Jerusalem: The Gateway to God November 22, 2013
All three Abrahamic faiths call Jerusalem the closest city to God. Muslims go to the the Dome of the Rock to celebrate Muhammad's ascension. Christians travel to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre to honor the resurrection of Jesus. And Jews leave prayers inside the cracks of the Western Wall, the closest structure to to the ancient Temple. A new film explores what Jerusalem means to each group through the eyes of three young Jerusalemites.
