Actress Roma Downey says that after two failed marriages, she received advice from her "Touched By An Angel" co-star.

Downey says Della Reese suggested that she pray that God would choose her next husband.

Downey says her prayer was soon answered when she and television producer Mark Burnett caught each other's eye at a hair salon. They married in 2007 and have since become the power couple behind the Emmy-nominated mini-series "The Bible," the movie "Son of God" and the mini-series "A.D. The Bible Continues."

Their latest project, "Answered Prayers," is a television series about modern day miracles and the power of prayer. It airs Sunday nights on TLC.

Downey says, "Little did we know when we first met and we fell in love that we would literally join forces to create so much together."
