To say I am over the moon is an understatement! Finally the series of books I have loved reading by Karen Kingsbury will make it to the screen!

Prime Video has acquired family drama series “The Baxters” from LightWorkers Media as it extends it’s content reach in the faith-based arena.

Roma Downey will executive produce and star in the series as matriarch Elizabeth Baxter while “Shrinking” actor Ted McGinley stars opposite Downey as John Baxter.

“The Baxters,” which is set to debut on the streamer in spring 2024, is based on Karen Kingsbury’s book series of the same name that follows Elizabeth and John Baxter and their five adult children.

The first season of the series centers on Elizabeth and John’s daughter, Kari, who learns that her husband, Tim, has been having an affair with a college student that he teaches. “As her relationship is tested, Kari must seek comfort in her faith and family to discover if love is truly a choice and if her marriage can be redeemed,” the official logline reads.
