The movie is based on the book "Three Miracles From Heaven" by Christy Beam. It's about a young girl miraculously cured from a serious ailment.

Jen and the Queen have each filmed in metro Atlanta before. Jen shot "The Odd Life of Timothy Green" here and Her Majesty filmed "Joyful Noise," "Bessie" and the "Steel Magnolias" remake, directed by Kenny Leon, here. Queen also served as a producer for the VH1 series "Single Ladies."
