Okay. I just love this woman. I love her heart for the Lord and her no nonsense but kind and compassionate attitude. What a beautiful lady. Such an incredible role model.
Wow!!! I caught myself trying 9 times to rehit the like button, but RUclips only allows once. Such a blessing of an interview. These two women really love the Lord Almighty. I'm an adult man and I'm ugly crying in the middle of work right now. I was so blessed with this video. Blessings to you. All glory and honor only to God.
😮WOW. She said "When we got to America I couldn't imagine sending my kids away to school.....there was a strength in being together" . That is so beautiful. Most people can't imagine life without sending their kids away, or taking a bunch a trips to get away from their children. The joy that she has in being with her family is so beautiful. They speak so highly of her because they could sense the genuine joy she had in being there. She wanted to be there. Thats so beautiful. Her children rise up and call her blessed. I aspire to be like that for my husband and children.
Rebecca St. James was one of my favorite Christian artists as a teen. I love that they have shared their story. The way this Mom owns her mistakes with her youngest is so amazing. And it hasn't affected their relationship. Such a Testament to her and her youngest daughter's trust in God. Truly remarkable family! Loved the movie Unsung Hero! Love this interview. Well done Candace! 👏❤
My husband and I just got back from seeing the movie. Oh how it drew me in. We homeschooled our kids, I’m going to another state on Wed to be there for our 6th grandchild’s birth. I confess in the early 90s we were still listening to Keith Green, 2nd chapter of Acts, Honeytree and Don Francisco but in 2000 our girls were asked at a resort we were staying at who their favorite Christian singers were and they decided they needed to look around and I have been on a 24 year journey doing just that myself. Listening to Christian worship helps in all the struggles of life. It's the best movie I have seen since the Sound of Music! and knowing how this is so based in fact is uplifting!!! Marti Ross
What a lovely woman of faith! I love how when she answered the viewer questions, she always mentioned prayer, you should talk to God.❤️ I hope to be like that when I'm her age.😊
My husband I I saw the movie last night and it was FABULOUS! The acting was some of the best I’ve ever seen and the story is nothing short of a miracle! We are Christians but my husband was hesitant to go because he said that typically the acting in Christian movies isn’t great. However, he was blown away at the quality of the acting, the camera shots, the direction and the production in general! Wow! I hope people go to see this!!!!
Just got back from seeing Unsung Hero. Thank you Candace for producing this movie! We need family positive movies. Jack Hibbs recommended this movie highly and so glad he did. ❤
We just saw this movie last night. It was really good and we loved seeing how Jesus moved in faithful leading in ways that were so accurate. And of course, we're thankful for how it's all turned out because of the music being shared as a result! All the best to your families. :)
I am seeing the movie tonight with my son, Joel, for his 26th birthday. Wonderful interview ladies!!! ❤ I truly enjoyed it and was encouraged in so many ways, so thank you to both of you.
Mama truly understood her assignment- being a great mother and wife who was raising greatness Timely - the unsung hero just changed a lot of thought life - and yes I loved the movie dearly … thank you Mama for letting your story be told to the world … blessings beyond Love from Kenya 🇰🇪
Another great episode!! Thank you Helen!! You came to America the same year I was married to my American husband!! Yes I'm an Australian living in America!! God is so good!! 🥰🙏🥰🙏
I wish I had someone like her as a mentor when I was raising kids, instead of looking at them in their 30's and feeling all the times I went wrong and didn't give them what they needed.
What a blessing reading Helen's book. It excited us for the movie. My wife and I took our kids, their spouses, and our grandchildren to see Unsung Hero the last 2 weekends. Everyone loved it! Go see it, but read Helen's book as well.
Such a great interview! My dad contracted Lyme's Disease on a hunting trip and was in stage 4 by the time he got a diagnosis. That part really resonated with me.
Hi Cadance, My sister saw unsung hero,she loved it.I haven't saw it yet.But I will,I told her your were,in the movie she said she thought, you looked familiar LOL! Keep up the GOD Work. Cadance and thank you.❤❤
Not sure if I heard about the movie or saw the title in a dream.I knew I had to see tonight .so appropriate for me at this time. Thank you to the original family and all who participated in this project. What a story! So appreciative of the beautiful examples of strong faith. I had tears in my eyes during certain parts of the movie. Great film!
I was so blessed by this podcast! Her life is a testimony and shines for Jesus. I grew up as a young teen with Rebecca St James as a role model that I looked up to, and it’s easy to see that her life for Christ was modeled out for her by her mom.
I love this episode and could listen to the Australian accent all day long! Saw the movie several wks ago and Mama Smallbone is my favorite character! What an inspiration she is in this interview as well. Thanks also for the listener questions. You actually answered MY question today about my son losing a baby. I do appreciate your heartfelt answers. ❤️
To Karen, what a beautiful love story with our living God! I believe God is using your life as a megaphone to redirect the global family. May He continue using you dear sister.
Unfortunatel I too have gone through my older son losing his first born baby girl. I am big about touch, holding my son and telling them I am here or just sitting with him and his wife. Prayer, prayer, prayer now as they go through the loss, but Also with later as the loss keeps coming back. Praying for the mom that sent in the question
Helen, I recently watched a video on Revive our Hearts -- study about hospitality, " You're welcome here." The most recent video had Erin David interviewing a young woman from Texas who had lymes disease and she shared a little about how it affected her profoundly from a young age (11?) Maybe your youngest daughter could connect with this lady. I also know of a few ladies who know the Lord here in my town, who are on the same journey but it happened to them after they were 20ish. Maybe your daughter already has community where you live to encourage her, but if not let her know not to be afraid to reach out. Community is so important in the healing process. - Respectfully, Andrea
I saw it in a theater last week. As a husband and father, I am concerned at how the Dad was vilified. So he was depressed for a time due to not being able to work and provide for his family. Most men have a God-given desire to provide, so that was understandable. And he told Rebecca the TRUTH about the cut-throat "Christian" music business. So what did he have to apologize for? Meanwhile, the Mom was portrayed as assaulting him with physical violence - which is never OK. What am I missing here?
If you listen to the interview, these two families spent time together a lot! Please don’t make snap judgments before spending some effort listening. They had more quality time than most families.
It depends on the words said during grief. Aome people are words of encouragement people. Ask God if we should speak and if so what to say that would edify
Too bad the doctors didn’t test her blood for limes went as a teenager and haven’t been active as an equestrian, and your joints are aching. That should’ve been a red flag.
Okay. I just love this woman. I love her heart for the Lord and her no nonsense but kind and compassionate attitude. What a beautiful lady. Such an incredible role model.
I agree Amen to that. We need to appreciate our parents more. They were here before us. They know more. God has truly blessed and loved us.

