Waiting for Armageddon

Waiting for Armageddon explores America's 50-million member Evangelical community, a group convinced that the world's future is foretold in Biblical prophecy -- from the Rapture to the Battle of Armageddon. The film follows Evangelicals in their homes, at conferences, and on a wide-ranging tour of Israel, the site where they believe Christ will return again. By interweaving Christian Zionist, Jewish and critical perspectives along with telling archival material, the film probes the politically powerful, and potentially explosive, alliance between Evangelical Christians and Israel -- one that may set the stage for what one prominent Evangelical leader calls "World War III."
