# 259: DALLAS JENKINS directs his next project where chaos meets Christmas on its way to becoming a classic

CIA: Contagious Influencers of America

Silent night - hold on tight! Imagine this: "the worst kids in the history of the world" crashing your town's Christmas pageant? Would you turn them away, or show them the true spirit of Christmas? That's the heart of the new film, "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever," directed by Dallas Jenkins, the creator behind "The Chosen." In an interview with nine-time Emmy winner David Sams, Jenkins dives into his journey of adapting the beloved book for the big screen, aiming to create a Christmas classic that mixes laughter with the timeless story of the Nativity. He also opens up about his personal challenges as a filmmaker, reflecting on a past project that didn’t meet expectations, and how that experience shaped his perspective on success—reminding us that true success comes from glorifying God, not from meeting worldly standards. See "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever" in theaters on November 8th. Tickets available now at https://bestchristmaspageantever.movie/
