Great American Pure Flix Recommendations
Starting 2/23, watch new episodes of County Rescue on the Great American Pureflix, every Friday. This family-friendly series follows the life of an EMC unit and their journey through life, faith, and friendships. The series opens with Dani questioning her decision to obey God's calling to be an EMT, and how He lovingly shows us, through experiences, that she is where she needs to be.

When Kelsey was left at the altar, it felt like her world came crashing down, and there didn't seem to be a way things could get better. A mission trip introduction meeting at church changed all that, and a seemingly quick move to take up the position as a teacher in Taiwan, a country she had never been to before, exposure to a new culture, language and even profession slowly progressed to become a beautiful culmination of God moving and orchestrating pieces to bring beauty out of her ashes. This sweet movie is a reminder that when things seem hopeless, we need to remember that we have a God of all hope.
Listen to director Sydney Tooley's interview and how the movie is, in a way, an autobiographical story : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UX0a9X4DEcg

For Elise, a grandma hurt by her past, and Patrick, a widowed pastor, love is the last thing on their minds. But an unexpected encounter in Elise's shop, Moxie, changes that. Well, not immediately, but more comedic mishaps help lead this along. The movie also features the sweet relationship shared by Elise and the grandson she raised, Derek, and how she has to learn to let go and allow Derek his independence.
This movie has several storylines running alongside each other that eventually intertwine to make Heaven Sent a message of trust in God's plans and the story of love. If we had to choose one Bible passage on which this movie's foundation is built upon, it would be 1 Corinthians 13.

When Scott Beck was younger, all eyes were on him to be the next NBA pick, but things turned out otherwise. Fast forward a good number of years and the 39-year-old janitor is doing anything but living that dream.
When the Silver Knights owner (Beck's high-school sweetheart) announces open tryouts for her failing team, the kids in the high school and his best friend and pastoral hopeful, Nick, encourage Beck to try out despite being the oldest player on the court!
The movie centers around the theme of God's Timing and how circumstances in the past don't determine the beauty of the present if we remind ourselves that God's Grace can orchestrate all things together beautifully if we allow Him to take control.

Synopsis: Angels are amongst us and God has sent them on a mission to intercede on behalf of whispered prayers. Every encounter presents a new opportunity to change your approach to life. There are no chance meetings or coincidences in life.
The series features 2 angels on assignment - Grace and Jeremiah- who step into situations and people's lives just when they need that gentle "look up and trust" nudge.
The episodes center around life situations that include forgiveness, financial struggles, and grief.I love that the series is a precious reminder that we never know when angels cross our paths and how God's Hand continues to orchestrate everything in our lives, even when things feel uncertain.* Grace's quote aligns with the verse I shared yesterday. God's never late.
The series reminded me of the car accident I was in with the kids. I truly believe God sent us angels: https://mommysnippets.com/but-god/
So thankful that He gives angels charge over us to keep us in all our ways. (Psalm 91:11)

When businesswoman Janie learns she's becoming a mom, her excitement with the new baby is quickly smothered by her drive to give everything at work her all. Thanks to a little help from a guardian angel she slowly learns the importance of slowing down, getting her priorities straight, and being a present mom, wife, and daughter.
A beautiful movie to remind us of what's important in life.
And no, running feverishly in the rat race is not on that list!
May the heart of this movie be that little whisper to not lose sight of what's important and not take anything for granted.

This movie centers around Steve's journey from being a busy businessman and dad to becoming the supportive, connected dad he so wants to be to his three beautiful, strong daughters. It doesn't help that one of his daughters comes home after college to announce she's getting married to a missionary and moving to serve in a different country!
Filled with funny pockets and times of reflection, many of us with older kids will relate a lot to this movie.
I'm not going to share any spoilers but will share my favorite few lines from the movie-"Daughters are gifts from God,but they're not for us to keep. They're for us to guide, love, teach...and then let go. You can trust God with her future."

Going Home centers around family, faith and salvation. The main character, Charley, works in Sunset Home not because she has to, but because she wants to. Knowing that her calling is to serve everyone under her hospice care and be God's Hands and Feet as they transition from this life, is of utmost importance to her.
I watched episode 4 sometime in June and love the heart behind this episode.
(Psst! I recommend a box of tissues closeby and a book to write down little "life lessons" that pop out to you during the episode.)
Loved how Charly shares this with Ms. Fay, a reminder for all of us- "Life can be unfair. You learn tools to get you through - humility kindness forgiveness...a gift of God that helps us live in a world that isn't fair."
My big take-home from this episode?
Relationships (with God and man) and forgiveness will ALWAYS supercede any material wealth.
Introduce your family to some of my family's Christmas favorites that celebrate the Nativity.
Celebrate this Christmas season with over 190 movies to inspire and encourage the whole family. You’ll experience the difference that positive entertainment can have. I have so many oldie-goldie favorites that celebrate the Christmas story. My favorites are those Veggie Tales classics like Merry Larry and the True Light of Christmas, The Drummer Boy, It's a Meaningful Life, The Star of Christmas, The Toy That Saved Christmas, and Saint Nicholas.
My kids grew up on these fun-filled musicals with a beautiful story foundation. It's easy for our families to get swept up with Christmas's busyness (and, yes, business!).
Consider taking the days leading up to Christmas to slow down with your family, make special Christmas memories in the kitchen baking cookies, and, yes, settle down to watch these and many more Christmas story-inspired movies on Pure Flix.
