Invite Kelly Smith to Speak

Bring the message of The First Horseman to your group, in person.

Kelly Smith, author of The First Horseman

When I present this material to a room full of people who have their scriptures open in front of them, what happens in that room is what happens every time. The subject does something to an audience that a book on its own cannot. People lean in. They stay afterward to talk. They open their scriptures again on the drive home.

If you run a group that would want to hear it, I'll come.

Fill out the form below and I'll get back to you myself.

How It Works

A typical event is about 90 minutes, followed by a Q&A session for as long as people want to stay. I sign books afterward and I don't leave until the room clears.

Here's what I ask of a host, and what I don't.

I don't charge a speaking fee. My costs are travel and lodging, plus an honorarium for the engagement that we work out together based on your group and your location. I bring the message. You cover the trip and my time. We settle the details privately once you reach out, because a small living-room gathering and a large conference are not the same event and shouldn't carry the same number.

To host a presentation, I ask that you order at least 30 copies of the book ahead of the event. They're yours to hand out to your group or to sell at the door, whichever you prefer. You can order them from Books.by/Kelly-Smith. Order 30 or more and I'll send you a code for $5 off each copy. Plan ahead, because printing and shipping take about two weeks and I need at least a month's notice to book an event anyway.

You're welcome to sell books at your event. If you provide the copies for me to sign, you sell them at the $25 retail price and keep the difference on each one. If I bring the books myself, there's no commission.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it cost to have you speak?

Travel and lodging, plus an honorarium for the engagement. There's no set speaking fee. We work out the honorarium privately based on your group's size and where you are, so reach out through the form and I'll send you the details.

What do you speak about?

The subject of my book, The First Horseman, Donald Trump and Biblical Prophecy. I walk an audience through the seven seals, the sixth seal of Revelation, and what the Joseph Smith Translation reveals about the last days. I present it the way I'd study it with you, scriptures open, one point building on the next.

How long is a presentation?

About 90 minutes, with a Q&A session afterward.

What size group do you speak to?

The minimum is 30 attendees. There's no maximum. The material works in a living room and it works in a hall.

How far will you travel?

Anywhere in the United States, as long as travel and lodging are covered.

Do you speak to groups that aren't Latter-day Saint?

Yes. I'll present this to any group interested in the subject, whether you're Latter-day Saint, Bible-believing Christian, a constitutional or liberty group, an American history group, or anything similar. I reserve the right to decline any invitation that doesn't align with the purpose of this work.

Do you do virtual events?

Yes, I'll present over Zoom. I prefer in-person events because the interaction and involvement are so much better, but a virtual event is a good option when travel isn't practical.

Can we sell your books at our event?

Yes. See "How It Works" above for the arrangement.

If people buy the digital ebook or audiobook, does the host earn anything?

No. The commission arrangement applies only to signed print copies sold at your event.

How far ahead do we need to book?

At least one month. That gives us time to arrange travel and gives you time to receive your books, which take about two weeks to arrive.

Is this affiliated with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints?

No. This is my personal scriptural study, not official Church doctrine. I always encourage people to study the scriptures for themselves and counsel with their own leaders.
