PureFlix just dropped Timeless Tidings of Joy and I'm still crying happy tears! This is the most beautiful Christian Christmas movie I've seen in forever. It's pure joy wrapped in twinkling lights, hot cocoa, and that warm, fuzzy feeling only a faith-filled love story can give you. Candace Cameron Bure is radiant as always, but the real magic? Watching her real-life daughter Natasha Bure play Candace's on-screen grandmother in the flashback scenes! Mind officially blown. Little DJ Tanner all grown up, now acting alongside her own baby girl as her grandma. Full-circle, full-heart, full-on tears every time they share the screen. The chemistry is so real you forget it's acting. The story is everything Christmas should be: a sweet, slow-burn romance where love isn't about grand gestures or getting something back, it's about quietly showing up for someone because God put them in your path. No "what's in it for me?" Just pure, selfless, "How can I bless you today?" love. And the way they weave in trusting God's timing when life feels messy? Whew, I felt that in my soul. Snowy small-town vibes, carols that make you tear up, and a message that screams: God's plan is always better than ours, even when we can't see two steps ahead. By the end I was smiling through tears, hugging my family, and ready to love people a little harder this Christmas. PureFlix nailed it. 10 stars, no notes. Grab the tissues, the hot chocolate, and the whole family; this one's going on repeat all December. Thank You, Jesus, for stories like this!

Let me start by saying I have found Candice to be one of my favorite actresses as her movies are always wholesome and I don't have to try to forget I saw something. If you love romance, real love, and following what you feel God has called you to, I think you will like this as much as me. This was the type of movie my mom and I would watch together on a Saturday afternoon at Christmas when I came home from school. I didn't know, even from the commercials, how this was going to end up, but it was a delight. I want more movies like this and PureFlix has been providing them faster than I have time to watch!
I liked Candice Bure when she was with Hallmark and always enjoyed Paul Green so I decided to risk watching a GAF movie in hopes I didn't get a sermon - I was wrong and it is sad because the story is intriguing and could have been entertaining if God didn't help so much - In the First 30 minutes God helped almost a dozen times but I stuck with it anyway because I like the story - then God to a breather and didn't but came back after about 15 minutes and the sermon continues and I stopped watching - How to destroy an otherwise good story and excellent acting buy trying to convince folks that God really cares.
