The Other Side of Heaven 2: Fire of Faith (2019)

Sequel to the acclaimed Disney-distributed film of 2001, The Other Side of Heaven 2 continues the inspiring true saga of Elder John H. Groberg as he returns to the islands with his wife and five young daughters to serve as president of the Tonga-Fiji mission.

John Groberg returns to Tonga for his second round of missionary adventures, this time bringing his wife and family. When their son is born critically ill, the Grobergs face the ultimate test of their faith, only to find themselves surrounded by the love and prayers of thousands of Tongans of all denominations. Barriers of inter-religious strife (the Grobergs are Mormons) are broken down as an entire nation unites in hopes of a miracle that will save the baby’s life, as well as that of a Tongan minister’s son who is in a coma in an adjacent hospital room.

The Other Side of Heaven 2: Fire of Faith is a 2019 adventure biography drama film directed by Mitch Davis. It is the sequel to the 2001 film The Other Side of Heaven. Heaven 2 continues the story of John H. Groberg, who returns to the islands of Tonga, where he served as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ten years prior.

This time he is a mission president for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He brings his family along: his wife, Jean Groberg (née Sabin), and their five daughters. The film stars Christopher Gorham as John Groberg and Natalie Medlock as Jean Groberg. It is based on Groberg’s second autobiography The Fire of Faith.
