Keeping House is a wide-ranging and witty exploration of the spiritual gifts that are gained when we take the time to care for hearth and home. With a fresh perspective, mother, wife, and teacher Margaret Kim Peterson examines the activities and attitudes of keeping house and making a home. Debunking the commonly held notion that keeping house is a waste of time or at best a hobby, Peterson uncovers the broader cultural and theological factors that make housekeeping an interesting and worthwhile discipline.

Keith Carradine and Annette O'Toole star in Keeping the Promise, a powerful family drama adapted from the best-selling novel The Sign Of The Beaver, by Elizabeth George Speare, that has become required reading in schools throughout the country. This film begins as a hopeful tale of a colonial family seeking a new and promising life in Maine's wilderness in 1768. Their hopes, dreams, and family survival are severely tested when the father reluctantly leaves his thirteen-year-old son, Matt, alone in the wilderness to protect their claim until he returns with the rest of the family. Weeks of waiting turn into months and months into seasons as his family struggles against a deadly epidemic and other hardships in their journey to rejoin their son. Young Matt's ability to survive his lonely and dangerous vigil becomes more questionable with each passing day, until a band of Penobscot Indians befriend him. The experience transforms Matt as his Indian benefactors teach him life's most important lessons about survival, trust, loyalty and hope.
