Pure Flix Announces New Series SAVED BY GRACE
By Movieguide® Contributor
Pure Flix has just announced a new series, SAVED BY GRACE, which will be hitting their streaming service on Nov. 6.
The 5-episode series follows the story of two angels on Earth, answering prayers and changing people’s lives.
A synopsis of the show reads, “There are no chance meetings or coincidences in life. 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.”
SAVED BY GRACE stars Cameron Arnett as the angel Jeremiah and Jennifer Taylor as the angel Grace.
“Angels are still relevant today – they walk amongst us and are here to serve us and to bring about God’s intent in our daily lives,” said Arnett. “The show explores authentic stories that people can really connect to.”
He continued, “Movies and shows have a tendency to focus on redemption, but rarely show what we are being redeemed from. With SAVED BY GRACE you start at the beginning of the character’s story, where the good and bad sometimes are, and see a transformation.”
Taylor jumped in, saying, “This new show is so timeless. On the one hand, you have angels that have been around forever. On the other, we’re dealing with modern-day issues. All the situations highlight current problems, but at the core, they are heart issues we’ve been dealing with since the fall, and I hope viewers realize they aren’t alone in those struggles.”
Movieguide® previously reported on the growing popularity of Pure Flix:
Sony’s Affirm division is set to acquire Pure Flix’s streaming video on demand service today.
“Pure Flix is a natural fit with our AFFIRM brand, which is known for its high quality, uplifting, inspirational content,” said Keith Le Goy, President, Networks and Distribution, Sony Pictures Entertainment. “We love creating and sharing stories that are both impactful and entertaining, and the PureFlix service will enable us to do more of that every day. Pure Flix has done an amazing job building a robust community of engaged subscribers, and we look forward to continuing to grow and delight audiences with well-curated faith and family entertainment.”
According to a release, AFFIRM Entertainment, Inc. will own 100% of the Pure Flix SVOD service, which provides inspirational movies and TV series to subscribers in the U.S. and Canada, pending regulatory and other approvals. The acquisition only applies to the streaming video on demand service.
“For over 15 years, Pure Flix has strived and succeeded to bring faith and family entertainment to our loyal audiences,” said Michael Scott, CEO of Pure Flix. “We are thrilled with the creative opportunities and the ability to reach a broader audience through this agreement with AFFIRM Entertainment. We want to express our heartfelt gratitude to our longtime Pure Flix supporters as we continue to bring them inspirational and high-quality content in the years ahead.”
Scott, who is a Pure Flix founding partner, will join AFFIRM Entertainment, Inc. and continue to oversee the day-to-day management of the service, following the deal closure.
Pure Flix Chief Content Officer and founding partner David A. R. White will also join AFFIRM Entertainment as the Head of Outreach and Special Projects of the service. Scott and White will work closely with AFFIRM Films and Television in the development and production of future programming for the service.
Both the Pure Flix and Affirm brands continually produce faith-filled content that affirms a strong biblical worldview. Their movies are often recognized at the Movieguide® Awards Gala and Report to the Entertainment Industry.
