A retelling of the biblical story of Gomer and Hosea set during the time of the California Gold Rush, Redeeming Love is now considered by many to be a classic work of Christian fiction and it continues to be one of the industry’s top-selling titles year after year. I believe any woman who’s been through any kind of trauma or abuse by a parent should watch this movie.New York Times bestselling author Francine Rivers had a successful writing career in the general market for several years becoming a born-again Christian she then wrote Redeeming Love as her statement of faith. I was abused by both my mother and father growing up so I have an insecure attachment.īut this movie also made me witness how being around the right people can turn an insecure attachment into a secure one.Īll in all, I appreciate you writing this great review. So, in a way, I can also say this movie gives me hope that true love can exist after abuse. She felt safe in his presence and it was that safe energy that healed her and gave her hope.

In fact, not once did Michael make Angel feel insecure in her love for him.

My only hope is that I would marry someone who treats me the way Michael treated Angel. This movie made me feel seen and heard and I am on so grateful. In fact, I think it’s very rare for a Christian movie to even display trauma in this way but I greatly appreciated it. In fact, as a narcissistic abuse survivor, I believe this movie is one of my favorites because it clearly shows the effects trauma can have on someone else’s life. Thank you so much for writing this review! I think I’ve watched the movie 4 or 5 times and I can’t get enough of it.
