The Baxters

In order to love this series. I do hope it continues. God knows we need some decent programming to watch! Read the books first. The series will make much more sense if you do. It is a wonderful family drama. A family that is not perfect and has it's share of struggles but shows how God leads them through those struggles and never leaves them. God isn't looking for perfection. These stories portray that so well. The characters are fabulous if you will stick with this and hopefully they will give us more, I don't think you will regret watching it. Give it a chance. Write a re. It will definitely help.

I loved how this series of books that all began what seems like a lifetime ago (but in reality was closer to 20 years ago) are finally on film. While small things were changed as the book were written to film, the integrity (in my humble opinion) of the original author's work appears to be in tact. I couldn't wait to read each new book of the Redemption series when they originally were released. I recall rushing to the book store of library to read each new installment, and the same goes for these filmed episodes. Great to watch, wonderful characters who I hope to eventually see in more than 3 seasons of these episodes!

If you want to watch a clean, no sex, no alcohol, no foul language show then The Baxter's are for you! It is a wonderful family friendly show based around a family who loves, trusts, serves, and relies on God in every aspects of their lives. Through good times and bad they always seek God's face for wisdom and guidance. Who in this day and time doesn't want more faith based and family friendly entertainment?

This is a well written program based on Christian fiction author, Karen Kingsbury's "Baxter Family Series" books. It is very well written, with wonderful cast and an amazing production team. It draws you into the story lines and keeps you there.

The show follows the family of John and Elizabeth Baxter and their five children throughout their individual lives, relationships, and how they work through difficult and triumphant times individually and together, but always putting God first in everything they say and do.

I stumbled upon this series at a time in my life when I needed it the most. I think the show was a great example of how to navigate the struggles of life as a believer. I loved how they tackled some of the most controversial situations in life and demonstrated how to navigate it through faith, grace and forgiveness. The Christian walk is oftentimes filled with unanswered questions and moments of unbelief, but to see God's grace covering his children was so beautiful. As a result, my faith was increased and I hope to see more of the Baxters in the years to come. I hope there will be a season 4!

Not the quality I expect from Amazon. This show is cheesy, full of bad acting and even worse theology. Yet I continue to watch to find out what happens next and I know it's because episodes are only 20 minutes long. If I had to spend a full 40 minutes per episode I would have walked alway already. I am a fan of Christian fiction. I tried reading Karen Kingsbury years ago and found her books to be shallow. I was 3 episodes in when I saw that this series is based on her books and understood why I'm not crazy about this series. I have one exception to this review - Ted McGinley. His does a great job but he cannot carry the entire series on his shoulders.
