Fly Through the Bible with Pastor Colin Smith in Des Moines

Join Pastor Colin Smith for a unique in-person event where he will take you through the entire Bible story with precision, depth, and clarity … in less than two hours!

You’ll see how all of Scripture points to Jesus Christ, as Pastor Colin introduces you to the following:

  • 5 people from the Old Testament
  • 5 events in the life of Jesus
  • 5 gifts for every believer

Our prayer is that you will be inspired in your faith and be equipped with tools to help you open the Bible for yourself and with others. This is also a great opportunity to invite a family member, a friend, or a neighbor to ignite their love of the Bible.

Open the Bible is making this event FREE. In addition, everyone who attends will receive a copy of the book, Fly Through the Bible, written by Pastor Colin, a participant’s guide to use that evening, and assorted items from other ministry partners.
