Miley Cyrus in talks to star in film adaptation of Christian novel

Radio Disney is one of my favorite stations to listen to while I'm in the car. The music is fun, upbeat, and full of positive lyrics that encourage listeners to follow their dreams. Sure, it's geared towards tweens and teens but I know I'm not the only adult who enjoys singing along to the High School Musical soundtracks. What I like most about Radio Disney is that it has created a family-friendly atmosphere where young Christians like Miley Cyrus, the Jonas Brothers, Aly & AJ and Corbin Bleu can share their music on a national platform and show kids that they don't have to be wild and raunchy to be successful in the entertainment industry.

That's why I was really excited to find out that one of my favorite Christian authors, Karen Kingsbury, is hoping to team up with Miley Cyrus in a film adaptation. Kingsbury's March 20th newsletter said this:

"Again, I can’t tell you many details . . . but I can say that our purpose in meeting up with Miley was to discuss her deep interest in starring in one of the upcoming movies based on my books. Miley loves Jesus very much. Please continue to pray for her and her family."
Now that you've heard the news, let's get to praying!

That is good to know that not only her singing and acting career is jumping off. Now she is going to be able to share the Christian Inside of her with other teens.

I think our youth need more Christian based "role modles"

That seems really awesome for Miley Cyrus!! It is good to know that popular teens like her are christian, and love Jesus. This would be real good for her!

I'm glad Miley is being bold enough to share her faith with all the kids who look up to her. Hollywood is a crazy place and she can really be a light in a dark place.

Thanks for the comments Miryam and Dman.

I think Miley has "Destiny" in this business. lol but it's cool that is a good teen not just because she works for Disney. I know she get compared to Hilary Duff all the time but , Hilary Duff made being a good girl cool in Hollywood thats why I admire her. Plus it's always nice to see celebs not deny their faith and acutally talk about GOD in Hollywood ! like the Jonas Brothers , Miley Cyrus , Corbin Bleu , Aly & Aj , Tia & Tamera among a few

Yeah, Miley and Hilary Duff are great just being who they are. Their music is positive and fun and with all the mess in this world it's nice to have their music around.
