DALLAS—December 16, 2015—From the frontlines of parenting, 12 modern families help audiences apply timeless faith in Parent Compass—the Telly Award-winning Christian parenting series and ministry launching online March 4.
Across 12 first episodes, covering multiple ethnicities and income levels, in Parent Compass mothers and fathers talk about their own upbringings and pasts, marriage and life management, child rearing–and faith . . . all with undaunted candor. “There are times when you don’t think you will make it through the storm,” one father admits. Another comment: “Sometimes when I rate myself . . . can you go below zero?” Parent Compass Founder & President Natalie Jones, a mother of five, knows this one-of-a-kind series offers the hope today’s mom and dads need. “Parents feeling overwhelmed and isolated now have true stories of God’s peace amidst endless difficulties,” she said. Families featured in Parent Compass range from the Pitts, whose four daughters include Alena, the jump-roping child star of this year’s hit movie, THE WAR ROOM . . . to Mark and Shanell Rusk, raising a blended family of 11 in a Habitat for Humanity home they helped build. Audiences will meet the Kos, teaching fine art and raising kids out of one suburban home, and single mom Cindy, who initially three times scheduled an abortion for her now seven-year-old daughter. Parent Compass families cover issues and triumphs from “How do I raise this little girl?” to a teen picked up by police, from job loss to forgiveness and peace.
“Parent Compass parents open their homes and families to let their lives encourage, inspire and empower,” Jones said. “On the Parent Compass website, meanwhile, parents may request prayer and, with each episode, go deeper with more information. “No one has to parent alone,” Jones added. “God, Christ and the Holy Spirit are waiting for us to ask for help.” Jones is founder and president of Parent Compass, the Christian Parenting not-for-profit series and ministry. Each of the current 12 episodes is produced and directed by Nathan Todd Sims of Fusion Productions. Based in Irving, Texas, the 20-year-old company producing film, television and corporate projects has 31 Telly Awards. Besides online distribution, Parent Compass seeks distribution deals with both English and Spanish-language cable networks. All Parent Compass episodes will run on ParentCompass.tv “For encouragement in daily family life, meet real parents in real homes, working to walk with God.
