Based on the bestselling novel by faith-based novelist Francine Rivers and directed by D. J. Caruso, Redeeming Love is a powerful story of relentless love and perseverance as a young couple’s relationship clashes with the harsh realities of the California Gold Rush of 1850. The story is the retelling of Hosea and Gomer from the biblical account in the Old Testament.

Angel, played by Abigail Cowen, expects only pain from those around her. Sold into prostitution as a child, Angel survives with hatred towards herself and the men who use her. She meets Michael Hosea, played by Tom Lewis, a farmer who believes God wants Angel to be his wife. Dire circumstances force Angel to accept his proposal, but her wounded heart mends when Michael defies her bitter expectations.

As Angel encounters a love unlike anything she has ever experienced, feelings of unworthiness and shame cause her to run from a life she doesn’t think she deserves. As Michael sets out to find her, Angel discovers no brokenness that love can’t heal.

Cowan’s screen credits include I Still Believe, another faith-based movie.

Also starring is Eric Dane and Famke Janssen.
