The Bible has much to say about the Rapture. Yet people hold very different views about its nature or find it too confusing altogether to understand. By asking not only when the Rapture will come, but more importantly how and why it will come, Before the Wrath fills in these gaps in our knowledge. With newly discovered evidence from Galilee in the days Jesus walked the earth, this docudrama presents the coming Rapture as a proven fact. Featuring interviews with leading theologians and powerful cinematic reenactments of Jesus’ ministry, Before the Wrath is the key to discovering what Jesus’ listeners clearly understood about the Rapture through His teachings.

You’ve no doubt heard stories of great animosity between Jewish Israelis and Palestinians in the media. Are these stories blown out of proportion, or is the divide as troubling as you think?
Look through the lens of an American Christian as he immerses himself in the land of Israel and studies both groups. His journey reveals the complexity of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the humanity of Jewish people, Muslims, and Christians alike in the Holy Land.
Proverbs teaches us that a wise person hears both sides. As believers it’s our responsibility to abide by this important Scripture. A word of caution: Hope in the Holy Land takes an honest look at the Jewish Israeli/Palestinian conflict, expressing personal opinions from both sides and occasionally displaying graphic images.

Erwin Lutzer and Randall Price. We hope it will educate, challenge, and ultimately encourage you in your love for the Lord and the people of Israel!
