Dr. Gillen Lane (Van Dien) is a famous motivational speaker and New Age guru who unknowingly becomes a pawn in the game of Stone Alexander (York), a corrupt businessman whose goal it is to control the world. By unraveling a numerical code hidden within the bible, Alexander attempts to do just that.
