This is more than an event. It is a divine opportunity to build vital connections, be refreshed in His presence, and experience the joy of doing life and ministry together. YOU DO NOT want to miss it.

If you have attended before, you already KNOW that Open Bible East makes a significant investment into every person who comes. This is intentional. This is relational. This is kingdom.

Come expecting to be strengthened, encouraged, and renewed… because “those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles…” (Isaiah 40:31).

We are better together, and this is a moment you will not want to miss.

*As this is an Open Bible East regional-sponsored event, churches should cover the costs for their pastors.

Dinner Show:

We will be doing a DINNER SHOW together. During the first half of the evening, while you enjoy a delicious dinner, you’ll be treated to a live gospel/praise & worship concert showcasing a variety of Christian musical genres, including Southern Gospel, Hymns, Contemporary, and Praise & Worship interjected with humor, comedy bits, testimonials, faith-fueled fun. In the second half, you’ll experience the story of the Prodigal Son, and the lessons of redemption and forgiveness that comes with the relationships we all have with our loved ones, and the strength we can find in Christ to treat each other with the same grace he treats us. You’ll see this and more like never before through cutting-edge holographic technology, acting, and song in our musical theatrical production, The Prodigal: A Story of Hope and Redemption! This show utilizes our innovative holographic and projection technology to transport you back in time, fully immersing you in sets and settings that haven’t been seen since biblical times! Both halves feature this incredible technology along with vocalists, and actors/actresses the Tabb Family TFM Worship!
