Plot[]
In present day Antioch, Washington former minister Travis Jordan still lives after losing his faith in God three years before, when his beloved wife was murdered and the criminals never found.
Suddenly, miracles happen in the little town: the new veterinarian’s son survives an accident whilst in a van without one single scratch, Travis’ dog Max revives after being buried, a paraplegic walks, a scarred teenager, and her police officer father (who has a brain tumor) heal.
In all the events, either a group of three men wearing black are seen nearby or only their tall, blond (possible) leader who seems to want everyone to know that “he is coming”. Very soon after this one scruffy, gentle mannered newcomer arrives; Brandon Nichols. He implies through his healing work and preaching that he is Jesus Christ or the better version of the messiah.
The local population soon worships Brandon while Travis and Morgan feel that something is wrong and conduct an investigation, disclosing that evil has possessed the town dwellers.
