I have always loved Danica as Winnie, and more recently in her Hallmark movies. My heart is happy knowing that she is also my sister in Christ now. Merry Christmas, ladies!
So happy for Danica to know the Lord! I grew up in church and can't remember a time I didn't know the good news. it's so nice to see her excitement.
You both were why I watched hallmark...thank you for staying true to your faith
I love Danica’s such excitement and enthusiasm over her newly relationship in finding Jesus!
Danica is such an accomplished person all around. Brilliant mathematician, author, talented actress. She and Candace are living proof that young actors do not have to go bad and turn to drugs and alcohol.
So amazing that Candace had an impact on Danakas journey with Christ. I LOVE the way God uses the ordinary things of life to reach others!!!! Awesomeness
My favorite from Danica is “Crown for Christmas” and Candace “Journey Back to Christmas”. Beautiful ladies! And… more importantly, sisters in the. Lord. The strong bond of friendship and faith. Will be amazing to someday soon to meet you both in our forever home.
Wow, I have such joy in my heart to know that Danika is a follower of Christ by Faith.
Such a beautiful testament to how Jesus deepens the bonds of casual friendship. So grateful for the example you both set in sharing the Holy Spirit openly, joyfully and with such excitement.

Absolutely!!❤
What a beautiful testimony!!! So thrilling!!
@Candace, *I heard you gave Danika a Bible and she became a believer soon after!!* I’ve prayed for her a lot to find our Jesus over the past couple of years. She has the most precious spirit, and this makes me SO happy. I can’t wait to listen to this!!❤️❤️
Just like Danica, it was Candace who led me to our Lord and made me a Christian! She also gave me a bible too, it was her (in)Courage bible she released with Dayspring years ago. I've become a different person since I found my faith and have more purpose now in my life as well. I'll always be forever grateful to Candace for teaching her faith with me😘💜

I’m emotional learning that Danica now follows Jesus. What a blessing!
This is so beautiful to see. Both stars I admired as a kid now walking with the Lord Jesus Christ 😢. God is so good
I did not know Danica had come to The Lord. I started crying when she shared that!
I love Danica’s zeal for the Lord!!!!
No question… Danica has Jesus in her heart! In love with Him! So precious!
I love Danica’s pure joy for the Lord. So good to know she’s my sister too, now! Merry Christmas to you both. ❤❤❤❤
You ladies are both an inspiration!🥰🧡
It is such a blessing to see a newer believer desire to learn, love and grow. 💚💚

LOVE That!!!!
Hi Candace. It's so lovely to hear Danica's testimony. We have been enjoying all the GAC Christmas movies. We loved A Christmas Present and Christmas at the Drive In. You and Danica should do a movie together sometime. Praise God for His saving grace. Merry Christmas! Xo, Karen
This two got me in tears! When I started following Jesus and became a believer, my heart changed. That help me so much being an employee in retail. I have found that most people who come in angry is struggling with something. It has taught me to be kind, even through the most difficult times.
I am so happy to know that Danica has a relationship with Jesus! Merry Christmas ladies!
I love these two ladies they're amazing love to watch them Act in movies and now that they're both Christians that makes it even a bonus for me
I cried when Danica told us she knows Jesus!!! As a kid I would to pray for my favorite TV actors to know Jesus if they didn’t already. Candace and her brother were also on my list. Praise God!
So good to hear how your journey has started. Danica just did a video for my wife and I on our 15th anniversary. She is one of my wife’s’ favourite actresses. He is the Way, the Truth and the Life.
Love it!!! So happy to hear Danica’s testimony. You definitely are light Candace!!
Love you both and am so happy to hear about Danica accepting Jesus and that makes her my Sister in Christ. Keep on witnessing to your co-stars.

