Joel's Army

Joel's Army is a fringe Evangelical Christian organization that believes that the United States and the entire world should be governed under a strict theocratic doctrine that closely and literally follows the bible. Members of Joel's Army believe that the end times described in the New Testament are at hand and view themselves as a literal army ready to fight for their beliefs.¹ Blogger "Dogemperor" on the site Daily Kos alleges that Vice Presidential Candidate Sarah Pallin's church in Alaska has ties to the Joel's Army movement.²
