🚜❤️ Fresh Off the Farm:: NEW Poster Released for 'Grounded in Love' Starring Danica McKellar & Trevor Donovan


( image: Great American Media - click to enlarge


Great American Family just released this heartwarming new poster for their upcoming original movie, 'Grounded in Love,' and I couldn’t resist sharing it with y’all!

As a country girl myself, the farm setting in the poster immediately captured my heart with the red barn, stacks of hay, the old-fashioned windmill, and that peaceful country charm. It just feels like home to me. Perhaps, some of you feel the same!

When the movie airs...

'Grounded in Love' will first premiere on Great American Pure Flix starting Thursday, August 7th. Then, you can catch it on cable when it airs on Great American Family, Saturday, September 27th, at 8 p.m. ET.

Here’s the sweet storyline Great American Media shared: "'Grounded in Love' follows Annie (Danica McKellar), a NYC flight attendant whose life is upended by a career setback and breakup. Seeking clarity, she returns to her grandmother’s Kentucky farm, where reconnecting with childhood friend Jake (Trevor Donovan) helps her rediscover faith, family, and a love that’s truly grounded.✨"

I love that the title 'Grounded in Love' has so many layers of meaning, just like Danica briefly shared during their recent Facebook Live. Grounded refers to her character, a flight attendant, who’s spending some much-needed time back on solid ground. It also speaks to the setting as Annie returns to her roots on the family farm. And even more beautifully, grounded reflects the emotional journey both Annie and Jake take as they become more grounded in their faith, their feelings, and the life they’re meant to live.

Be sure to look for this movie in September on Great American Family! I'll also be sharing other movie premieres coming in September... so stay tuned!

Lifetime’s Summer Film Lineup is Filled with Faith & Suspense – Watch the Trailers Here




Lifetime is premiering four films in July and August that focus on women who lean on their faith to get through difficult times and unexpected challenges.

I previously mentioned these films by sharing Lifetime's press release in June, but I also wanted to give these films a space where I could post their individual posters, video promos, and any movie reviews that may come in after they air.

Please note: The trailers shared below contain some intense scenes, violence, and adult situations that are not meant for young children.

The Christian radio station KLove promoted the third film, Finding Faith, when it premiered in theaters on June 16th for one day only.

Here's a closer look at these upcoming Lifetime movie premieres that include faith & suspense...



******************





Faith in the Flames: The Nichole Jolly Story

Premiere Date: July 19, 2025

Starring: Chrissy Metz and Colin Moss

Storyline: Nichole Jolly is a nurse at the town’s hospital, who begins her day as usual, only to face an unimaginable crisis when a wildfire rapidly engulfs the town. Torn between her duty to protect her patients and her desperate need to find her husband Nick, (Colin Moss) and children, Nichole discovers an unyielding strength within herself to save not only her family but countless residents from the encroaching flames. The film is a tribute to the indomitable human spirit and the unsung heroes who emerge in the face of tragedy.

Before Your Father Finds Us

Premiere Date: July 26, 2025

Starring: Alexa PenaVega, Jaeda Lily Miller, and Tahmoh Penikett

Storyline: Sophia (Alexa PenaVega) and baby daughter, Emily, are forced to go into witness protection after she has to testify against her ex-husband Mason (Tahmoh Penikett) for his crimes. After years of living a seemingly normal life with new friends and relationships, Sophia learns that Mason has escaped from his maximum security prison. Knowing his strength and connections, Sophia is forced to reveal the truth to her now teenage daughter about who her father really is – and having to leave everything behind. Escaping to an old remote cabin in the woods together, Sophia and Emily must do everything it takes to survive Mason and his ruthless intent to make the family whole again.

Terri Blackstock’s If I Run

Premiere Date: August 2, 2025

Starring: Kat Graham, Evan Roderick, and James Tupper

Storyline: Adapted from best-selling author Terri Blackstock’s book, If I Run follows Casey Cox (Kat Graham), a woman on the run after discovering her best friend Brent has been murdered—and she is being framed for it. Not knowing who to trust, Casey flees, using her intelligence and resourcefulness to stay hidden and the signs of divine guidance to help her in her journey. Meanwhile, Dylan Roberts (Evan Roderick), a war-weary veteran and private investigator with PTSD, is hired to track her down. As Dylan digs deeper into the case, he begins to suspect that Casey might actually be innocent and that the real story is far more complex—and dangerous—than it first appeared.

Promo:







******************





Finding Faith

Premiere Date: August 9, 2025

Starring: Paula Patton, Loretta Devine, Stephen Bishop, Nadine Velazquez, Demetrius Grosse, and Keith David

Storyline: Struck by a sudden death of her husband, Faith (Paula Patton) spirals out of control and loses her trust in God. But with the unwavering support of her family, pastor and close friends, Faith starts to find her way out of the darkness and into the light, rebuilding her life one step at a time.

The Brothers are Back: All New "Three Wise Men" Movie Coming to the Hallmark Channel this Christmas




During tonight's airing of "Unwrapping Christmas: Mia’s Prince," Hallmark revealed that an all-new "Three Wise Men" movie starring Andrew Walker, Tyler Hynes, and Paul Campbell titled "Three Wisest Men" is coming this Christmas season to Countdown to Christmas. This is the third movie in the "Three Wise Men" series.

Andrew Walker recently shared on social media that he would be filming soon, so it's possible he was referring to this movie.

Hallmark shared this memorable scene of the Wise brothers doing their festive dance. I have a feeling it will somehow be included in the third movie, as well.



What are your thoughts on a third "Three Wise Men" movie? Please share in comments below.

Have a Joyful Day!

Happy Saturday, everyone! I just had to share these two exciting new promos that Great American Family released today!

The first one, featured in my main image above, is Timeless Tidings of Joy, starring Candace Cameron Bure, Paul Greene, and Natasha Bure! I’m especially thrilled about this one since it takes us all the way back to 1945 for a magical Christmas journey through time!

The visuals already remind me of It’s a Wonderful Life, A Biltmore Christmas, Journey Back to Christmas, and even possibly a touch of Back to the Future- all rolled into one! I have a strong feeling this heartwarming film is going to be a standout favorite this holiday season!


Enjoy the new preview from Great American Family:



Doesn't this look fantastic? It was so fun to catch this new preview for Timeless Tidings of Joy airing on GAF this morning as I was watching classic Christmas movies. Have you seen it today as well?

And speaking of new promos, a couple of my friends on social media, DonoFANS and blessedgigi23, shared the exciting news that GAF announced in a new commercial running today that Trevor Donovan will be starring in a new Great American Family Christmas film coming this year. The movie will be announced soon.

See the promo shared by DonoFANS on X:
