He looks like Jesus Christ. And preaches like St.
Francis of Assisi. Some say he’s “a kook.” Others, “a
blessing from God.” Barefoot, and clad in a white robe,
he’s walked through 47 states and 13 countries on a
16-year mission that’s captured media attention from
20/20, Time, and the Wall Street Journal.
Yet who is this solitary figure who inspires faith – and
attracts controversy?
THE JESUS GUY covers the mystical journey of
America’s “Barefoot Evangelist.” In a nation that
worships money, he’s penniless. In a culture that
idolizes celebrities, he’s forsaken his identity. Now,
on a spiritual quest even he doesn’t fully understand,
his faith – and your own – will be tested every step of
the way. With the intimacy of single-camera filmmaking,
director Sean Tracey allows us to walk in “the Jesus
Guy’s” steps as he encounters both skeptics and
believers, changing them…for better, for worse, forever.
