Does anyone remember Guidepost Junction?

Posted on 10/09/2024 6:00:20 PM PDT by Dante78

I remember watching this show as a kid in the 90s, it was a Christian-themed show for children hosted by Jodi Benson (Ariel from The Little Mermaid) where she teaches kids stories from the Bible and moral lessons in general. It really made an impression on me but it seems like few people remember it.

I loved that show. I remember Petticoat Junction, that must be the one after Guidepost.

As a young man (boy, really) the image you paint above and my daily dose of Ginger and MaryAnn convinced me I wasn’t gay.

Was it connected to the Guideposts magazine? It's been around for a long time. Wikipedia says the magazine was founded in 1945 by Norman Vincent Peale.

Here's an ordained Presbyterian minister with a TV show whom we loved in our family, on a cover in 1980:
