Making Faith Matter in Children's Media: "We just really want to help kids and families experience Jesus together through the media that they consume. Because we know kids are consuming lots of media, and parents, you know, it's a struggle because you want it to matter. You want it to be good media."

Why Are Families Staying Faithful?
"All these people are leaving the faith. Why aren't we? I mean, we experienced a lot of loss. We lost four babies and two moms, and both of our moms in the span of five years."

Elevating Christian Kids Media  
Quote: "We're so focused on making sure that kids have all of the same really excellent, educationally appropriate, age appropriate shows that you would see on a PBS Kids or a Sesame, but through a faith lens."

Dual Language Kids' TV Shows  
"We have a brand new show called Guillermo and Will and it is a dual language preschool show with two little puppet worms. Guillermo speaks Spanish and Will speaks English and they're the best friends... kids are going to learn in every episode three to four words in English and Spanish so they can understand both languages."

Jesus’ Love for Children: "one of my favorite things about the show is just the really sweet, gentle interaction between Jesus and the children. And I really hope that's something that kids take away... To know, like, that is how Jesus feels about children."
— Jess Wolstenholm [00:20:51 → 00:21:10]
