In new faith film Miracles from Heaven, which is based on a true story, actress Jennifer Garner plays Christy Beam, the mother of a young girl Annabel (Kylie Rogers) who is diagnosed with an incurable and painful disease.
Because of the illness, pressure on the young family was high as Annabel had to undergo numerous hospital appointments and procedures.
However, one day Annabel was involved in a freak accident and fell from a tree and hit her head. When she came to, doctors discovered she'd somehow been cured.
"I mean there's reason there's a movie and a book about it," explained Garner in an interview. "It's not a small thing that happened, it's a really big thing that happened that this child would be cured of something that's incurable and free from pain that she had for so many years but yeah, I think maybe I had a moment of cynicism about the story but not when I met Christy and certainly not when I met Annabel. "
"This movie did bring faith back into the conversation of my life and did make me realize that my kids weren't just going to get this via osmosis because my parents had given this to me, that I actually had to be intentional and to participate in it. I think I'd been lazy about it so I got off my duff and we had a conversation and found a church we loved where we've been totally embraced and really happy," she said.
Miracles from Heaven goes on release in North America on March 14.
Who is going to be the missionaries to Hollywood?
The same most likely said of Nineveh...the vile part you mentioned.
I don’t argue that but it seems you put more demands on Hollywood then other towns actually worse like DC and many other cities.
I suppose you mean Afrin
It works great but it’s easy to think more more more is better better better
But it gets less effective
I never got stimulated like I would have 1970s nasal inhalers like Dristan or Vicks with ephedrine
I have only been addicted to one thing in my life and she’s been my one and only rib for 20 years
I did smoke pot regularly for 13 years very long ago
Her wiki page says she donated to the Wendy Davis for Gov. campaign.
I thought she was teriffic in Juno as well.
Another great movie.

God is open for business 24/7 365. He hears the prayers of HIS people and answers them in big and small ways.
Awesome!
Is this more “Saved by an Angel” hokus pokus?
Does she mention the name of Jesus at any time?
Yeah she can inspire to be a keyboard warrior judging others despite God’s words telling them not too.
And sometimes He just says no.
Hopefully she’ll come to the realization that she needs Christ and repentance for true Salvation & Peace.
That goes for every lost soul too.
Wonderful, a very good start.
AMEN!
Awesome!
My friend’s granddaughter puts it perfectly:
“God is the ALLEST thing in the world!”
Yes, she has a history of contributing to Pro-Abortion candidates. But pray for her and maybe she’ll come along on that too.
I believe he banged the nanny.
Everybody I know who has seen it said it’s a wonderful film. And this includes an agnostic who complained about taking his granddaughter to see it. He said he was glad he did and they both enjoyed it.
