The Pulpit - Prelude

“Sometimes the Threat is Already Inside”

When a progressive, midwestern pastor's life is threatened by extremists, she must answer to a gang of interrogating FBI Agents as she reels from the trauma of terrorism. "The Pulpit: Prelude" is about small town politics and the challenges faced by progressive leadership. The film sheds light on the violence and prejudice in a variety of faith communities and the challenges of seeking help from institutions like law enforcement. Inspired by a true story, this short film is a prelude to a feature-length thriller of the same name. "The Pulpit" will return.
