ABOUT THE FILM
William Miller’s faith is in ruins. After miraculously surviving a fierce battle in the War of 1812, Miller questions why God spared him. His search for wisdom leads to an astonishing prophesy— the world is going to end. The Hopeful unfolds as a story of a man burdened with the knowledge of Christ’s return. Miller’s message resonates with some—even as it is scorned by others. When a young woman named Ellen Harmon listens to one of his sermons she is transformed. And through her witness the message begins to take flight. The preaching grows beyond prophecy and develops into a more holistic vision for how Christians should live and worship. We see blossoming the seeds of a new global movement of faith —the Seventh-day Adventist Church. The Hopeful is the true story of a community whose lives were transformed as they learn what it means to truly wait for Jesus. This sweeping drama, set in 19th century New England, invites audiences of all ages to imagine how hope can change the world.

MY REVIEW
“The Hopeful,” taking place after the war of 1812, is a transformational story of faith and hope. It’s a story seen from different angles.
It’s easy to relate with many of these characters, inspired by real people and real events spawning the birth of the Seventh Day Adventist denomination. Though my Christian faith, beliefs, and practices are somewhat different from the SDA church—mainly on the concept of Salvation—I connected to their fortitude and devotion.
Some of the most influential people in this film are William Miller (a humble farmer and reluctant preacher) James White (a young Adventist pastor) and Ellen Harmon (a missionary with divine visions from God and co-founder of the SDA church.) Their fears, fortitude, and faith are what urges the slow and steady plot forward.
Ultimately, this film shares Christ’s hope and healing, and revels how we all must keep our eyes and hearts on the Word of God. This is an inspiring story of history, community, and faith that might spark both questions and responses from viewers of all ages.
