In the hills of Appalachia, Pentecostal pastors Jamie Coots and Andrew Hamblin struggle to keep an over-100-year-old tradition alive: the practice of handling deadly snakes in church. Jamie and Andrew believe in a bible passage that suggests a poisonous snakebite will not harm them as long as they are anointed by God's power. If they don't practice the ritual of snake handling, they believe they are destined for hell. The pastors must frequently battle the law, a disapproving society, and even at times their own families to keep their way of life alive.
When a baneful copperhead snake bites a church congregant, pastor Andrew Hamblin is called in to pray for his recovery. With their snake supply dwindling, pastors Jamie Coots and Andrew Hamblin race to hunt and capture wild, venomous snakes before the reptiles go into winter hibernation.
