Learning to Live Like Jesus in Hobart

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.