Agree! ❤❤❤
I remember the first Christmas after I'd become a Christian. I already knew the lyrics of all the Christmas carols - many of them to the 2nd and 3rd verses - and had sung them for years. But I heard and understood them for the very first time that Christmas. The songs had such life in them! What a rich experience that was!
Oh wow! Hearing Danica's testimony and how excited she is about her walk with Jesus was so inspiring! It brought joyful tears to my eyes. God promises to draw close to us as we draw close to Him. God bless you all 🙏
🌹 love this conversation, beautiful testimony! Stay strong in your faith, God bless you both 🌹❤️
I am so happy I was praying for her. She is one of my favorite actors. I also praying for you too Canbce. Stay from Satan hates you because you are changing the world your in, and the world your in everyone watches. Praying for you.
You two ladies are absolutely beautiful both inside and out. You, in my opinion, are two of the best role models for young ladies today!
Danica is another one of my favorite actresses. I’m sooo glad to hear she is saved and to hear her excitement about Jesus and His love. That blesses my heart. What a great episode. ❤❤
Reading Luke 2 on Christmas is a great idea. Danica is on fire 🔥 I enjoyed ur friend chemistry
2 of the loveliest ladies a true reflection of grace, goodness and kindness something sadly this generation is missing out. You ladies are AMAZING God Bless you both!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Happy for your journey Danica to get to know Him day by day..He will surprise you in ways you have not thought possible. I will pray for your family that they too will come to grow and love Him. ❤️ your sister in Christ
Fabulous podcast!!! Love you both.
Candace you are a bright light in this world may God bless and guide you always.
What a breath of fresh air to see two famous gals make Jesus famous! Love what you are doing ❤❤❤
So happy I found your videos you are so special thank you for sharing your life with the believers in Christ lots of love from Arkansas ❤
I absolutely loved this 😍! I watched both of you grow up on your shows and I was a fan of both so it was great seeing your interaction together 👍 That's awesome that you helped Danica come to know the Lord 🙏! Everyone needs a believing friend that can help them take those first steps 👏 I had one when I was about 28 & I'll forever be grateful to her for bringing me to church 😊
YAY..! I had been praying for Danica to know Jesus ..! Oh Wow ..! That's so beautiful to see her Love Jesus.!!!!! .. She used to do videos on. Positive thoughts and mind and joy etc and I used to think to myself .. she needs to know the the Real Joy of the Lord.!!!
Welcome to the family Danica! This made me tear up with joy… just what I needed to hear this morning 5 days before Christmas. 🤍🙏🏻🎄
I would like to add to Danica's comment about her awakening with Jesus, it's like finding a Gucci bag at Walmart and you want to tell the whole world of your excitement....finding Jesus is AMAZING!! Congratulations Danica 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Loved her in the Wonder Years when I was young, and was so happy to see her successful as an adult in Math, books, and as an actress ... often in the cheesy Christmas movies we love (and dark hair and dark eyes catch my eye faster than others ... BUT!) this makes me like her even more. And this is a very brave thing for her to come out publicly with in these times. Not just a smart pretty face on TV, but a real human being with depth. Lotta respect.
Jesus shines through both of you! May God continue to strengthen you as you stand for Him.
I really enjoy your podcast, Candace!
Don't let anyone bring you down, stand steadfast and IMMOVABLE
Danica. You brought me to tears when you shared your love of Jesus! Totally awesome that Candace showed you the way you both are such awesome role models for the young women. There aren’t many people that you can call ladies anymore but the two of you truly are ladies and I applaud you both.
Oh come on Candace! You just keep doing more and more for me to love you more! You are so inspiring! I would love to see Danica for a whole season. Explains more on her faith journey. Or at least another episode.
I grew up with you girls and seeing you two loving God is so amazing!
Christmas Wish: Same as Danica's-Beautiful---Truly what I want and Pray for....that MANY will find what Danica and many of us have found...the Best Gift of All!!!
Love her excitement as a newborn
Love you guys. Especially because we are sisters in the Lord. Praise to our awesome God. I’m so proud of you Candace for being so faithful. God bless both of you always ❤
Candice your such a blessing girl!! Keep doing you!! All the glory & honor to our awesome Savior!! God bless you & your family. Merry Christmas!!! ❤️✝️🙏🏻
Your both so sweet ((((((HUGs)))))) I was tearing up with joy when Danica was shareing her born again experience! Yahwah is good!
How nice to see the 2 of you together! And the kissing scenes!! I have always been curious about those. I like how Danica explained it. It's refreshing to see you both share your faith with others.
Love you praying for you and thank you for standing up for Jesus Christ
I love you girls! Merry Christmas!
My 2 favorite Hallmark movie girls!
Thank yall for sharing Jesus. Love you sisters in Christ
A Christian who has committed their lives and have encountered JESUS often are on Fire for CHRIST AND PEOPLE who are familiar and can recognize JESUS in them you can actually see them SHINE!!!! ITS AMAZING
I dont know if you read the comments Candace but I just LOVED watching this episode! Danica is so full of joy and randiant and so excited and to watch you two together was really special. Thanks for sharing this❤ I love her wish and I say amen to that. Merry Christmas to everyone!
It's so hard. I've been devoted to God my whole life. But every time I hit hectic storms I resent Him for allowing this hurt and pain. I feel so guilty every time my faith withers through hardship. I've been waiting and praying for breakthrough 31years. And to have family that resent you makes everything harder.

