Candace Cameron Bure has grown up before our eyes and we've watched as she's balanced life in Hollywood with her faith for many years. But that all reached new heights when she was given the opportunity to join the cast of Dancing With the Stars. Being on the show was one of her dreams come true; and with that dream came the opportunity to display her Christian faith in front of millions of people, through an intense season of stretching beyond her limits, and to run the race God gave her with joy and perseverance. Join Candace as she reflects on the self-discovery that came through leaping out of her comfort zone. Go behind the scenes and experience the highs and lows, the roadblocks, and the personal victories. Hear straight from her heart on tough lessons learned about grace, rejection, perfectionism, disappointment, accountability, dealing with criticism, and more. Through God's strength, and with the help of endless support from her family and friends, see how Candace stayed true to herself and publicly lived out her faith in Christ all the way to the finale. How do you stand with conviction in your world? Where does your courage come from when faced with challenges? How do you live out your faith on a daily basis despite opposition? Your stage probably isn't in Hollywood and the challenges you are facing may not be on live television, but they are no less real. Come along with Candace as she shares how she found the courage to stand with conviction on one of the largest platforms of her life.

      Reflecting on her time as a contestant on Dancing with the Stars, actress and author Bure (Reshaping It All) brings readers backstage, behind the makeup, and into the dynamics of the popular reality competition in this well-written Christian memoir. Bure writes honestly about topics like modesty, submission, and femininity in relation to the show and media culture, providing scriptural examples that guided her through trying times. A longtime fan of the show, she shares her excitement over being invited to participate; relates off-camera moments and lessons learned with her dance partner, Mark Ballas, as they move toward the finale; and explores ways of controlling her personal boundaries in a sexually charged environment. Bure also talks with candor about her well-known battle with nerves and about criticism she received on social media from Christians during the competition. Often referring to the Bible, Bure supports her personal convictions with a commitment fully grounded in faith. Bure’s refreshingly honest voice and choice to emphasize spiritual insights over celebrity gossip make this more than just another cultural memoir.
