Update From Israel: Glenn Sends Special Message From Garden Tomb

In a special message from the historic Garden Tomb in Jerusalem, Glenn Beck gave his fans a little more information about why he's there. And while he did not reveal anything concrete, he did say that he and his team are "planning on something that we will talk to you about soon."

In the intimate video, a contemplative Beck explained that we are all on the cusp of something big:

"The world has an historic opportunity, before the madness begins, before things get out of control, before the world decides to move in one direction. I thought it was for me personally important and I think for the whole world to take a look at themselves an what they believe and what they know to be true and where we're headed. Times of courage and compassion are needed. And the best things is, is that I know that's who Americans are. We've always been home of the brave, but also a people of great and tremendous compassion."

"This can be our day," he added, a day "that we again lead the world into light as opposed to darkness."

"Join us on a journey here in  the next couple months that will take you to places that you can only imagine."
