The documentary "Jesus Camp" followed three kids during their stay at a Christian evangelical summer camp called Kids on Fire. The film inspired much debate among religious and secular folk alike. And some of it was very serious. Camp Director and Chief Pastor Becky Fisher decided to close the camp this summer because of the negative reaction that's been sparked by the film. After the movie opened near Devil's Lake, N.D., the campsite was vandalized and Fisher received threats. Barbara Bogaev talks to Fisher about camp, the film and the future of Kids on Fire.
