I don't mean to defend silly theological liberals, but it is a fact that the most conservative of Episcopalian/Anglicans, as well as Presbyterians have a diametrically different interpretation of the End Times as that found Left Behind or popular fundamentalist (Baptist/Bible/Pentecostal/independent) churches (which actually do spend a lot of time on their version, by the way).

Eschatology is one of the big dividing points between dispensational and classical (covenant) protestant theology, a church be evangelical or not.

Jesus is (literally) coming, and will resurrect the dead--this is what we agree with in all (real) conservative Christian circles.

Conservative Lutherans, the conservative Reformed churches, and Wesleyan churches, such as the Nazarenes and conservative Methodists, tend to be amillenial as well in eschatology. The rising Calvinist tendency among the Southern Baptists is heavily amillenial as well. Theonomists, who are mostly conservative Presbyterians, are postmillenial.
