“That’s a Wrap!” – TMIY Filming in New Studios
Earlier this year, Paradisus Dei moved into new office space in Houston, TX. Among its many features – a chapel, a large multimedia conference room, expanded professional workspace, dedicated offices and storage – is a brand new, built-in studio. Large enough to house the TMIY set with room to spare, this studio was put to great use last week during the filming of two semesters of TMIY.
The studio includes a production room, a viewing room, and workspace for the production team. All the spaces were humming with activity as Steve Bollman and crew filmed 26 sessions of TMIY in just one week. Not only did everything go extremely well, the onsite studio facilities resulted in improved production quality.
The filming introduced new content – including an entirely new Year 2 spring semester – updated existing content and “refreshed” the look and feel of That Man is You! Set updates, interactive displays, lighting features and redesigned graphics are just some of the features the men currently in TMIY Years 1 (Becoming a Man After God’s Own Heart) and 2 (The Unveiling of Love) will experience this firsthand in the Spring Semester 2018!
The studio is just one example of Paradisus Dei’s commitment to bringing life-transforming programming to families at a fraction of the cost and time of “normal” production. This studio, and the programming it produces, demonstrate the stewardship of funds entrusted to Paradisus Dei through the program appeals. We thank you for your prayerful generosity and look forward to providing future updates on the continued studio build-out and usage.

The Choice Wine: 7 Steps to a Superabundant Marriage
Most married couples remember the time before their wedding as full of preparations. Then the wedding and honeymoon come and go like a flash, and before you know it, the couple is re-immersed in everyday life. So, too, are all the people who helped plan the wedding! Many couples are left to answer the question, “so…what next?”
Whether or not this sounds familiar, and whether or not it took just days or years as a couple to ask that question, The Choice Wine is a great answer to the question, “so…what next?” Introducing the 7 Steps to a Superabundant Marriage, The Choice Wine teaches couples the steps to having the kind of marriage that God intended for them, from the beginning of time! Consisting of nine sessions, The Choice Wine offers the flexibility to be done at the Church, in a small group meeting in the home of a host couple, as an individual couple or as a weekend retreat. And couples love it!
“You have to do it. You absolutely have to do it, for your marriage, for your family. It’s a must…”
