CAROL STREAM, Ill., May 7 /Christian Newswire/ -- With all eyes currently on Israel, New York Times best-selling author Joel C. Rosenberg, Solomon Productions and Tyndale House Publishers have turned Rosenberg's best-selling non-fiction book, "Epicenter: Why The Current Rumblings In The Middle East Will Change Your Future," into a powerful new documentary film to be released on DVD on June 5, 2007.

The launch of "Epicenter" will be supported by a two-hour live radio special on June 3 followed by a weekend special on June 9 and 10 on Christian radio stations nationwide, just in time for the 40th anniversary of Israel's Six Day War.

Shot in high definition video in locations from Jerusalem to Washington, DC, "Epicenter" brings current events in the Middle East and their potential implications into stark focus. The one-hour documentary is hosted by bestselling author Joel Rosenberg and Pastor Skip Heitzig, of Calvary Chapel Albuquerque.

Perfect for use in church, small group, and book club settings, the DVD documentary includes exclusive interviews with:

  • Benjamin Netanyahu, former prime minister of Israel
  • Natan Sharansky, former Israeli deputy prime minister
  • Pastor Chuck Smith, senior pastor Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa
  • Iranian Shiite converts to Christianity

 

"We were certainly blindsided by 9/11," says Rosenberg. "The question is: Are we going to be blindsided by events that are coming?"

Incorporating history, Biblical prophecy and current political affairs, Rosenberg and his guests provide clarity about the impending threats facing Israel and the West, zeroing in on such critical issues as:

  • The emerging alliance between Russia and Iran
  • Iranian President Ahmadinejad's belief in the Islamic Messiah and foreign policy
  • The power struggle between Muslims and Jews over the Temple Mount
  • Radical Islam's determination to wage a winner-take-all global jihad
  • The record number of Muslims coming to Christ, particularly in Iran

 

The "Epicenter" DVD also includes two hours of bonus footage and interviews that will inspire viewers to examine the news in a whole new light.

Joel Rosenberg is a former political consultant and the author of five bestselling books, including "The Last Jihad," "The Last Days," "The Ezekiel Option" and "The Copper Scroll". He is a popular Middle East analyst on hundreds of television and radio programs, including FOX and CNN. Skip Heitzig is a Bible expert and senior pastor of Calvary Chapel of Albuquerque.
