(Atlanta, GA) Writer / Showrunner Thea Casey (Thea Casey Media, LLC) has inked a deal to stream her original TV series "The Christians" on Pure Flix. 

The SONY-owned streaming platform airs exclusive family-oriented programming, and was a good fit for Casey's faith-based series.

In the 5-episode season, sixteen-year-old Harper Marie Christian’s deepest desire is to have her dysfunctional family worship God,  not realizing the secret she’s hiding is the answer to her prayers.

The half-hour drama is led by a strong ensemble of up-and-coming Atlanta-based talent including Allie L. Harris, Kenisha Johnson, Topher Fredd, Anthony R. Page, Cheryl Frazier, Michelle L. Lamb, and Dexter Matthews.

Shaun M. Mathis, the leader of a weekly writer's room helped Thea adapt her novel of the same name into a screenplay. "I wanted to see Thea win....she was just a genuine person, excited about her project and I wanted to help her see it to the end." 

Mathis, through his company Laconic Productions, would later serve as director for the series with support from a strong production team that included Alisha Dominique, who also directed some of the episodes.

I typically take the time to do somewhat of an after-action report to assess what I did well the previous week and what could be better. It's my commitment to continuous improvement.  As my business has grown, I find myself engaging with larger and much more diverse groups. Not just in the typical demographics of race, gender, and age, but more in the uniqueness of how they think, what they prioritize, and how they engage in business.  I don't talk as much as I used to. I find myself more often than not stepping back and observing, listening, absorbing, and discerning.
