The Best of UNA: Candace Cameron Bure on Full House, her Faith Journey, & Being a Christian in Hollywood
**Over the next few weeks, we’re re-releasing some of our favorite Unapologetic episodes as a way to celebrate the first year of UNA! This conversation with Candace Cameron Bure, all about being a Christian in Hollywood, originally aired on February 8th, 2023.
A lot of us grew up with (or at least watched reruns of!) Candace Cameron Bure playing DJ Tanner on “Full House.” But that iconic role as America’s big sister is just part of Candace’s story! On this special episode of Unapologetic, Julia sits down with Candace to talk about how she left Hollywood at the peak of her young career, her time as a stay-at-home mom, and why she chose to return to the spotlight—using her platform as a way to spread the love of Jesus.
Throughout their conversation, Candace unapologetically shares her testimony, gives a glimpse into family life with brother Kirk Cameron, discusses mental health struggles in Hollywood, and gives her best advice for Christians who want to go into media. You may think you know Candace Cameron Bure, but you don’t know her like this! Julia also shares how God used “Full House” to plant the desire in her heart for multiples and how DJ Tanner inspired her sister Dorothy’s childhood nickname. Don’t miss out on this uplifting and fun episode!
