The Empires
Daniel named Babylon, Persia, Greece and Rome centuries before they rose, then described the divided Europe that came after. We read the text, then check it against the history.
Nights 1–3Every night at 6:30 PM · through October 31
Babylon, Persia, Greece, Rome, written down centuries before most of them existed. Dustin Pestlin is going through Daniel and Revelation every night at 6:30, and each night covers a new topic, so you can start any evening. It's free, and it runs through October 31.

What the series is about and why he is bringing it to Little Rock, in his own words.
What We Cover
The nights run in order through Daniel and Revelation, starting with the empires Daniel saw coming and ending with what he says is still ahead. You can walk in on any one of them and follow along.
Daniel named Babylon, Persia, Greece and Rome centuries before they rose, then described the divided Europe that came after. We read the text, then check it against the history.
Nights 1–3What God's law still has to do with you, and why one commandment starts with the word "Remember." Then the documented history of how the day of worship got changed.
Nights 4–6What actually happens when someone dies. What the Bible says about hell, which is probably not what you were told. And what the thousand years and heaven look like.
Nights 7–11The beast, 666, the mark, and the seal of God, identified from the text and the historical record. Then Revelation's final call to come out of Babylon, on night nineteen.
Nights 12–20Night 1 · Friday, October 9
Nebuchadnezzar dreamed of a statue built from four metals, and Daniel told him each one was a kingdom still to come. Scroll to follow it through the history.

"The kingdom shall be divided... they shall not cleave one to another." — Daniel 2:41-43
"It shall break in pieces all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever." — Daniel 2:44

Meet the Speaker
Dustin has spent years teaching Bible prophecy to people who assumed it wasn't for them.
He has sat through the meetings that try to scare people into a seat, and he didn't like them either. His deal is simpler. He opens the Bible, puts the text and the history side by side, shows his work, and lets you argue with him. If it doesn't hold up, walk out. He means that.
“Bring a friend, bring your questions, bring your skepticism. I like skeptics.”

Planning Your Visit
Here is exactly what happens, so there are no surprises.
The Venue
No. Each presentation stands on its own, so you can walk in on any night and follow along. They do run in order, so if you catch one you'll probably want the next.
Yes. Every seat, every night, at no cost. There is nothing to buy and no offering appeal during the presentations.
Not at all. Most people who attend have never studied prophecy before. Everything is explained from the ground up, and a Bible is provided if you don't bring one.
Come as you are. You'll see everything from suits to jeans, and nobody is counting.
Reserving lets us plan seating and send you the schedule and directions ahead of time. You can still walk in without it.
Yes. There is a fun kids' program for ages 5 to 9 every night of the series.
Please do. Choose the number of seats when you register so we can seat your group together.
For Families
Every night, kids ages 5 to 9 have their own fun program.
Bring them along. Like everything else in the series, it's free.
