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
Description: Clark and Marty Davis were caught in a "marriage of convenience" that over time turned into deep mutual respect and love. In this sequel, they now preside over a growing family in their little prairie house. But as they reach out to those in their frontier community, they discover that love is not limited by the size of a dwelling.
Inspirational story about finding true love. The second of the "Love Comes Softly" videos. These stories should be seen by every child in America. Michael Landon Jr has continued where his father has left off and I know he is in heaven looking down on his son with such great pride and love. If you can't afford to buy them all (six so far) then I urge you to watch them on The Hallmark Channel and pick your favorite and add it to your video collection. I bought these for my grandchildren which I hope to have someday so they won't miss out on these special stories. I just hope they continue the videos.
A TRUE BLESSING
THE SECOND MOVIE, FROM " LOVE COMES SOLFTY"
WILLIE, IS A TRUE BLESSING, AND THIS TELL'S YOU MONEY CAN'T BUY EVERYTHING

Loves Enduring Promise Surviving struggles of hardships with a fulfilling relationship.
Very clean family movie and have your hankie by your side
Love story for all I was flipping channels and stopped on the Hallmark channel and caught the middle of this movie. I had to order it and see how it all began. I watched the next 4 movies and all are great movies. I have been passing them to all my friends! These movies are good quality and good family values with Godly principles.
jeeeeeah. i know it didn't follow the story lines of the original jeanette oak series--it bugs me too...in fact--one of my sisters is so enraged she won't even watch these...i haven't read the series but i hear what they say and i hate it when people butcher original stories...but all that aside--it's a good story...once the entire series is out on movie and i've seen them all--i'm going to read the original series and see what really happened...i don't want to confuse the two series--yes i'm labeling them as different...
and--so i don't get beat up by my family once they read this--SHAME ON YOU MICHAEL LANDON JR.--taking a masterpiece and butchering it so!!
