She discussed her role and her faith during a Q&A session with Facebook followers.

"The film isn’t preachy at all, it just shows you how this family got through what they got through," she said.

Jennifer Garner told Facebook followers she believes in miracles.

"I was moved by Christy’s story," Jennifer said. "Christy is very much a person of faith. It’s not just black and white, clean, pretty. She has doubts, she struggles. Anybody who has any kind of faith should be able to push and pull at it and question it and not believe for a while and come back to it."

Garner has said filming the movie ultimately led her back to church, but noted during the Q&A that it underscored rather than changed her thinking.

"The film reaffirmed what I already believe," she said. You don’t have to go through some huge change. That was a real gift of the movie. I’m really grateful to the Beams for that little nudge."

She believed in miracles before working on the movie, and she believes in them now, she added.
