This sounds great! Are you a Christian group?
Thanks for responding, Sharon! To answer your question:
1) A lot of us who work on the project are Jesus-followers (some denominational, some not)
2) The show is inspired by the “Fruit of the Spirit” in the Bible
3) We’re designing a package to go along with the videos to be used as an effective children’s ministry curriculum
There may in fact exist better words to describe us than as exclusively “Christian.” Though many of us do hold our own personal faiths, we hope everyone can enjoy Fresh Fruit Pie, whatever their religious beliefs!
