Эван Бакстер, которого всемогущий босс Брюс заставил лепетать всякую чушь во время прямого эфира новостей, уходит с работы на телевидении. Но жизнь его сразу же пошла в гору: он стал конгрессменом. И тут вновь появился Господь Бог, который открыл перед Эваном ужасы грядущего и попросил срочно приступить к строительству ковчега, беря пример с Ноя.
Neoeletto al Congresso per lo Stato di New York, Evan si è lasciato alle spalle Buffalo per portare sua moglie Joan e i suoi tre figli a Huntsville, una piccola città di provincia in Virginia, dove ha inizio un nuovo capitolo della loro esistenza. Animato da una spiritualità piuttosto superficiale, Evan rivolge a Dio la preghiera di riuscire a cambiare il mondo, senza sapere che il Grande Uomo lassù ha già fatto dei piani ambiziosi e ben precisi per lui: deve costruire un'arca per salvare amici e conoscenti da un imminente catastrofico diluvio.
Newly elected to United States Congress, former local television news reporter Evan Baxter (Steve Carell) leaves his hometown of Buffalo, New York and later moves to the fictional community of Prestige Crest, Virginia, where his congressional campaign officially declares that he will change the world. Evan prays to God in Christianity (Morgan Freeman) to give him this opportunity. His wife, Joan (Lauren Graham), also prays that she, Evan and their three sons Dylan (Johnny Simmons), Jordan (Graham Phillips (actor)) and Ryan (Jimmy Bennett) will be closer together as a family. On his first day, Evan receives a letter from his greedy boss, Congressman Chuck Long (John Goodman), who provides him with a prime office and the opportunity to join Long as the junior co-sponsor to his Citizens' Integration of Public Lands Act (CINPLAN) bill. Over the next several days, strange events in Evan's life occur:
Evan Baxter consegue uma cadeira no Congresso e se muda para Washington com a família. Mas, quando tudo estava indo bem, ele recebe uma ordem de Deus para construir uma arca como a de Noé.
