“Cancel culture is real, and it’s difficult, and it’s hard,” the “Full House” alum said on the “Unapologetic with Julia Jeffress Sadler” podcast Wednesday, nearly three months after she faced backlash for describing gay marriage as nontraditional.
Cameron Bure, 46, went on to discuss how Christians face prejudice for preaching their beliefs, particularly outside of the US.
“I know there’s all the places in the world, all different countries, where people get severely persecuted for their faith,” she said. “I feel like we’ve had this cushion here in North America where someone yells at us or someone says a mean, negative thing and our feelings get so hurt over it.
The actress added, “And that isn’t nearly the persecution that other people go through from being a Christian in other countries.”
Cameron Bure said that even in times of controversy, she believes it is important that Christians stick to their beliefs while still approaching others with kindness.
“It’s hard, no matter what. Especially when you are a compassionate person and you have a heart for people,” she said. “But it’s important that we speak truth in love, ’cause, listen, nobody’s gonna change, nobody’s gonna listen to you when it comes out angry, when it comes out in a harsh way, but it’s important that we don’t back down.”
The “Fuller House” star shared how proud she is of her children — Natasha, 24, Lev, 22, and Maksim, 21 — for always “sticking to truth.”
“I am so encouraged by my own children. … I’m so proud of them for really sticking to truth and knowing the gospel and being willing to share that because I know it takes bravery, especially in the time we’re living today,” she continued.
Cameron Bure shares her three kids with her husband, Valeri Bure, whom she wed in 1996.
