A story where prophecy unfolds across time ...
and faith is tested in every generation.
Experience Ascension After
on the big screen April 26th in Alexandria, VA.
What is Ascension After?
Ascension After is a faith-driven, anime-inspired story that follows John the Apostle and Darius Wayman, a modern-day teenager, as they witness the events of the Book of Revelation unfold from two different eras.
As prophecy, persecution, and global chaos collide, their journeys reveal a powerful truth about faith, perseverance, and the ultimate restoration of all things.
Available as a manga and animated series.
Why It Matters
Because this isn’t just a story about the end.... It’s a call to stand firm in faith when everything else falls apart.
Ascension After brings the message of Revelation to life in a way that feels real, relatable, and urgent; a reminder for this generation that God’s truth still speaks, even in the middle of chaos.
TWO STORIES. ONE REVELATION.
Darius Wayman
A modern-day teenager searching for purpose in a broken world. After a life-altering tragedy, Darius is forced to confront his doubts, identity, and beliefs as global chaos begins to unfold around him. His story reflects the struggle of this generation—and the question of what it truly means to believe.
John the Apostle
A faithful servant of Christ, living in exile on the island of Patmos. In the midst of persecution and isolation, John is entrusted with divine visions that reveal the end of all things—and the promise of restoration. His journey is one of obedience, endurance, and unwavering faith.
Two timelines. One truth. The same question remains—
will you stand firm?
