she has...and an iron fist in a velvet glove.

[vivienetiu]

Wow I loooveee how she prayed to the Lord before her performance. You can clearly see God's work!!

[mrs.hannahchiang]

sweetness... tenderness... strength... what a beautiful combination to have💗

[Timelesshero]

Eden really puts in perspective what a Godly Man should be looking for in a Godly Woman.

[kristinacleveland]

She is the perfect person to play this role. She is so expressive when she delivers her lines. You see every emotion in her eyes and face. Also, I love her character...tender, fiesty, strong, compassionate, supportive, loving...and above all else, her love for the Lord comes first.
Much love from Nova Scotia, Canada!

I had a shocking realization. I've watched a lot of these clips (love em), and realize the atmosphere that is embodied in the comment section. I like to read these comments almost as much as watching the acting. Every one of your comments are from the heart and I believe are promptings from the Holy Ghost. It is so out of this world. Thanks for lifting me. No where is there any mention of the divisive political deeds that make the click-bait news. Everyone here seems genuinely interested in the success of everyone else. Whether in the production booth, the acting cast, bearing testimony of love for our Savior, or sharing bright uplifting insights. It feels good and it gives me hope that some of the darkness and despair and depression in this world is being overcome. Cheers to you my Chosen family

[Arthur.H.Studio]

Just can't get over the fantastic job of casting of this show. And this young lady really made it real!

[Irene_Mirasi]

it is always internally satisfying to hear the actors talking about their faith in Jesus and their relationship with Him in and through the sets
awesome work.

[josephbadger]

She is spectacular, said as a father with an amazing daughter her age. When she spoke the line to Simon about being the man she met instead of attacking him as the world would expect, it showed not only astonishing strength and conviction, but also a relentless grace and love. It was a true God-scene where He comes through exactly the opposite of what the world expects. My wife has done this for me. It is humbling and inspiring at the same time. It also makes me love my wife even more.

[IjaneaJoseph]

She’s that help mate as the Lord calls women to be for their husbands
