The Candace Cameron Bure Podcast

For Chris + Julie Bennett, they left their home and family in Oklahoma to follow God’s leading to build a life in California. And that transition was immediately met with difficulties – from house contracts falling through to discovering that Julie had stage 3 breast cancer. They quickly learned that home is really about who you do life with. 

Their journey has led them to write their book “Fighting For Family”, because family is for everyone. And family isn’t just those you are related to. It’s the community you choose or find. 

• What does your family look like? 
• Who have you found or chosen to be part of your family? 

Listen in as Candace sits down with Chris + Julie to talk about seasons in life where the family was defined by people (related or not), what walking through hardships in unfamiliar places has taught them, and key tips that can help you overcome family barriers.

Do you believe that God meets you where you’re at? For Julie Chen Moonves, God met her right where she was in 2018 when her career pivoted drastically. Looking back, she can see how God was working in her life in one of the darkest seasons … turning it into something good. Candace sits down with Julie to reflect on her journey to faith + unpack profound moments when the intricacies of her life and career were woven together by God's guiding hand. 

Do you see life’s rejection as a way for God to work it out for your good? Listen in as Candace and Julie talk about moments in their lives + careers where God’s hand was threading together the details – even before having faith in God and realizing it was Him working things out. This uplifting conversation is an invitation to witness the beauty of resetting your faith + transforming the darkest seasons into opportunities for growth and goodness

Listen in as Candace + Julie talk about: 

• Why it’s difficult to rely on God 
• Pivoting from religious activity into a relationship with Jesus 
• Looking back on life + seeing God’s hand at work (even before you have faith)

Mental health is the same as physical health – a bodily experience. That being said, we experience mental illness differently than physical illness because when it comes to our mental health, it challenges our identity. It’s healthy to have emotions and feel them because they’re part of our bodily experience. But how do we respond to them? How do we navigate them? How do we care for our minds well? 

Today, Candace is joined by Dr. Anita Phillips to talk about mental health, and while this is a topic that many are afraid to talk about … it is a needed + valuable conversation.  

Did you know that mental health and faith go hand in hand? Jesus has expressed his emotions in many ways throughout His life on earth. He never avoided them and never repented of them. Why? Listen in as Dr. Anita breaks it all down and clears the table on everything we think (and culture tells us) about mental health. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace + Dr. Anita discuss: 

Why are people afraid to talk about mental health

The best place to start when seeking professional help for mental health 

The mental health crisis among teenagers, especially teenage girls 

Moments Jesus expressed his emotions (and when he needed a mental break)

We are wrapping up season 4 with one final conversation between Candace + Bianca – and it’s all about why our decisions matter, how trials, tribulations, and trauma are *sometimes* gifts, and whether or not there is a time we should (or need to) quit. 

Have you ever been in a season where you know without a doubt that you need to quit? Need to walk away? Need to let go? Those moments will come. While the encouragement this season has been to keep going, not give up, and grow your grit … there are times when we need to be wise and walk away. 

But how do you navigate that? Bianca breaks down questions you should ask yourself BEFORE you quit, and the value of inviting wise counsel into your final decision. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Bianca discuss: 

• Challenges in their lives that they now consider a gift looking back 
• What James 1 teaches us about “getting over what we are under”
• Whether there are times we should quit

Do you recognize the voice and the presence of Jesus in your life? Do you connect with Him in the mundane moments of your day? 

Candace is joined by Aarti Sequiera in today’s conversation to talk about her journey from being born in India, raised in Dubai, and moving to the USA. But more so, she shares her beautiful testimony of coming into a relationship with Jesus. 

“You can tell someone’s faith by what they ate.” At least in India + Dubai! Being raised around different religions, Aarti’s faith has evolved over the years – she once viewed God as a statue on the wall and a far-off father figure. Now, she understands and walks in a loving, grace-filled relationship with Him. 

Aarti is a former journalist turned movie co-producer (alongside George Clooney … what?!), and is now the author of 2 incredible cookbooks. Her story is powerful! And her hope is to encourage you to embrace your testimony – no matter how small it may seem to you, it is significant.

Before your time on earth comes to an end, where is one place you want to go? 

We all have places we want to visit and see. But have you thought about your legacy? Because the truth is, we will leave a legacy, and it’s up to us what impact it has on those around us. 

Legacy is typically equated with wealth – but it is SO much more than that. It is about what we are giving to the next generation. Your legacy will impact those you know and those you don't. 

In light of the topic this season (Grit Don’t Quit), we want to encourage you with this: you are too young to quit and too old to give up. It’s all worth it. 

What is the legacy you want to leave?  

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Bianca discuss: 

• Why legacy is so much more than wealth 
• What we can learn from Paul’s legacy 
• How legacy is linked to mentorship

SURPRISE! We have a bonus episode with Season 3’s co-host, Katy Nichole? It is all about her upcoming single, “One Of The Found.” 

We all want to feel seen and be known by God, right? We desire to find hope, be loved, and be one of the found. Katy wrote this song to those who may not know Jesus, or know they are seen and loved by Him.

Life happens – it’s a roller coaster, and you will get to a point where you are tired and don’t want to keep fighting. Whether it is because of a painful situation, a season of waiting, or when the going gets really tough. That is when the “big D’s" of life can set in – Depression. Despair. Disillusionment. Disappointment. What do we do when that happens? 

