The Jerusalem Stone

The Jerusalem Stone is more than a film; it's an invitation to witness the power of faith that transcends boundaries and the enduring hope that unites us all. It is a transformative journey to the heart of the Holy Land and center of the world.

In the heart of Jerusalem lies an incredible story waiting to unfold - a story that captures the essence of biblical prophecy, the deep-rooted spiritual heritage shared by Jews, Christians and Muslims and the everlasting quest for peace.

The Jerusalem Stone is not just a film; it's a divine invitation to witness the fulfillment of God's promises, the power of prayer, and the unity that transcends centuries of conflict.

Jerusalem, a city known for its profound biblical significance, stands as a testament to the enduring faith and spiritual journey of believers across millennia. Despite its history marked by turmoil and strife, Jerusalem embodies the promise of peace, a beacon of hope for all who cherish its sacred grounds.

The Foundation Stone, known in Hebrew as the "Even haShetiya," is an ancient and profoundly significant site located at the heart of Jerusalem, within the confines of the Temple Mount.

This sacred stone carries immense religious and historical significance across Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions, making it a cornerstone of spiritual heritage for billions around the world.

However, it is here on this sacred ground that the deepest rooted conflicts impacting humanity have taken hold. No place in the world has seen more bloodshed and destruction than Jerusalem - The city of Peace. Why?

This  movie, rich with historical and scriptural insights, will bridge divides, foster understanding, and inspire unity in a world torn by conflict.

Through the eyes of our characters, viewers are offered a glimpse into the profound mysteries and revelations that Jerusalem holds, a city where past and future merge, and the promise of reconciliation, peace and redemption are within reach.

The fusion of the physical and spiritual world took place right here -- on the Foundation Stone.

And that’s where our movie begins...

 

The Movie that Everyone Must See

With the pulse-pounding suspense of a thriller and the depth of a historical epic, The Jerusalem Stone weaves a tale of adventure, intrigue, and revelation. It's a cinematic journey that confirms the value of faith.

As the story unfolds, it challenges viewers to reconsider what defines right and wrong and the true meaning of belonging and purpose in an ever-changing world.

This film depicts the story of a diverse group of college friends — Jewish, Christian and Muslim — whose search for identity and belonging leads them to the ancient streets of Jerusalem.

In the heart of Jerusalem, a city steeped in history and mystery, they embark on a journey that transcends the bounds of friendship, faith, and the search for identity.

Each carrying the weight of their ancestors' legacies and the modern clash of cultures, they find themselves drawn to the ancient and enigmatic Foundation Stone at the crossroads of the divine and the earthly, shrouded in legends and whispered secrets. 

The Temple Mount and its Foundation Stone - the sacred site, where Adam was created, Abraham demonstrated his faith and love for God, and Jacob dreamed of angels, becomes the catalyst for their awakening.  This revelation propels them into the heart of a shadowy conspiracy that has shielded humanity from a profound truth for millennia.

Navigating through the labyrinthine alleys of Jerusalem, their quest for understanding pitches them against a covert society that has manipulated historical events and religious beliefs to maintain a divisive status quo.

With the balance of power at stake, their discovery threatens to unravel the fabric of society, challenging the prevailing "woke" counterculture and its influence on their generation's worldview.

As the trio confronts this enigma, their friendship is strained to its limits, forcing them to confront their deepest beliefs and fears. The societal tensions and age-old conflicts that simmer beneath the surface of their diverse backgrounds come to the forefront, testing their bond and their resolve.

Caught in a web of danger, betrayal, and revelation, they must make choices that will define not only their futures but also the fate of humanity. The path ahead is fraught with peril, but it is also the only way to uncover the light hidden within the darkness—a truth so powerful it could change the world or destroy it.

The Jerusalem Stone is not just a movie; it's a divine invitation to witness the fulfillment of God's promises. And you can be a part of that history making reality. 

