"… We Can Transform One Family at a Time…"

FamilyLife is the next National Partner in the October Baby credits.

Some interesting characteristics of FamilyLife:

  • They are a part of Cru; Campus Crusade for Christ.
  • A part of their mission is, "We may not be able to transform every family all at the same time, but we can start with one family."
  • They are in 100 countries
  • Their FamilyLIfe Today radio program is heard on hundreds of radio stations daily across the US
  • FamilyLife consists of a volunteer network of more than 10,000 members
  • Many are helping FamilyLife reach families by serving as city ministry directors for a marriage conference or by leading a HomeBuilders Couples Series study.
  • Another part of their mission is to "effectively develop godly marriages and families who change the world one home at a time."
  • Each year approximately 100 FamilyLife Weekend to Remember conferences will be held in almost every major city in America.


Here's an interesting quote from their website…  "For decades now we have been ministering to couples and families with our radio broadcasts, events and our resources.  Recently though our attention has shifted to minister with you by focusing on adding resources that you can use to reach your friends, neighbors, co-workers, and community."

It's great to connect with a ministry that offers a major media presence.  FamilyLIfe goes beyond that in they offer a presence in thousands of small groups across 100 countries.  This is a great network in which to utilize your film as a ministry tool, which will live beyond a theatrical strategy and touch people's lives into the future.  

Consider approaching a group like FamilyLife (one that shares the vision of your film) to use your film and combine it with a small group study that you (or they) would write.  This is a fresh way to reinforce Biblical truths using something people will love; your film.
