Hillsong

Apologies for the late post and rushed thoughts…
On Sunday, a friend and I went to visit Hillsong church in Norwest. I’m no advocate for Hillsong but there were some interesting things I learned while observing in their evening service that I feel that we could glean from.
One thing I observed was the amount of organisation [...]

NBF Adelaide: Thursday Evening

Thursday evening was quite interesting and it was almost saddening to have the meetings come to a close. The fellowship was sweet and the car ride home exhausting, but overall it was a great experience. Thursday evening was just the main speaker James Alley.
Final Session: James Alley preached from Mark 14 with a sermon entitled [...]

NBF Adelaide: Thursday Morning

The last day of a conference is always good because you can come late and still get a good seat—everyone else has slept in and is coming in late as well!
The morning started out with missionary Rob Booy who spoke with a refreshing reverence for the task of preaching. He spoke from 1 Samuel 13ff [...]

NBF Adelaide: Wednesday Evening

It’s Alen again :) I do apologize about the lateness of these blog posts, but here they are for the Wednesday evening service!
In the evening there was 2 speakers, Missionary David Crowe and main speaker James Alley.
Session One: David Crowe preached from II Chronicles 18. He preached on the life of King Jehoshaphat and how [...]

NBF Adelaide: Wednesday Morning

Roger Monosmith spoke for the first session. I ended up missing the second session. The third session was a split session. I’m told the men’s session with Buddy Smith was a profitable message on the idols of the heart. Chris Hustler spoke to the youth.
The evenings sessions were excellent, but I’ll let Alen give you [...]

NBF Adelaide: Tuesday Evening

Alen and I are taking turns on this thing so tonight is my turn. This afternoon we ended up back at our lodging doing the usual solve-all-the-problems-of-the-world-in-a-single-sitting thing. One of the guys may have slept through most of it. (!)
In spite of a large crowd and a fairly late arrival we managed to get fairly [...]

NBF Adelaide: Tuesday Morning

Hey everyone! We’ll be reporting again on the NBF this year down in Adelaide. The drive down was intense and long, but well worth it. This is my first time to Adelaide so it is kind of exciting. Our venue is quite splendid. The church is quite amazing from an architectural point of view.
This morning [...]

Blogging the NBF… Once Again

It’s that time of year again. I’m heading out tomorrow morning for my annual pilgrimmage to wherever the NBF (National Baptist Fellowship) happens to be—Adelaide in this case. I’ve been out of town a bit and generally just busier than I should be so that’s why things have been a bit quiet here.
Once again we’re [...]

AFBC Bible Conference 2008: Thursday Night

AFBC 2008: Pentecost Power
The evening started off with the Mayo family doing an item. They sang “This is The Day the Lord Hath Made” which was quite beautifully done. We then sang through several songs before the Kwok brothers did their special (Ben Kwok the Pastor of Rouse Hill Church, Mike Kwok [...]

AFBC Bible Conference 2008: Wednesday Night

AFBC 2008: What’s right with the Church?
The evening started out with some singing and then moved onto a special by the Faith Baptist choir. They sung “Who Can Satisfy My Soul” which was very well done. After Alan Webb, the guest speaker, was introduced another special item was performed by Sarah from [...]

Live Blogging the Annual AFBC Conference

This week, Wednesday to Friday, is the annual Australian Fellowship of Bible-Believing Churches Bible Conference in Sydney. I felt that it would be good for us to be aware of what’s going on there this week so I’m excited that Alen Basic has agreed to live blog the conference for us!

Live Blogging the NBF – Thursday Evening

Well, this is our last entry on our live blogging of the NBF. We look forward to next year, when the NBF will God willing be held in Adelaide at South West Baptist Church. The time really seems to go fast. Which Pastor Hester preached on from Psalm 90. He did an expository message on [...]