Seek purpose from your pain. As we look at the life of Paul, we see a story in Acts that shows us how to live within our pain. God has promises for our life, but when they don’t look the way we thought they would, how will we respond? Do we focus on the why or fix our eyes on the Who? 

Faith is proven IN the fire. If you are walking through the fire right now, be encouraged. The dawn is coming. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Bianca discuss: 

• Being ok with sitting in the tension of feeling pain 
• Focusing on the who, not the why during hard seasons 
• How hard seasons will prove our faith in God

Who is your hero? When you look at them do you feel like you cannot measure up? It’s not bad to have heroes you look up to! But when it comes to comparing yourself to them, are you careful? Comparison will rob you of your joy in life and will leave you wanting more. 

The comparison trap is a real place. But you don’t have to live there. You CAN get out of it – through learning to trust God with your life, celebrating your life AND the lives of others, and believing that there is a enough for everyone. 

Are you ready to leave the comparison trap behind? Let’s dive in together!

How do you practice growing? You go through hard stuff. When the going gets tough and you feel like giving up, use it as an opportunity to grow your grit.

Sometimes communication doesn’t always click. Have you ever had a moment where what you are saying and how you are being understood just doesn’t go the right way? 

We’ve all been there - communication is a practice we continue to get better at day by day. 

The same goes for communicating with God. It is something we grow in every time we talk to Him AND when we listen as for His voice. How do you hear from God? How He speaks to you may not be the same as how He speaks to someone else. 

There are 4 ways that God communicates with us. Listen in as Bianca and Candace break down the strengths, weaknesses, and Biblical examples for each one. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Bianca discuss: 

• Different styles of communication and how knowing them will help you better communicate with those around you 
• 4 ways we may understand God’s voice individually – what they are as well as what the strengths and weaknesses for each way are 
• Specific people in the Bible who are examples of how God speaks 
• What A.C.T.S stands for + how it can support your prayer life

Do you see falling as failing? It’s ok. We all have seen it that way at some point as we ride the roller coaster of the highs and lows in life. But what if falling wasn’t failing? What if falling led to getting back up and winning? 

We live in a culture that wants to cancel people for their failures. And while no one wants to walk through trauma, trial, and tribulation when we fall, we must get back up and finish the course God has set before us. Remove the excuse to quit and keep running! 

Winning is getting back up and finishing the course God has set out for you. Are you ready to conquer failure and win? Let’s do this, together.  

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Bianca discuss: 

What it means to thrive in life, not just survive 

How running a physical race correlates to running the race of life 

People in their lives that embody resilience 

The importance of placing people around you that will champion you through your failures

Guess what?! Season 4 is *almost* HERE! And we are excited to share this season’s theme and co-host with you.

Drum roll … this season Candace is sitting down with Bianca Juarez Olthoff (cue the virtual dance party). If you don’t know Bianca, buckle up because she is a lot of fun and has a lot of wisdom to share. Bianca is President of In The Name Of Love Ministry, host of the We're Going There Podcast, and author of Playing With Fire and How To Have Your Life Not Suck.

All season long, Candace and Bianca will journey through conversations about times in life when the going gets tough. Simply put, this season will focus on giving ourselves the ability to push forward and not give up or run away when it gets hard. Because your pain has a purpose, and you will stand again to testify that God is good.

Next Tuesday, September 19 we’ll kick off this season and we can’t wait for you to listen in!

There is no better way to wrap up Season 3 (which is all about music and its impact) than to talk about Christmas music! Did you expect anything else from Candace? 

Listen in as Katy talks about writing her Christmas song, “Oh What A King.” It is from the perspective of Mary and the way she adores, worships, and honors Jesus. Have you ever read Mary’s song in the Bible? It is beautiful!

Is your quiet time with God in the morning, at night, or some other time in your day? Whenever you spend time with Him, the point is to connect. Are you turning to Jesus? He is available to you throughout your day, whenever you need Him or want to spend time with Him. 

That’s the meaning of the final song on Katy’s Album, “Turn To Jesus.” And it was placed last on the album to serve as a reminder that no matter what your day looks like or where you find yourself, you can always turn to Jesus. Tune in as Candace asks Katy all about this song, as they begin to wrap up their conversations around her album. 

Also, listen to the second half of the episode as Candace and Katy answer a listener question about encouraging your children to engage in church community.

“Take it to the cross.” You may have heard the phrase before, but struggle to understand what it really means. What does it mean to take it to the cross? To surrender to God and give Him the burdens of your life?

Listen in as Candace and Katy Nichole talk about surrender on this episode; what does it really look like? In what ways are they surrendering to God in this season? How do you fully trust God with your life and release your own control? 

Wherever you find yourself on the roller coaster of life, surrender to God is foundational. He can be trusted, can carry your burdens, and will walk with you on the journey. Do you trust Him? 

Katy Nichole’s song “Take It To The Cross” is an anthem of surrender. Head to Candace.com to listen to it on their Summer Playlist. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Katy discuss: 

• Ways they practically lay their burdens at the cross  
• Surrender + how important it is in our relationship with God as we trust Him with our life
• What Katy has had to surrender in this season of her life + the difference that has made for her

Life is a roller coaster, and when you are facing the drop, it can feel like you are holding on for dear life. But keep holding on, don’t let go. The drop is going to pass, your worst is eventually going to be behind you. The season you are in is temporary but the God you serve and believe in is constant and eternal. Do you recognize Him in those seasons? What are you holding onto? 

