Marriage and his new movie
April 09， 2009
Kirk Cameron， who rose to fame as Mike Seaver in ABC's Growing Pains from 1985-1992， switched from atheism to Christianity in 1990， married his onscreen girlfriend， Chelsea Noble， in 1991， and is dad to six children-four of them adopted.
Despite his Hollywood background， he had to audition for the role of Caleb holt in Fireproof. The movie is the latest from Sherwood pictures， a nonprofit ministry of Sherwood Baptist Church in Albany， Georgia. It previously put out the popular facing the Giants and the lesser-known flywheel.
Fireproof is the story of a fire captain who is called a hero in public but who is facing marital burnout at home. Caleb's lack of love， time and interest for his wife is accompanied by her budding romantic attachment to a coworker， and both have been so hurt that neither is interested in working on the marriage.
But don't think the plot is dry or predictable.
"It's a fun movie. It's action-packed，" Cameron said in a phone interview from Beverly Hills. "I hope that more people make movies like this that have strong stories with redeeming messages."
Here is what the 37-years-old actor had to say about his family， his faith and the movie：
Q： You have four adopted children， ages 11， 10，9 and I， and two biological children， ages 7 and 5. Has being an adoptive family given you any special insights into the way God adopts people into his family？
A： Adoption is wonderful-what a great picture of God's love for us. You can say to your adoptive children， "We chose to love you." That's how it is with the Lord…。It's worked out great. My wife is an adopted child herself， so it's a natural part of our family.