Spiritual Heritage: As believers in God, our connection to Israel is not just historical; it's spiritual. This film celebrates the covenant between God and His people, exploring the shared spiritual lineage of all people of faith. Through the lens of The Jerusalem Stone, viewers are invited to rediscover this sacred bond and stand in solidarity with Israel, the land promised by God.

Prayer for Peace: In a world torn by strife, The Jerusalem Stone echoes the biblical call to "pray for the peace of Jerusalem". This film inspires a global prayer movement, inviting people everywhere to intercede for peace in Jerusalem and the wider region, fulfilling a crucial role in God's plan for humanity.

Fulfillment of Prophecy: Witness the unfolding of biblical prophecy in our time. The Jerusalem Stone highlights how current events in Israel are not just news stories; they are the visible signs of God's ongoing narrative, inviting us to be part of this prophetic journey.

Advocacy and Education: This film is a call to action for people of faith to educate themselves and advocate for Israel's right to exist and thrive amidst the challenges it faces. The Jerusalem Stone provides a comprehensive understanding of Israel's geopolitical realities, empowering viewers to become informed ambassadors for peace and truth.

End of Days Awareness: This film offers a glimpse into how Israel's current events align with biblical prophecies about the end of days. The Jerusalem Stone invites viewers to reflect on the signs of the times and the role of believers in God's master plan.

Who We Are

Rick is an n award-winning film producer with a deep love for Israel, and Michael Gerbitz, a visionary dedicated to sharing Israel's miraculous story,

Rick Magder has been producing and directing television, feature films and documentaries for close to 30 years. His love for Israel and desire to create a premier film for the Jewish people and the entire world brought him to this most meaningful point in his career.

Rick and his family founded Magder Entertainment, the largest independent production studio in Canada and home to many television and feature productions, including “Stanley and Iris” starring Jane Fonda and Robert DeNiro, “The Freshman” starring Marlon Brando and Mathew Broderick, “Suspect” starring Cher and Dennis Quaid, Second City Television and much more.

Some of his projects include Mikhail Barishnikov's “Stories from My Childhood,” starring Sarah Jessica Parker, Rob Lowe, Shirley Maclaine, and Gene Hackman and the award winning “Home Safe” starring Martin Short and distributed by Disney.  

Rick's documentary work led him to interview political figures such as President Carter, President Ford, Hillary Clinton, Daniel Patrick Moynihan, Ted Kennedy and Jean Kirkpatrick, just to name a few. Most recently he spearheaded a film project to help teens around the country understand and combat hate.

Michael Gerbitz's dedication and passion for Israel combined with a successful business career focused on marketing and technology empowered his dream to bring these elements together and create something unique and powerful for Israel.

In 2011, Michael founded United with Israel (UWI), an organization that's become of the world's largest pro-Israel movements, with more than 10 million followers in over 180 countries. Its mission is to defend the truth about Israel and share the miracles of Israel with the entire world. UWI raises millions of dollars to support vital causes throughout the country. 

Michael is also the founder and CEO of World Israel News, a breaking news site and advertising network, reaching millions who want to know what is really happening in Israel.

The Israel Boutique, a website offering unique, cause-driven products whose proceeds benefit Israeli charities, was created by Michael over 10 years ago and continues to serve as a meaningful way for Israeli supporters abroad to bring a piece of Israel into their homes.  

We Need Your Help

  • Our goal is to raise $650,000.  This will allow us to complete the production of the film and initiate its distribution. A portion of the film's proceeds will be donated to support Israeli victims of war and terror.
  • By supporting this project, YOU will be part of this film forever.  Your name will appear in the credits, and the world will see that you did something extraordinary.

Risks & Challenges

Rick and Michael have a history of successfully raising funds for projects they value. Should this campaign not raise all the funds needed, additional funding will be secured from traditional distribution sources.  Funding from outside sources can lead to shared creative control of the production, which is something we are hoping to avoid.
