It's time for my September Pure Flix recommendation! As an ambassador for this Christian streaming service, I can tell you that it's the number one place to find quality Christian television shows and movies that you'll enjoy watching with your whole family. This means both adult series' to children's programming, including the super popular kids show, Veggie Tales.
This time around, I was able to preview "Legacy Peak", a Pure Flix original film with an all-star cast. Jason is a man with a plan – all the plans in fact. But when a surprise trip with his girlfriend's children crashes and burns, they’ll all discover if he’s father material or not. This film is going to touch the hearts of blended families and appeal to those who like adventure movies, too.
Synopsis
Jason is on an adventure to win the hearts of Noelle’s kids before they marry. The plan for them to fly to her parent’s cabin days before she wraps up work quickly falls apart and the adventure turns to a struggle to survive before this new family can start a life together.