Katy Nichole bravely shares the story behind her song, “Hold On,” which comes from a dark season in her life where she did not want to continue on the roller coaster. But God intervened and reminded her that He is not done yet. 

We hope this conversation serves as a reminder that God has a purpose for YOUR life, He is not done with you yet, either. 

If you are struggling with self-harm or suicidal thoughts, please call 811 – the national mental health help phone number.

Have you ever been in a season where all you could utter was, “I need you God. Please, help me”? As you cry out to the Lord, you may find yourself wondering if He cares to hear the cry of your heart or the complaint on her mind. But He does. He always wants to hear from us. Even if it is just saying “please,” He draws near. 

Katy Nichole discusses her song, “Please” which is a personal and vulnerable cry of her heart. It is a plea to God during hard moments. And we hope it gives you words to say if you feel like you don’t know what to say to God, but you just need Him to be with you and help you. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Katy discuss: 

• Being in moments where all you can say is “Lord, I need you” 
• The difference between sitting in your cries and releasing them to God, and how one of them can lead toward sinful behavior 
• Living in a digital world and where they hope to see the world in 10 years

“It’s only by the grace of God.” Have you said that phrase, or something like it, before? It’s a common statement and one that might hold a different meaning for each person. 

But at the end of it all, it is because of His grace we are on this earth. In this episode, Katy Nichole talks about writing “By The Grace of God” and how that journey led her to find healing from her past. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Katy discuss: 

• Who in their family lineage shaped who they are today 
• Coming from a history of believers OR non-believers – you can break generational habits and carry the legacy of your family well 
• Facing the consequences of your actions while still standing because of God’s grace

What is your testimony? Everyone has one. We all have a story to tell that points toward the goodness of God. No story is too small or too big for God to use as living proof of who He is. And while it can be scary to share your story, He will give you the courage to share it. Will you share it? 

Tune in as Candace asks Katy Nichole about her song, “Living Proof” and the journey to writing this through the lens of her testimony. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Katy discuss: 

• How sharing your story will show others God’s goodness 
• Moments in their life that are living proof of who God is  
• The importance of YOUR story; no matter how big or small it may feel

What are you thankful for today? It can be the breath in your lungs, the people around you, or an amazing opportunity standing in front of you. Whatever it is, there is always something you can be grateful for.  

Today’s conversation is about one of Candace’s favorite songs on Katy Nichole’s album – “Jesus, Thank You.” It is an anthem of gratefulness to Jesus. If there are two things that can shift your mindset, it is gratitude and worship; and this song encompasses both of those things.  

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Katy discuss: 

• The things they are grateful for in this season 
• How worship and gratitude can shift your mindset and the atmosphere around you
• The fear of failure – Would you rather fail or wonder what would have happened if you tried?

You know those gatherings where things get a little tense because two people in the group have different opinions on something? Maybe you have been on one of the sides, and were in the tension too. Divisive moments like those can lead to broken relationships. But how do we respond? 

We forgive. Human nature is flawed, so we are all going to hurt one another at some point. Is it better to forgive or live with unforgiveness? Carrying the characteristics of God - love, grace, mercy, and forgiveness - flows into our relationships with others. 

Katy Nichole wrote “Things I Wish I Would Have Said” as an anthem that points us toward forgiveness. Knowing we are forgiven, we can forgive others. 

“When you have the opportunity to say I love you, I miss you, I need you … say those things! Don’t miss the opportunity to say them.” Tune in to hear more! 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Katy discuss: 

• How divisive moments can lead to broken relationships 
• The importance of bringing the characteristics of God into every day relationships
• Not living with regret and trusting God’s plan will unfold anyway 
• Scripture that points toward forgiveness

Think back on a time in your life when you knew God’s presence was there. Maybe you didn’t realize it at the time, but now you can see His presence in that moment of your life.

Do you see Him in your story? Do you see Him using you in your story? 

God is always present, even when we cannot see Him or feel Him. 

Katy Nichole shares about the journey to writing “God Is In This Story.”  

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Katy discuss: 

• Not just knowing, but recognizing God’s presence in our life 
• Moments Candace has seen God’s presence and protection in her life 
• How God will use your story to connect with others

Life can be hard. And when it is, can you still praise God through it?

Think about a time when you have gone through something painful - whether it was physical  or emotional.

Maybe you are walking through difficulty right now. During those seasons, you may feel either connected or disconnected from God. Believing He can perform miracles and redeem situations, but feeling anger and bitterness toward Him for the pain you are experiencing. 

But as you walk through those seasons, hold onto hope. If Jesus has changed your life before, you can remain confident that He will be with you and can bring new life again. 

For Katy Nichole, she leaned into her faith when she faced back surgery (twice!). As she walked through that experience, she came out stronger - both physically and spiritually. Today, things may not be the same as they were, but she remains full of hope knowing that God did not fail her and that she is not forgotten by Him. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Katy discuss: 

• The pivotal moment in Katy’s life that inspired “Jesus Changed My Life” 
• Feeling connected AND disconnected from God in difficult seasons of life 
• When miracles happen but things change, it doesn’t take away from the miracle or the fact that God did not fail you or forget you (even if it feels that way)

Music is powerful. It impacts our lives in many ways, and often speaks right to our souls. 

