SYNOPSIS
This movie is based on the Bible's Old Testament book of Song of Songs written by Solomon, son of King David.
Jed King (Alan Powell) is the son of a famous country singer David King (Aaron Benward). He is an aspiring singer/songwriter but is living in the shadows of his father. He married Rose (Ali Faulkner) and on their honeymoon wrote her a love song which will catapult him into stardom. Fast forward five years later, they have a family and lives on the vineyard while Jed's successful music career takes him on the road almost all the time. He asked Rose to come with him on the road but she can't leave her ailing father. This brings a toil in their relationship. Jed met Shelby (Caitlin Nicol-Thomas) as his front act on his tour. Soon after they will have an affair and comes all the bad vices (drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, fornication). Their affair will bring turmoil to his marriage and eventually break his family.
REVIEW
I love Christian movies. There should be more Christian movies produced. It's a feel good movie even if there is drama because it hits home. The movie is realistic and show what marriage can go through if not protected and what happens when a man forgets about God and just follow his flesh or earthly desires. The movie is about hope, dreams, discontentment, mistakes, pain, forgiveness, redemption, love and grace. We all make mistakes, surely no one is perfect.
