Description

In the uneasy years after the Second Coming, a small gathering in an ancient Warwickshire manor becomes the unlikely setting for a stark exploration of the coming Tribulation. As rumors of the Antichrist’s reign spread, ordinary people wrestle with the terrifying prospect of the Mark of the Beast and the fate that awaits those who refuse it. Their conversations reveal deep anxieties and a desperate search for meaning in a world turned upside down.

Presented as a vivid, scripture‑grounded parable, the story follows these characters through the first trembling months of the end‑times, portraying the pressure to choose between worldly survival and spiritual fidelity. Through realistic dialogue and evocative scenes, the narrative invites listeners to contemplate the biblical warnings while feeling the palpable tension of a society on the brink. It offers a thoughtful, stirring portrait of faith tested in the darkest hours, encouraging careful reflection without giving away the later twists.