When we sing, it can lift us out of our worries, thoughts, and circumstances. And it reminds our hearts we aren’t alone. That is why Candace invited Katy Nichole on the show for this season – to share stories behind the songs from her debut album, “Jesus Changed My Life.”

In this first conversation of the season, you will hear Katy share what led her to write her chart-topping single, “In Jesus Name” which has become an anthem of prayer in the homes of millions around the world.

You will hear Katy sing this song live at the end of the show - she brought her ukulele along!

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Katy discuss:

• How Katy went from studying in the medical field to pursuing music full time
• Laying your dreams at the feet of Jesus and what He can do with them when you trust Him and His timing 
• Writing “In Jesus Name” over the course of several years, and how the lyrics came from her prayer journal

Guess what?! Season 3 is *almost* HERE! 

This season Candace will talk about the Stories Behind The Songs with her season co-host, Katy Nichole. 

Katy joins Candace to share what inspired each song on her debut album, “Jesus Changed My Life.” This album came from a dark season that she overcame, and she hopes the words in these songs inspire others when they walk through hard seasons. Because God is with you in this moment, and in every future moment of your life. 

One of the biggest reasons Candace invited Katy onto the show for this season is because she LOVES music. Not only does it speak to her throughout the roller coaster rides of life, but it also gives her peace, comfort, and joy. Does music do that for you too? 

We hope this season inspires you in your faith journey and in life. Mark your calendars for Tuesday June 20th for the release of Season 3, Episode 1!

We are wrapping up season 2 (already!) and this conversation is the perfect way to end our conversation on Finding Purpose. 

When you start dating someone, or are thinking about getting married, it’s pretty common to make sure the people closest to you (especially family) give input on whether your partner is a good fit or not.  Different cultures have different ways of giving “permission” before two families get connected.

But when it comes to stepping into your purpose, do you need “permission”? 

Do you need to wait for things to look good? 

For you to feel ready? 

Or for your next right step to match what other people approve of?

Jesus went before us and occupied different spaces, which gives us permission to do the same. He is our ultimate permission-giver. We are firmly secure in Christ, and no one’s approval or rejection, no uncomfortable or risky space – nothing can take away that security we have in Him. 

Listen in as Heather kicks off this episode with a rapid fire Q+A with Candace, and ask yourself  - would you rather reveal your Netflix watch list or your Music playlists?!

Thank you Heather for being part of this season, and offering a wealth of wisdom and encouragement each week! 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss: 

• Needing (or waiting for) permission to take a step into a new space or a next step in life  
• How God gives us permission to step into our purpose, even if it doesn’t look perfect or we feel ready 
• Spaces Jesus had to occupy so that we could have permission to occupy our own spaces

Have you ever found yourself in a season that felt like living in a prison? Maybe you actually have spent time in a prison or in jail.

We’ve all walked through spaces and seasons that feel really difficult. Maybe you are in one right now. Don’t give up. There is grace for what you are walking through right this second. 

A lot of times we are walking through hard places and blame God for the circumstances, but He is the one who is with us through them and He heals us in them. No matter where we go or what we face, His presence is with us and we are completely surrounded by Him. 

Think about the story of Paul in the Bible, when he was in prison. The walls begin to shake around him, crashing down to create a way for him to escape. But his first response wasn’t to run from the prison. He chose to stay and wait for God to release him – and when God did, He released Paul in peace. When spaces feel like prisons, do we want to try to escape or wait until God releases us in peace? 

If you are walking through a hard place, God’s presence and His peace are with you. And if you have made it through a valley, use your story to encourage others on the journey. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss: 

• Spaces that feel like prisons and how our attitude can impact embracing those places 
• The difference between worrying and bitterness
• Hard places in their lives where they’ve had to walk through it with God and allow Him to heal them through it 
• Feeling God’s presence and finding His peace in the valley

Have you heard about George, the thriving fiddle leaf fig Candace has? 

Over the years, she has tended to it, nourished it, and cared for it. And just like she has taken care of her fiddle leaf fig, we attend to our space and assignments. 

There are things that can distract us or sabotage our space. Like foxes that steal from gardens and impact future fruitfulness, there are things that get in our way and impact our future ability to grow. 

What are situations or issues that distract you within your space? 

Is there something that feels like it could totally sabotage your assignments? 

It might be easy to think of external issues, but often we get in our own way. 

The good news is that there is a river of love and unlimited resources of all we need – it comes from God. And when you are in the river, your cup always overflows. Cultivate what matters in life, nourish your assignments, tend to your spaces, and watch them flourish and grow. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss: 

• What tending your space means and how you can tend to it well 
• Things that can sabotage or distract our own assignments and space (and sometimes, it can be our own selves) 
• Ways they structure their life to combat things that try to distract and sabotage them
• How cultivating your relationship with God and others will support you as you tend your space

When it comes to owning our space, sometimes we may find ourselves shrinking back. Maybe it’s because we fear failing and being hurt, we lack bravery, or are too comfortable. 

On the other end of the spectrum, sometimes we can swell within our space. We find ourselves stepping over the lines of our space and into the sphere of someone else’s. 

Think about it this way: you show up to a theater to watch a play. The seats are assigned and you sit in the wrong seat. Not only are you taking up someone else’s space, but you are missing out on your own. Sound familiar? 

