Product Description
Studio: Tcfhe Release Date: 05/02/2008
Amazon.com
Set in a frontier world of bonnets and one-room schoolhouses, Love's Enduring Promise follows a headstrong young teacher named Missie (January Jones, Bandits), the daughter of Clark and Marty Davis (Dale Midkiff and Katherine Heigl) from previous prairie romance Love Comes Softly. After Clark injures himself in a woodcutting accident, the family farm is in danger of failing--until a handsome young stranger (Logan Bartholomew) helps out. Missie finds herself drawn to this man, but the intelligence and graciousness of young railroad magnate (Mackenzie Austin, How to Deal) appeals to a side of her that yearns to go beyond the hills and valleys of her childhood. What could be romantic froth becomes a quiet, well-paced, and thoughtful love story, thanks to a solid script, capable performances, and clean direction. Jones is particularly engaging; Missie could have been blandly virtuous, but Jones draws a rich and subtle range of emotions out of her scenes. Religious viewers will appreciate the movie's commitment to wholesome storytelling and clear moral perspective. Love's Enduring Promise, like Love Comes Softly, is based on a novel by Christian writer Janet Oke, though Love's Enduring Promise departs more from its source. --Bret Fetzer

 Lovely Film October 27, 2009
Wendy Sparkes (Suffolk, UK)
Whenever you see the words "based on" you know the film isn't going to follow the original story...as proves the case in this series. I don't usually like films that are "based on" - particularly if I have loved the original stories - but I did enjoy this series directed by Michael Landon Jr. If you can accept these aren't the stories of the books written by Christian author Janette Oke, they are an enjoyable set of films of love & faith to watch in their own right.
In this film:
Missie Davis has grown up, & is now teacher at the school. She has attracted the interest of wealthy Grant Thomas -a surveyor with the railroad - who sets out to woo her.
Clark Davis has a serious accident, which means he now can't plough or plant. As Marty takes care of Clark, Missie closes the school & takes over the ploughing - struggling rather! Stranger Nate (or is he? Clark & Missie are sure he's familiar) who helped bring Clark back to the farm after his accident appears again & takes over the ploughing & planting - much to Missie's relief. He also saves Clark's leg through vital surgery.
Which man will Missie choose - the one who can offer her everything so there won't be any difficulties to worry about, or the one who will love her through the difficulties that arise?

Fred Crowley (Erie, PA USA)
I sent for this dvd to give to my daughter on her birthday in October. She will be 49 and always loved " The Little House on the Prairie." We also have 4 boys, so I, being her dad, had to keep the pease and let Liz watch her favorite show on TV. I'm sure she will love this gift.

Good movie with morals! February 15, 2009
Wisconsonite (Wisconsin)
These are engaging stories, with good morals and great drama. Set on the frontier, even guys may enjoy these dvds. They won't like the title, but they may be surprised by the story line.
absolutley beautiful and wonderously enthralling October 29, 2008

these are beautiful little period pieces continuing in the tradition of "little house on the prairie" or "the waltons" --shows which display intelligent, hard working, spiritual people who do not need anything other than their faith and their love for each other to get by in life. wonderfully moral without ever being fake or preachy, these books and this series of the "love's" chronicles will transport you to a different time when television was simpler and so was life.
the sunlit outdoor scenes of the country side, farm, small town, and and country life back in the pioneer days will remind you of your grandparents' childhoods. the sensitively cast and well-acted characters will remind you of teachers, friends, relatives, and other people of noteworthy guidance and inspiration in your life
the two littlest boys are total charmers and i couldn't stop thinking about my nephew listening to one of them speak. katherine heigl is wonderful in her pre-grey's anatomy sky rocket to fame and in her few though powerful scenes you can see the talent and ability that will catapult her to fame. dale midkiff as her unexpected second husband is moving and magnificent as a devout man of pure heart and love for his family and way of life. the young actor portraying willie/nate is outstanding as is the other who portrays his rival for january jones's characters affection, whom i personally thought did a wonderful job
do yourself a favour and rent or order these movies--you will be surprised at how easily you are touched and transfixed by such a simple, honest tale about the power of love, honour, faith, courage, hope, and family. i know i was.
highly recommended.

You should really start with the first of these wonderfully inspiring movies Love Comes Softly and follow with each of the rest in order to really get the full experience . I viewed all of them one Saturday and watched for almost 5 hours and wasn't the least bit bored . In fact I went to bed with the most uplifting spirit Iv'e had in a long time.
