4th February to 17th March 2024
We begin 2024 with the encouragement to keep Learning to live like Jesus in Hobart and put plans in place to keep learning and growing.
For us today in Hobart, this is not just a Sunday thing, but a whole of life — a 7-days-a-week, 24-hours-a-day, undertaking. Every area of our lives, our family, school, work and even our alone time, is impacted by our commitment to be disciples of Jesus.
31st December 2023 to 28th January 2024
The book of Psalms is a treasury of poetry and song. They are deeply precious to many people.
This summer we are going to hear from some of our community on the Psalms that are meaningful to them.
Together we will celebrate the beauty, honesty and rawness of the Psalms.
Sundays 17th and 24th December, and Christmas Day (9:30am)
December is often referred to as ‘the silly season’ because it is a time when our lives often become very full. We find ourselves very busy with finishing work projects, completing courses, planning family events and buying Christmas gifts for our loved ones.
In all of the business of the season an important question to ask is; have we made December so full that there is no longer room for Jesus in Christmas?
So, we are asking the question; is there room for Jesus in Christmas?
How do we shape our lives so that we are not losing sight of the reason for the season? And what does life look like when we make space for Jesus and put him at the centre of Christmas?
In 2024 we will see generational change at Hobart Baptist Church in terms of our governance. We are presented with exciting opportunities by this cultural moment we find ourselves in and by what has already started. We are not at the beginning of the journey, instead we are already on our way.
With guest speaker Rev. Karen Wilson
After being the keynote speaker at the EmpowHer Day of Courage on Sat 18th November, Karen will travel to Hobart to share her thoughts with us.
Karen will bring a message based on the story of Elisha and his servant from 2 Kings 6 titled “Seeing Differently“. Sometimes what is right in front of us needs to be looked at in a different way. It can make all the difference.