Knowing who you are, who you are not, where you start, and where you end is incredibly powerful when it comes to discovering (and living out) your God-given purpose. 

Let us encourage you: You don’t need to be the one that fills all the spaces. You just need to fill your own space, with the gifts, talents and experiences you have. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss: 

• Taking up space that belongs to someone else; what that means and why it is important that we should be aware of it 
• Knowing who you are, who you are not, where you start and where you end (self-differentiating, which can be really hard to do!) 
• What the hula-hoop space is and how understanding your circle, and the circle of others, will you own your space well 
• How shrinking back relates to growth and stretching

Have you ever watched a video of a child getting a cochlear implant and hearing for the first time? Typically the parent’s first words to their child are about their identity. They tell them their name and how loved they are. God wants us to turn on our listening hearts so He can tell us the same things. He wants to tell us our identity and our worth, and wants to offer direction to our lives. But we must have a God-listening heart to truly hear what He is saying. 

How do you determine what is a good idea and what is God’s idea? It is a question we’ve all asked and wrestled with, especially when navigating our purpose in life. This is where discernment comes in. And not the kind of discernment you may be used to hearing about. A discernment to know where God is leading you starts with a heart to hear and listen to His voice. 

And as you develop your God-listening heart, you will be able to discern what your responsibility is (and is not) in the world. He will guide and lead you to discover your purpose. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss: 

• Understanding discernment from the perspective of wisdom 
• How important it is to sit and listen to God when you pray (it’s not just about talking to God) 
• Journal prompts you can use to begin sitting with and listening to God’s voice as you pray 
• Discerning what is our responsibility and what is not our responsibility

In the last four episodes, Heather + Candace broke down the Boundary Lines of Time, Place, Wiring, and Experience. They all fit together and help you navigate decisions, give direction to your purpose, and clarity to your assignments in life. In today’s conversation Heather + Candace are going to help you make sense of using those Boundary Lines to Draw Up Your Space.  

“Where God has you is where Jesus is.” We gather at church but when we leave, we go into the world in different places and spaces that help define our purpose. We are made to bring Jesus to the natural places we go throughout our lives. If you were only in a space where you felt 100% safe and constantly comfortable, you could be missing out on God using you to reach the world in the ways He calls us to. Don’t miss out on the space He puts you in. Draw your space and discover your purpose through the Boundary Lines of Time, Place, Wiring and Experience. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss: 

• Moments they have seen the 4 Boundary Lines clarify their purpose 
• Ways you can bring an awareness of Jesus into your everyday life as you draw up your space 
• A current decision Candace is navigating; Heather guides her through the Boundary Lines to help bring clarity and direction to the decision

Do your experiences in life provide clarity as you discover your purpose? YES! Absolutely. 

Experiences shape your life + character.

As you walk through different experiences, not only does your purpose become more clear, but your ability to sit with others during their life journey expands. You can hold hope for others when they feel hopeless and encourage them to the other side of that difficulty. 

What about hard circumstances? How do they impact your purpose? Sometimes it feels easier to hold onto past situations that were difficult to go through, and are difficult to heal from. But by doing that, ultimately you hold yourself back from all God has for you, and the purpose He has for your life. You can allow your circumstances to shape you, in a positive or negative way. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss: 

• Moments in life they can look back on and see how God used their experiences for a greater purpose 
• Being able to sit with others in hard seasons because of going through difficult seasons 
• How experiences help you hold hope for someone else walking through life
• The importance of moving forward from your past situations, and not allowing them to hold you back from your future

"I want to be like _____ . I wish I had _____ like _____.” Have you ever made statements like those? It is easy to desire to be like someone else or want a quality someone else might have that you do not, but living like someone else is not living out YOUR purpose. Your wiring is unique and God made you with that wiring for a greater reason. 

When it comes to discovering your purpose, looking at your gifts and talents, strengths and weaknesses is the best place to start. Putting your energy into how you are wired will lead you towards discovering your identity and embracing your purpose. 

If you don’t use your wiring to fuel your purpose, you are only half-living. And using your gifts will encourage others to discover theirs, and live their life on purpose and with a purpose. So … be you, and live your life through your unique wiring! 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss: 

• Strengths + weaknesses; why they matter to how you are wired 
• How discovering your gifts and talents will help you discover your purpose 
• Being mislabeled and how that can sometimes be labeled a “problem” but is how you are wired 
• Feeling like you are sitting on the bench in life, and not part of the game but how cheering others on (or sitting on the bench) serves great purpose

Did you know that Candace once moved 18 times in 12 years? It can be challenging to establish new roots, build community, and find purpose when you are constantly moving. But one thing we can ALL do wherever we find ourselves is this: find purpose in it. 
Embrace the places in front of you; the ones you physically find yourself standing in every day. Whether that is inviting people into your home, helping your neighbors, talking to the mom pushing her stroller, or living life with others. When you show up to those places, you will discover your purpose. Because God wants to use YOUR places for His purpose. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss: 

• Where they grew up and how that shaped who they are. 
• Embracing places right in front of you and seeing them as valuable 
• How inviting people into your home and living your life in front of others is the best witness you can be

Picture this: you sit down with your spouse or family after a long day.. They’re all talking about their day, but you don’t hear a word. You are glazed over and your mind is elsewhere. Sound familiar? 