Proud of Mom Smallbone for sticking up for God's glory.
Candace Cameron is like my daughter but she is my hero.

Yes, she always pointed people back to Jesus…

I love how Helen and Rebecca refer to the guys as “the boys.” 🥰
Lol...my mom & I always refer to my younger brothers as 'the boys' as well...even though they're grown family men now. ~.~
We saw the movie on opening day - absolutely loved it!! Such a beautiful story!! Thank you so much for bringing their story to life on the screen! ❤
I love Helen Smallbone, she reminds me of my own mom so much!!
Saw this movie last night! So good!!! Candace I LOVED YOU IN THIS ROLE! Not your typical role but loved it!
When you (Candace) said what role you played I said I want to go see it again SOON!
We just saw this movie last night. It was really good and we loved seeing how Jesus moved in faithful leading in ways that were so accurate. And of course, we're thankful for how it's all turned out because of the music being shared as a result! All the best to your families. :)

Precious interview. What a lovely Christian Woman of God. And you also Candace. Very heartfelt and anointed!
What a blessing that was. Thank you for sharing and encouraging us!
Beautiful interview. I learned a lot.
A lot of godly wisdom and honesty in Helen. Very refreshing and encouraging❣
"A new season's coming." ❤ Great answer.
He is the lamp unto our feet....the next step.
Thank you for this inspiring interview. Loved the movie. Loved the testimony!
Love the answer to the last writer question: Follow Jesus on His plans for my life…Amen ❤

She is a role model as a woman, wife and mother! I wish I had heard this interview before I raised my kids!
Candace makes me cry. In a good way.
Got our tickets and going Sunday after church. So excited
Perfect advice-"LIVE FOR JESUS!" Yes!!!!
Just watched it today with my guys. What a triumph!! Loved every minute of it. Thank you from Ontario, Canada 🫶🏽

God doesnt expect our performance and high achieving he wants our heart.
Amen
Thank you!!❤
Love this so much
I Throughly Enjoyed the Movie 🎥
great Movie and I love this movie

I didn’t realize the movie was shot in my beautiful state of Kentucky.
Where ironically our theme is unbridled spirit.
I would love to see an extension to the movie to see all the miracles that really happened
Yes and amen
I want to be thought of as the glue, like this mama
Helen is God's Girl displaying what it is to Follow Jesus ❤
I find it a little odd many who are often on movie set music tours and ministry as careers focus on family but are away from them alot.
If you listen to the interview, these two families spent time together a lot! Please don’t make snap judgments before spending some effort listening. They had more quality time than most families.
My big takeaway is her legacy of faithful prayer with her husband for their kids/family
Mandisa passed away😢🌻🙏
I almost didn't hit the "like" button because it was at 665. SMH. Someone else hit like, please! LOL
Walking the journey which Jesus has chosen for you. The best advice of all. Ephesians 3:20.
I had a Kirk Cameron Pillowcase. Yup, no shame
❤❤❤❤❤❤

TIFFANY-The listener question
She may be going through perimenopause and hormones are likely playing a roll, a function doctor can help!
Rebeccas voice sounds like Helens. I wonder if she also sings
Has there been any sibling jealousy
The God of miracles and the impossible can slow down biological clocks or restart them.
Too bad the doctors didn’t test her blood for limes went as a teenager and haven’t been active as an equestrian, and your joints are aching. That should’ve been a red flag.
I just found this podcast for the first time!
Why does it feel like I’m coming home? 🥲 🏠 Thanks for rocking it, Candace.
Welcome!!
