Caleb Holt (Kirk Cameron) is a firefighter in Albany, Georgia who holds the motto "Never leave your partner behind". However, his relationship with his wife Catherine (Erin Bethea) is suffering to a point that she wants a divorce.
Caleb and Catherine each fault the other for the disintegration of their relationship. Among Catherine's complaints are Caleb's addiction to internet pornography and a large sum of money ($24,000) he has saved up for a boat that he intends to buy, ignoring the fact that Catherine's disabled mother is in need of hospital equipment that she cannot afford, and which their insurance doesn't cover. When Caleb tells his father, John, about the impending divorce, John challenges Caleb to commit to a 40-day test which he calls the "Love Dare", and Caleb agrees. Initially Catherine doubts Caleb's sincerity in his attempts to win her back, due to his half-hearted attempts at completing the Love Dare, but Caleb continues with encouragement from his father and his close friend Michael (Ken Bevel), who also encourages him to become a born-again Christian.
As he continues his 40-day challenge, Caleb begins doing more household chores and running more errands for Catherine, and leaves her roses. Caleb even smashes his computer to pieces with a baseball bat in order to remove the temptation of viewing internet pornography. Nevertheless, Catherine, who is led by some colleagues to think that Caleb did all these things with an ulterior motive in mind, is still intent on divorce. When she later learns that the equipment needed for her mother's medical care has been paid for in full, she arranges a lunch date with Dr. Keller, thinking he was the benefactor. Caleb informs Keller that he won't let him have Catherine without a fight; Keller breaks off his relationship with Catherine and reveals that he is actually married.In the meantime, at the hospital where she works, Catherine begins flirting with Dr. Gavin Keller (Perry Revell), who doesn't know she's married, as she stopped wearing her wedding ring. She informs him of her mother's medical situation. Around this time, Caleb injures his arm rescuing a girl from a house fire and is brought to Catherine's hospital, where a nurse inadvertently says in front of Dr. Keller that Caleb is Catherine's husband.
Caleb later finds Catherine at home sick, and decides to take care of her. At this point she asks Caleb why he has changed his behavior, and he mentions "The Love Dare." Caleb then fully apologizes to Catherine for his past selfishness.
Days later, Catherine learns that of the $24,300 cost of her mother's medical equipment, Dr. Keller gave only $300 and Caleb gave $24,000, exhausting his boat savings. At this point she becomes convinced that his desire to change was sincere, and decides to forgive him. The couple then renews their wedding vows in an outdoor ceremony, this time as a covenant with God.
According to the film's novelization, Catherine's mother participates in a special Wheel of Fortune episode for people with disabilities, winning Caleb a boat.