Being present isn’t always easy. But it is valuable. If we can become more aware of being present, then we give room for God to use us to occupy the spaces and places we are in. 

Time is a complex concept to understand and grasp but there is SUCH significance to this moment, right now, where you find yourself in life. There is a great purpose in the season you find yourself in. 

We see our life in little chunks of time. God sees the full picture; our full timeline. Do we trust Him with that timeline? God will use the spaces you occupy to build your character and expand your perspective. 

You may have heard this famous quote before: How you spend your minutes is how you spend your life. Our challenge in this episode is this: are you stewarding your time well? 

Let’s dive in. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss: 

• The complexity of time and the how we see time versus how God sees time 
• What time has to do with occupying your God-given space and finding purpose 
• Moments in their life that carry significant meaning in the overall timeline of their lives 
• The value of being present to where you are in your everyday life

Have you ever been in a season where you feel stuck? You look around and don’t see success or purpose with where your feet are planted. You don’t feel qualified (or sometimes comfortable) doing what God has called you to do in that season. 

Success. It is a word that carries individual meaning and can change from season to season of life. But at the end of it all, success comes from a humble place of fully occupying your God-given space.  Because it’s not about us, it’s about Him and His purpose. It’s not about us feeling qualified, it’s about who He is and how He works through us to fill the gaps. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss: 

• Moments in their life where the “definition of success” changed and how others around them responded to those changes
• Good advice, bad advice, right advice, and how we ultimately need to listen to God’s direction and wisdom 
• The difference (literally and biblically) between humble and humility 
• Trusting that God is doing something bigger in the assignments He gives you, that are not easy or comfortable

We have all struggled at some point to understand God’s will and purpose for our lives. And in different seasons, we may also feel like we are missing out, forgotten or doing less important work than what He has for us. That simply isn’t true! 

God’s will is at work all the time and He invites us to join Him. We miss out on His will when we don’t accept those invitations. He gives us assignments in life that fulfill His will in our life and in our world. 

God is inviting you to fulfill His purpose for your life in the assignments He is placing around you. You are not too young, too old, too late, and you don’t need to do it perfectly. You are right where you are supposed to be. 

If you are in the middle of God’s will, you are never missing out, forgotten, or doing work that is less than. Be faithful with the assignments He gives you because you never know where they will lead you. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Heather discuss: 

• Discovering they were in a magazine together in 1992 and how being faithful to writing brought Heather to where she is today 
• Moments they felt like they missed out on opportunities as they shifted focus from raising careers to raising their children
• The fear of missing out, feeling forgotten and less important 
• Understanding and finding God’s purpose in the various assignments He calls you to throughout your life 
• What motherhood taught Candace about God’s will and purpose for her life

Do you ever feel like you are trying to figure everything out and don’t even know where to start? We have something special just for you this season.

Candace Interviews Heather, and Heather Interviews Candace - listen to different interviews on both podcasts.

Season 2 of The Candace Cameron Bure Podcast is coming March 28!

Picture this: you are at a symphony and the musicians begin playing. But something sounds off, and you quickly realize that everyone is playing the same instrument and following the same note pattern. That wouldn’t be the most beautiful piece of music you listen to, right? Because what makes a symphony so beautiful is all the different instruments playing together using different melodies, harmonies, and notes that create a song.  

The same can be said about the body of Christ. We are all part of the body of Christ; but if we all had the same gifts, talents, and skills we would be a robot instead of a body. Within the body of Christ we are all called to one mission: be like Jesus. 

What does it mean to “be like Jesus?” Jesus said that we demonstrate Him to the world by loving people like He loves people. And the way He loved people was scandalous. It was counter cultural. He loved everyone as they were; including the people who were different from Him, enemies to the land He walked, and even the outcasts.

He calls us to be a bridge builder to everyone; including those who are different from us. The best part is that there is always something we can learn from someone who doesn’t see the same way we do. It shouldn’t stop us from loving them well. 

This conversation wraps up Season 1 with Candace and Tara-Leigh Cobble, but there is a BONUS episode available for those who purchase a ticket to the live event on February 16 (whether in person or via livestream). You can still grab a ticket and get the bonus episode! 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Tara-Leigh discuss: 

• Tara-Leigh’s favorite site in Israel (it’s not what you would expect!). 
• What it means to be like Jesus and how we can be more like Him by loving others well. 
• Moments in scripture where Jesus loved others in ways that were counter cultural. 
• Being a Christian and what keeps them coming back, despite experiencing wounds from others. 
  

Scripture Memory of the Season: 

1 John 5:1-6 (CSB) Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father also loves the one born of him. This is how we know that we love God’s children; when we love God and obey His commands. For this is what love for God is: to keep His commands. And His commands are not a burden, because everyone who has been born of God conquers the world. This is the victory that has conquered the world: our faith. Who is the one who conquers the world, but the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? Jesus Christ--he is the one who came by water and blood, not by water only, but by water and by blood. And the Spirit is the one who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.

We are created in the image of God. We are recreated through the Holy Spirit at work within us to become more like Jesus. Simply put, we are born again; we are transformed. Our desire to be more like Jesus can only come from God because we cannot change our heart, only He can. 

God uses His Word, the Spirit, and those around us to reveal more of who He is to us, so that we can become more like Jesus. Are there people in your life God uses to show you who He is? Maybe it’s a friend who, while walking through a really hard season, exudes unexplainable joy. Or maybe it’s through a conversation with someone at the grocery, who displays kindness toward you. 

