Stories That Unite, Inspire, and Illuminate History
Welcome to Relaunch Productions – where visionary storytelling comes to life.
Our Mission & Vision
Uncovering America’s Untold Stories to Inspire Faith and Unity
Relaunch Productions is devoted to sharing faith-based stories of powerful but often overlooked American historical events. We believe that by translating these sagas into compelling films and TV series, we can spark conversations, bridge cultural divides, and remind viewers of the deeper truths that bind us all.
Our Founders

David and Anita founded Relaunch Productions with a singular passion: to cast light on lesser-known moments in American history where faith and perseverance shaped extraordinary outcomes. Anita’s dedication to historical research and community advocacy (serving as founder and president of the Friends of the Abbie Gardner Cabin Organization) ensures that each project remains anchored in authenticity and empathy. David’s steadfast support and shared enthusiasm have been vital from day one.
