In the days before television, children learned primarily by observing and imitating parents, other family members, and members of the community. In the past few decades, television has grown in prevalence in our society. These days, it's hard to find programs on TV that fit with your family's belief system and morals. Founded by award-winning producer/director Ken Carpenter, a home-schooling father of eight children, Franklin Springs is committed to being your trusted source for quality family media.  Franklin Springs brings years of broadcast-quality production experience, a team of dedicated production personnel, and High Definition production standards to each new film.  Carpenter describes the films as more than just "family safe" – but "family encouraging and edifying". "We're approaching our films in a little different way," he said. "Yes, we want to appeal to families, but not just in terms of making them laugh, or giving them an engaging story." Now doesn't that sound refreshing?

Franklin Springs Family Media has the goal of providing families with top-quality DVDs that encourage the building and strengthening of God-honoring family values.  Franklin Springs produces original films that provide a picture of the exciting reformation that's happening in families across the country - fathers serving and loving their families, mothers embracing the high calling of raising children, and children enjoying the adventure of growing up in a family seeking God's best for their home.
