Did Trump fulfill a divine prophecy? What to expect from a new Liberty University film.
0:03 / 0:30
Liberty University plans to release a film about a firefighter who in 2011 said God told him Donald Trump would be president.
The question either infuriates or intrigues tens of millions of Americans: Did God play a role in the victory of Donald Trump? The debate will soon be presented in movie theaters across the country, as evangelical megaschool Liberty University is making and releasing a film called “The Trump Prophecy.”
The film, which will be released in 1,200 theaters this fall, is Liberty’s largest production to date, and it pairs the university with an independent Christian filmmaker who raised $1 million for the project — a sum its director says could double with postproduction and distribution costs.