Tara-Leigh and Candace hope that through this episode you continue to hunger after a relationship with God AND that He drops people in your life that reveal more of who He is to you. May He bring Debbie’s into your garage door to bring your cookies (you have to listen to understand!). 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Tara-Leigh discuss: 

• Being born again is not a weird thing, it is a spiritual transformation that God does within us so we can be more like Jesus. 
• How the Word, the Spirit, and people in our life work to show us more of who God is. 
• People in their lives who showed them more of who God is, and how it has shaped their faith.

Have you prayed for something and God said no? We all have (if we are honest). We have all prayed for something or someone, and the outcome is not what we wanted or expected. The truth is, if when we come to God with our prayers and expect Him to work the outcome in the way we want, we treat God like He is a vending machine. Prayer isn’t transactional, it is relational. It isn’t about getting what we want, it’s about getting God. 

Sometimes we get a no, that is true. But that does not mean that God is displeased with you. His no is often the kindest possible answer He can give to you. Throughout the Bible, we see God say no to heroes of the faith; David, Paul, and even Jesus. But look at how God not only blessed them, but used them. So if you get a no from God, you are in good company. 

Join Candace and Tara-Leigh as they share vulnerable moments about their life through this conversation around prayer and hearing no from God. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Tara-Leigh discuss: 

• The difference between a transactional prayer and a relational prayer. 
• When Jesus got a no from the Father and how important that moment is to understand when it comes to your prayer life and relationship with Him. 
• How no is often God’s kindest possible answer, and often the answer we are grateful for in hindsight. 
• What the landscape of Candace’s prayers look like. 
• The moment that Candace recognized divorce was a no from God (through an honest conversation with her kids).

Prayer is a conversation with God that He desires to have with us. He is never too busy for us, never bothered by our requests or prayers, and certainly is not bored when we talk to Him. When we pray, God is always there, always listening, and always receiving. 

Prayer is a place where all 3 persons of The Trinity are at work. When we pray, we are talking to the Father, through Jesus (because of the connection He made possible for us), and the Holy Spirit is empowering us in and through prayer. 

Two common questions people ask when it comes to prayer are: 

1. How do I pray? 
2. Why do I need to pray to God when He knows everything? 
   

In today’s episode, Candace and Tara-Leigh dig into those two questions, and more. If you don’t know how to pray or feel like you aren’t good at praying, or you feel like you don’t understand why prayer matters – take a breath and rest easy. Let’s go on this journey together! 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Tara-Leigh discuss: 

• Prayer as a conversation with the Trinity and how that perspective of prayer will challenge the way we pray. 
• How prayer can be taught or developed; it is a skill Jesus taught His disciples and can teach us too. 
• What “in Jesus name, Amen” actually means and the power it carries when we pray. 
• Moments in their lives where they have seen their prayers answered (in ways they desired and in ways they did not expect). 
• Tips for listening and meditating in silence with God; it may be difficult but it is  powerful.

God’s never going to give you more than you can handle” – it is really easy to look at punchy one-liners like this one on social media and take them as the whole truth. But do you measure them against God’s word before you take them as the whole truth? The Spirit calls us to use The Word as a measuring stick for truth. He is our guide and gives us wisdom as we walk through life. 

The Spirit is meant to bring clarity to us and teach us. All throughout scripture, the Spirit clarifies who Jesus is and points back to the truth (the Son and the Father) teaching us how to be more like Him. 

Colossians 3 says to put on attributes like kindness, compassion, patience, gentleness, and more). It is not easy to do everyday, but it is a choice we make everyday day. And if we practice it enough it becomes a habit. By surrendering to the Spirit’s work in us, He will enable us to walk in those attributes, lean into His wisdom, and walk in His Spirit. 

The Spirit produces the fruit in us but that takes time. The more time you spend with the Spirit, the more you are nourished and grow. When we get frustrated that we don’t feel we are growing it is easy to be discouraged and bow out. But God is still at work within you. Don’t lose hope. He is developing the fruit in you. Be patient with yourself; He is patient with you. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Tara-Leigh discuss: 

• The importance of measuring everything against the Word of God. 
• How we are unified as the body of Christ because of The Spirit. 
• Learning from others with different opinions is healthy for you and your faith. 
• Why kindness is so important to Candace and the story behind her book “Kind Is The New Classy” 
• The Fruit of the Spirit – and how it is ONE fruit with 9 attributes, not 9 different fruits. 
• The difference between a transactional and relational partnership with the Spirit.

Who is the Holy Spirit? This is such a common question that is asked when it comes to fully understanding The Trinity. The Holy Spirit is the most mysterious (and sometimes confusing) within the triad. Before Jesus went back to Heaven, He said “I am sending the Spirit who is better than me.” Better than Jesus? That doesn’t sound right. But it is. The Holy Spirit is not a force or power used by God. He is a person who has responsibilities and characteristics that help guide us through life. And Jesus knew we needed Him. 

Candace and Tara-Leigh sit down and dive into the mystery of The Holy Spirit in hopes of helping us understand who He is and how He works in us. They also share personal stories from their faith journey; and Candace talks about the time her husband baptized her in the ocean (grab your tissues! It’s a beautiful story). 

