WHAT IF YOU MET GOD? HOW WOULD YOU BE TRANSFORMED AFTER HAVING DOUBTED HIS EXISTENCE?
By Judy Shields
Nick Shakoour releases new autobiography detailing encounters with the Holy Spirit – Transformer: Awakening From A Spiritual Coma. Nick is most known for his breakout role as Zebedee on the MovieGuide Award-winning series The Chosen. Nick has documented his conversion experience (sitting in his car he felt his body overcome by a physical tangible force) and the impact The Chosen has had on him in his autobiography. I am thankful that The Chosen helped Nick with spiritual experiences.

I had the opportunity to meet Nick in person at The Chosen Season 4 teal carpet screening event at the Ace Hotel, Los Angeles, back in January 2024. It was a fantastic teal carpet event and Nick sure looked stylish that day. We had a great conversation about his role as Zebedee. That day of meeting him and giving him my business card led to Nick reaching out to me via email to say hello and tell me about his new upcoming book release. It was a wonderful surprise to hear from Nick and I was excited to hear about his new autobiography. He was able to send me an autographed copy and I couldn’t put it down once I received it. We kept in touch and set up a Zoom interview about the book.
Here is that interview. Put on your favorite headphones and enjoy our conversation.
After listening to our conversation, order your copy of his book and you will find out what we were taking about in the interview. His story is worth telling and we all can learn a thing or to. Get extra copies for your Dad for the upcoming Father’s Day holiday and even a copy for Mother’s Day. The book will make a great present for any occasion, your next book club gathering, one for your local library and especially a few for your church library.
BUCKLE UP AND RIDE ALONGSIDE NICK AS YOU ESCAPE CIVIL WAR UPRISINGS IN THE MIDDLE EAST, FIND REFUGE IN A NEW COUNTRY, DIVE INTO A CHAOTIC ACTING CAREER, AND UNEXPECTEDLY ENCOUNTER THE CREATOR OF THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE!
GOD IS REAL, BUT HE’S NOT WHO YOU MIGHT THINK…
The book is officially out for sale now. Nick shared some photos of his book signing launch at Moon’s Rare Books in Utah. Looks like he had a great time and what an amazing looking book store.

About Nick Shakoour
“Nick’s inspiration to perform was ignited in the 4th grade when his physical education teacher (Rudy Benton) discovered his ability to transform in and out of the personas of faculty members through comedic voice impressions. Rudy urged the school principal to throw together an impromptu assembly, and within a few hours, Nick found himself on stage, ready to share his hidden talent publicly for the first time.
Nick portrays Zebedee on the MovieGuide Award-winning series, The Chosen. He has also starred in the Oscar-qualifying film Madaran (Mothers), recurred on NBC’s State of Affairs as Aleek Al Moosari, as a fan favorite, and voiced Grumpy Bear and Tenderheart Bear for the animated series Care Bears: Unlock The Magic. Nick is also the voice of Artichoke and Auntie Uncle on Netflix’s Emmy-nominated animated series Buddy Thunderstruck. He has voiced a plethora of interactive games, including Dying Light as the voice of Savvy and Bilal and Skylanders as the voice of Fling Kong”
