Documentary Summary:This investigation traces the dramatic rise and unraveling of the megachurch phenomenon, revealing how business-style leadership, charismatic branding, and institutional secrecy built a fragile empire at the center of modern American Christianity. Drawing from survivor testimonies, historical analysis, and national data, the film uncovers why scandals in Dallas-Fort Worth were not an isolated event but a symptom of a system designed without meaningful accountability. As celebrity pastors fall and once-dominant churches fracture, this documentary exposes the structural failures, cultural currents, and theological conflicts that brought the megachurch era to its breaking point — and reveals what the next generation of Christian communities may look like.
