‘Open the  Bible’ launch

A new drive to increase the evangelistic resources available for local churches in the UK has begun with the official launch of the UK branch of Open the Bible. The launch, on 1 March, coincided with its new website which went live the same day.

Open the Bible UK is an extension of Colin Smith’s teaching ministry. Smith – a Scot – is senior pastor at The Orchard Evangelical Free Church in the suburbs of Chicago and founder and teaching pastor of Open the Bible (formerly Unlocking the Bible). Before serving in Chicago, he was a pastor in England.

John Martin, executive director of Open the Bible UK and a former pastor, will be adapting and expanding Open the Bible (USA)’s resources for the UK audience. The first wave of resources is already on the website, including daily devotionals and a new Easter devotional, ‘Six Hours That Changed The World’.