@zellafincham4237 there is a lot of pain and hurt. I hope you find someone safe that you can talk with about it. I'm a counselor and went to tons of counseling. There is lots of help out there, but find someone you can feel safe with. I learned a therapy called EMDR and it has helped many ppl. It can help ppl to improve much quicker than talk therapy by itself, so it shortens the amount of time needed for things to get better. Everybody is different and so I tell ppl that results vary, but I see tremendous improvement in many ppl. I had a root canal a few weeks ago and decided to use a little of EMDR to help me un-tense and I got so relaxed that I dozed a little. (THAT is a miracle for me!) I hope you find someone who can help you. Merry Christmas, dear Zella. from Skosh
This is my favourite podcast. ❤
I love this program, thanks Candace.
Love this! Thanks, Candace! Merry Christmas to you! 🎄❤️
Dj and Winnie, brings back memories of my younger years. Keep following the Lord ladies and never do anything God would not approve of.
Candice you and Danica should do a Christmas movie together i am sure it would be #1 in everybody watch list
THIS IS SO AWESOME!!!! answered prayers! Amen! GOD is so cool
Oh my goodness this testimony 😭😭😭 so wonderful!
Candace, you kinda have a big part in my finding Jesus too, thorough The View actually. Thank you so much ,💕
Keep up the good work girls!!! You are an inspiration to many people!!!!
Our kids stop at the nativity scene on the way down the stairs and they sing Happy Birthday to Jesus before coming on down to the tree.
Excellent content.. Keep up the good work.
Sadly GAF is not available in my area Candace! East Coast (RI) needs your help! 😉 Great hearing about the Lord in Danica's life! ❤️ Merry Christmas ladies!
I just love this.. I just now got a link to this. My favorite actresses! so thankful.
What a testimony thanks
That’s so funny. I’m a Christian too, and I always liked you two! 😊
Candace I'm so glad I came across your podcast. You are such an inspiration, role model and just overall such a bright light of joy. Thank you for your kindness and for spreading love and celebrating GOD! 🙏🙌❤❤
So encouraging! I have more questions for Danica: how did your new thrill for Jesus affect your relationships? With your husband? Close ones who know you best? Your friends?
I LOVE both of you girls and you're both sweet and beautiful and love that you share your faith. ❤ both of you are my favorite Christmas movies actors. God bless both of you ❤
DJ Tanner and Winnie Cooper! My favorite as an 80s boy.
This made me so happy!
This just thrills me. 💗
hey girl- Oh this was so good! Loved the interview😀😉 I am so happy that Danica found Jesus. Now I will see her in Heaven one day.
Omg!! I LOVED the Christmas videos!!! So fun! Love you both!
I’m so glad I came across this podcast! I subscribed right away 💕
Merry Christmas and New year's to you hope you have a good weekend ps my son have been a big fan of yours for a long time since watching full house im sorry about bob and other things you have been in tv movies thanks for sharing your video with us
I had to cut out some bills a year ago, and internet/cable was one of the first that I cut, because it’s not a necessity. I SO miss the Christmas movies!!! Love both of you!
I'm so glad this podcast exists. It reminds me of the horrors I escaped once I left the church. The trauma from faux "Christians" who are only performative but not practical is ever lasting.
