In the film, Candace will reportedly star as a real estate agent and mom named Maggie Larson. In addition to starring in the film, she will be an executive producer on the project as well. Candace told PEOPLE, “A Christmas … Present is about slowing down enough to recognize what’s right in front of our eyes. The hustle and bustle of the Christmas season will arrive before we know it but it’s through the quiet moments that we hear God speak to us, directing our path to what’s most important.”