As you listen to this conversation, we hope you are inspired to take your relationship with God deeper through The Holy Spirit. Did you know you can read your Bible in ONE year just by reading for 12 minutes a day? That makes studying God’s word more, seem possible. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Tara-Leigh discuss: 

• Building good habits (especially with reading and studying your Bible). 
• The moment Candace began to understand and desire to read the Bible.
• Who The Holy Spirit is and how He fits into The Trinity. 
• Baptism; what it is and why it is important to your walk with Jesus.

Candace is BACK with Tara-Leigh Cobble to continue their conversation on the connection between God and Jesus (pssst … He is still the same person) Think about this: if Jesus were not God, but was just a man, how would that change the way you live? You likely may stop seeing Jesus as Divine and see as a man who was a bit crazy at times; as a man who ran around claiming to be God, the fulfillment of the Old Testament. And you likely would not place as much weight into what He says or how He guides you. 

Candace and Tara-Leigh discuss that the idea that God of the Universe, who created everything, came to us in human form to save us. God desires a relationship with us and he wants us to flourish in life. He sent His son so that we could flourish. Everything that Jesus teaches us is for our joy, our thriving, and our flourishing. And when we live life knowing HIs love for us and how much He cares for us, that will pour out onto those around us. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Tara-Leigh discuss: 

• Why the birth of Jesus is just as important as the death of Jesus 
• The moments in the New Testament where Jesus revealed Himself and moments He did not, and why He chose to withhold who He was to certain groups.
• A moment in Candace’s life where she had to push through her anger and lean into Christ-like humility.
• What Dancing With The Stars taught Candace about how much God picks us up and guides us through hard seasons.

Have you ever read through the Old Testament and thought, “Oh mylanta! I cannot wait for Jesus to show up. These stories are hard to read.” 

What if we told you that Jesus was just as present in those stories as He was in the miracles of the New Testament? Many people (including Christians) believe that Jesus didn’t arrive on the scene until His recorded birth in the gospels. But that simply isn’t true. Jesus has always existed, He wasn’t created by God. He played an integral role in Creation and was present through every moment of history. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Tara-Leigh discuss: 

• Which translations of the Bible are most accurate to the original text. 
• Understanding how Jesus is God which means Jesus always existed and was not created by God. 
• Their bucket list; what they have done and what they still wish to do in life. 
  

Scripture Memory of the Season: 1 John 5:1-3 (CSB) Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father also loves the one born of him. This is how we know that we love God’s children; when we love God and obey His commands. For this is what love for God is: to keep His commands.

God is a GOOD Father who is never disappointed in you *gasp* 

He is grieved by our sins, but never disappointed. Because to be disappointed He has to be let down by an unmet expectation, and He has no expectations of us. When we sin, God does not run from us, He runs to us and dwells with us. The whole point of the Bible is God’s love story to us and His goodness + kindness are reflected all throughout it. And He funnels who He is through The Trinity. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Tara-Leigh discuss: 

• The fear of God and how it consists of delight and awe – it draws us to Him, not from Him. 
• Why it is important to draw closer to God in seasons of trial AND abundance.  
• How God's kindness and attention to detail reflects just how GOOD of a Father He is. 
  

Scripture Memory of the Season: 1 John 5:1-2 (CSB) Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father also loves the one born of him. This is how we know that we love God’s children; when we love God and obey His commands.

God is both Creator and Father – this speaks to how relational He is; we aren’t just His creations. We are His children. He was Father before He was Creator. Do you see Him as your Father? You can know about God the Father intellectually, but struggle to receive it depending on your perspective and experience with earthly fathers. God wants to Father you in the way that you should be (and desire to be) fathered.  

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Tara-Leigh discuss: 

• The distinction between God the Creator and God the Father. 
• God’s “no” to something in your life is actually God’s kindest, most protective answer for your life. 
• How the Trinity carries unified will and character, even in their individual personas.  

Scripture Memory of the Season: 1 John 5:1-2 (CSB) Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father also loves the one born of him. This is how we know that we love God’s children; when we love God and obey His commands.

We were created out of the overflow of God’s love – That is a powerful reality that we often don’t fully comprehend. In today’s conversation, Candace and Tara-Leigh dive deep into the love of God; to understand His love we must understand the Trinity. He is always who He has been and He always will be. We are just learning more and more about that every day.  

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Tara-Leigh discuss: 

• How the “God of love” and “love is God” are very different.  
• Becoming more like God is as simple as spending time with Him.  
• Rolling your gratitude up and pointing back to Jesus in your everyday life.  

Scripture Memory of the Season: 1 John 5:1 (CSB) Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father also loves the one born of him.

When you read scripture, are you searching for God or are you looking for yourself? Because the lens through which we read scripture is a game changer to our faith journey. God wants to be known and revealed, and that is what He does throughout scripture as we see The Trinity described. This may be complex to grasp, but Candace Cameron Bure and her guest host Tara-Leigh Cobble want to walk you through understanding it as you grow in your faith. 

In this episode, you will hear Candace and Tara-Leigh discuss: 

• Where faith began for them, and how it has evolved over the years. 
• The importance of reading through the Bible looking for God, not for yourself. 
• The difference between joy and happiness, and how God is adjacent to joy all throughout scripture. 
• God as Triune; Father, Son, and Spirit 
  

Scripture Memory for this episode: 

1 John 5:1 (CSB) Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father also loves the one born of him.
