Food for Faith Launches 1st Christian Dramatic TV Series on the Internet
Fine Church Girls is a new internet TV series launched on Easter Sunday. It blurs the lines between reality and fiction, and takes place in a real church with a real clergy family involved in the story lines, which are all entirely scripted. Join Teal, Spencer, Victoria, Blanca and the rest of the cast of Fine Church Girls as they help us to laugh, cry, pray and hope while convincing us through their adventures and misadventures that faith is worth it.
Los Angeles, CA, March 27, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Food for Faith, a Christian teaching and media ministry based in Los Angeles, has released on Easter Sunday a fresh new addition to the growing internet webisode landscape. Fine Church Girls follows the lives of four young women who come together in a ‘FaithTeam’ at an Inglewood church, as they pursue the max in life while attempting to stay true to their ‘faith,’ as they understand it.
“We want people to know that the life of faith is worth it,” explains Earl Middleton, Fine Church Girls’ creator, and founder of Food for Faith. “In our culture, faith is often depicted as a neat little one-size-fits-all box. In this show, the characters confront real issues, trudge through many of life’s sewers, and eventually come out on the other side with a tested, relevant faith, and a conviction that life was meant to be lived God’s way.”
Despite being completely scripted, the show’s format still manages to blur the line between reality and fiction. Some of the characters actually play themselves, dropped into fictional situations in the show’s world, which looks a lot like the world of Food for Faith; because it actually is. Although shot all over the greater Los Angeles area, the show is rooted in the real life of a real congregation with a real clergy family in the mix. “I struggled with the concept in the beginning,” admits Pascale Middleton, who plays herself as the pastor’s wife in Fine Church Girls. “It felt like we were letting people into our secret lives.”
Three of the ‘fine church girls’ are in their early 20s and pursuing degrees. The fourth is a young mother with toddlers at home, yet they managed to carve out time to commit to a grueling production schedule as they worked to launch the show on Easter. “We all get along so well that it’s a joy to take time out of our busy schedules to come and do this kind of ministry,” says Naivasha Williams, 30ish, and the only church girl who lives outside of LA.
Shot in 22 minute segments ala sitcoms in broadcast television, Fine Church Girls is really a dramedy being released exclusively for an internet audience in 6 to 8 minute webisodes every Sunday on its website, www.finechurchgirls.com, as well as its myspace page, www.myspace.com/finechurchgirls.
“The new buzzword in the media world is ‘content,’” observes Middleton. “And the new frontier is the internet. We believe God has given us a mandate to publish the gospel in every arena using all available means until the kingdoms of this world become the kingdom of our Lord and His Christ. We’re just doing our part to get God’s content into the new frontier in a format that will be received.”
