ELEANOR BROWN (Kayla Hayes)

Eleanor Brown is a high school teacher in Birmingham with a background in theater. While she had not acted recently, she sensed God encouraging her to connect with Sherwood, which eventually led her auditioning and being selected as Kayla, the wife of Nathan Hayes and the mother of three in COURAGEOUS. Eleanor is an active member of her church in Birmingham.

Eleanor on what she likes in her character:
"I like that Kayla is very supportive of her husband as she strives to be a godly wife and mother. Kayla is very family oriented—her heart is there with them. I love my family very much and draw strength from their support and encouragement."
