Candace Cameron Bure Discusses How Faith Has Transformed Her Marriage Over Nearly 30 Years

Candace Cameron Bure has discovered that faith can serve as a powerful tool for healing even in the most challenging periods of life. The actress is renowned for her role in the iconic series ‘Full House’ and has been married to former NHL player Valeri Bure for almost three decades. In an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital, she revealed the hardships that have tested her relationship and the unwavering hope that has guided them through these difficulties.

Facing Challenges in Marriage

Bure candidly shared the realities of marriage, stating, “We all experience disappointments in life, and those disappointments can manifest in different ways for everyone. It might involve family struggles, the loss of loved ones, or grappling with unfulfilled career aspirations.” Her belief is that God works in the realm of restoration, a theme she embraces wholeheartedly.

Deep Brokenness and Renewal

In her discussion with Fox News, Bure reflected on the valleys of struggles she and Valeri have gone through during their nearly 30 years together. She admitted, “There were moments of profound brokenness that I experienced during our marriage.” This honesty underscores the essence of their journey: endurance and rebuilding.

As the Chief Content Officer of Great American Media, Bure is entering the holiday season with newfound joy thanks to two new Christmas movie ventures, one of which debuts in theaters for the first time, ‘Another Sweet Christmas.’ Though her career flourished, her enduring faith remains a cornerstone of her life, marriage, and creative endeavors.

Introducing ‘Rise and Renew’

Bure recently launched a devotional titled ‘Rise and Renew,’ crafted to help readers reconnect with their spirituality, particularly during tough times marked by fatigue and uncertainty. In her own words, “I created this devotional because I recognize that everyone faces disappointments and heartbreak. This work serves as a reminder that every individual can choose to rise each day and renew their perspective on life, focusing on who God is and how He defines us.”

This project aims to assist readers in overcoming negative thoughts, replacing them with truth drawn from scripture. Ultimately, Bure hopes to guide everyone towards spiritual replenishment, promoting resilience day by day.

A Commitment to Daily Renewal

“Each page of this devotional encourages you to fortify your mind and soul with strength, courage, joy, and love,” Bure shared. This daily encouragement aims to inspire individuals to embrace renewal consistently.

Drawn Together by Faith

Bure first met her husband Valeri in 1994 when her ‘Full House’ co-star Dave Coulier introduced them at a charity event. Their romance blossomed, leading to their engagement in June 1995 and a wedding the following year. Together, they have three children: Natasha, Lev, and Maksim, each a vital part of their family’s narrative.

Creating Family-Oriented Holiday Films

The actress, dubbed the ‘Queen of Christmas,’ is set to light up the big screen with her latest holiday film, ‘Another Sweet Christmas.’ This film marks a continuation of her popular collaborative work with Cameron Mathison, building upon the success of their previous project, ‘Home Sweet Christmas.’

Bure reflects on the significance of these Christmas films, stating, “These movies resonate with many people held dear in their hearts. We aimed to continue a story that our fans cherish by introducing a wedding element, an exciting and memorable twist for audiences.”

Emphasizing Unique Narratives in ‘Timeless Tidings of Joy’

Ahead of her next film’s release, Bure is thrilled to star alongside her daughter in ‘Timeless Tidings of Joy.’ This unique, time-traveling narrative takes viewers back to the 1940s, allowing Bure to interact with her younger grandmother, portrayed by her real-life daughter.

Sharing her excitement for the film, Bure stated, “It’s an extraordinary experience, stepping away from the traditional Christmas romantic comedy. It focuses more on family dynamics and relationships rather than a straightforward love story between a man and a woman. It celebrates the bond between a granddaughter and her grandmother, emphasizing generational family ties.”

A Celebration of Faith and Family

Acting alongside her daughter infuses new emotional depth into the film, blending celebration with poignant themes of familial love and connection across generations. ‘Timeless Tidings of Joy’ is set to stream exclusively on Great American Pure Flix starting on November 13, while ‘Another Sweet Christmas’ premieres in theaters from November 30 to December 2.

Bure remains committed to her faith and the impact it has on her life, especially during this festive season. She continues to inspire fans with her strong message of renewal, healing, and familial love.
