Caleb is a nominal Christian but both are unbelievers. Caleb’s father encourages him to follow a 40-day plan to save his marriage laid out in his Dad’s religious journal.
The movie gets its name from Caleb’s job as a firefighter. He must fireproof his marriage. In the process Caleb and Catherine realize that marriage requires God to be healthy and fulfilling.
