"...we're not in an actual church (Eli Schlatter's blandly ugly set looks exactly like something you'd see on TV). Their performances are utterly natural: Pullam's Joshua, movingly revealing why he can't follow Paul; Brittany Parker's halting Jenny, who feels betrayed by Paul's shift; Bonni Allen's Elizabeth, whose fumbling for words feels nothing like an actor stumbling over lines and everything like a person who is painfully unsure what she's going to say next."

How Was The Show - Recommended
"...Nevertheless, while some of the transitions and exposition may lack, the meatier conversations of the show do not-these exchanges are engaging, effective, and at times heartbreaking. They admirably dive deep into a topic most avoid at all costs and invite audiences to do the same. Ultimately, and without sermonizing, The Christians leaves its congregants, regardless of their worldview, with lots to pray about."
