5,000 believers gathered from more than 200 nations last month in South Korea.

It is 50 years since Billy Graham and John Stott first launched the Lausanne movement in Switzerland.

Anglican Bishop of North Sydney Chris Edwards has described the congress as like an all you can eat buffet - where some parts tasted amazing / fantastic and I kept wanting more and yet other parts even a mouthful made me feel nauseous.

Principal of Sydney’s Moore Theological College Mark Thompson says there were some great highlights including a presentation by Vaughan Roberts on sexuality but also areas of concern.

Rob Smith: The sexed body reveals and determines the gendered self 35:25

hace 6 días35:25

35:25

As pastors we’re expressing leadership in our churches on gender and sexuality. We want to help our people think biblically - and yet with the culture moving so fast - it is an area that we feel ill equipped. On today’s Pastor’s Heart we benefit from the hard work of Sydney Missionary and Bible College Theology and Ethics lecturer Rob Smith who has just published a reworked version of his PhD under the title ‘The body God gives.’ As transgender visibility reaches new heights, we explore its historical and philosophical roots, noting the pivotal cultural shifts since the "Transgender Tipping Point" in 2013. We outline the biblical stance on the sex and gender binary while engaging with contemporary philosophical debates. We dissect the relationship between second-wave feminism and the transgender movement. Our discussion ventures into the diverse theories surrounding sex and gender, distinguishing between non-trans, soft trans, hard trans, and queer perspectives.

Craig Hamilton: Exploding pastoral leadership myths! 32:58

hace 13 días32:58

What happens when a leader operates without a clear vision. And how poetic or concrete should a vision be? How to organise things so the overall vision cascades down through every area of church life? What should our pastoral approach be to innovators, early adopters, early majority, late majority, laggards and the nos. Biblical vision and Leadership vision: What is the difference? Why do people mangle Proverbs 29:18? Plus infusing the church with vision, in a significant moment and especially via drip feed.

Hans Kristensen: Ten archaeological facts to increase confidence in the Old Testament 35:55

hace 20 días35:55

35:55

There are claims - and you hear them every so often - that archeology has disproved this story or that in the bible, and claims from this or that scholar of particularly late dating of different bible books. How do we as evangelical pastors react/respond/answer those claims? Hans Kristensen is senior pastor of Marsfield Community Church in Sydney and is studying ancient archaeology. He suggests that there are 10 major archaelogical finds that help us to increase our confidence in the Old Testament: There’s evidence of a big population jump in Caanan at exactly the time that the bible said that Yahweh was giving Israel the land, called the ‘Hill Country Explosion.’ The Egyptian Pharaoh Merneptah boasts of raiding the land of Caanan, saying it was occupied by Israel. In the city of Hazor, archaeologists have found religious idols destroyed and other items intact, just as expected from Joshua 11-12 The recently discovered altar at Mount Ebal is likely Joshua’s altar (Joshua 8) In the Tel Dan inscription we now have archeological evidence for King David’s existence. There’s consistent architectural town planning in the cities built around the time of David and Solomon - pointing towards planning and control under one ruler (eg a King). There are similarities between what we know of the temple of Solomon and a similar temple built at Ain Dara, about 30 kilometres from Beirut, showing Solomon’s temple fits into the religious and architectural landscape of the time. The discovery of six massive chambered gates at Hazor, Meggido and Gezer and other architectural discoveries at those sites corresponds with 1Kings 9:15. A ninth century battle account from King Moab of Mersha mirrors the one in 2 Kings 3. The Biblical chronology of the listed kings matches almost exactly with archeological evidence.

Paul Grimmond: How godliness differs for men and women and how to teach it! 35:14

hace 27 días35:14

35:14

How does godliness play out differently if I am a man, a woman, a young man, a young woman, a husband or a wife? All Christians are called to live like Christ. Why does the Apostle Paul choose to write about what godliness looks like for the older and younger and for us as men and women, rather than more generally for us as people? Does our age and sex have implications for the challenges we face in living for Jesus? Are these things just human constructs or elements of divine gift? And what implications does this have for how we think about discipleship and our lived experience of complementarian ministry? Paul Grimmond is a senior lecturer at Sydney’s Moore Theological College. Paul gave the keynote address at the Priscilla and Aquila conference.

Gary Millar: Godliness vs Effectiveness - the Both/And Dilemma 34:08

Godliness vs Effectiveness - the Both/And Ministry dilemma Godliness vs Effectiveness Theology vs Pragmatics People centered vs Organisationally minded Leading from the front vs Serving others Courage to take a stand vs Quick to submit Others know I am one of them vs I am set apart to lead I lead patiently vs I lead with a sense of urgency Most Christians at some point do start to wonder if they are the real deal. What God asks of us is so far reaching, so all encompassing, that when we come up short, we start to ask ourselves “Am I an imposter?” “Should I really be a leader?” and perhaps/Am even a Christian at all?’ Gary Millar is the Principal of Queensland’s Theological College and author of a new book ‘Both/And Ministry.’ Anglican Aid To find out more about how to support Anglican Aid go to http://www.anglicanaid.org.au/tph Reach Australia National Conference Reach Australia’s National Conference is happening from 19 to 22 May 2025 on the Central Coast of NSW.

What is the work of the Lord? What is in vain if the resurrection is not true? What truly lasts and what does gospel work looks like in our daily lives? The debate over eschatology and one’s view of the new heavens and new earth. Will there be a Sydney Harbour Bridge in the new creation? And in the meantime, what should be our priorities? William Taylor is the rector of St Helens Church in London, where he is engaged in ministry to city workers. He has written the book ‘Revolutionary Work’ to address these issues.

Indigenous Australians and the Christian Gospel - with Michael Duckett 30:00

Indigenous Australians and the Christian Gospel - with Michael Duckett As we approach ‘Aboriginal Sunday’ (19 January) we focus on the progress of the gospel among the indigenous in Australia. What are the cultural changes and what openness to Jesus Christ among Indigenous Australians? Where are we seeing growth? What are the roadblocks and opportunities for the growth of the gospel among the indigenous communities? How much has to do with the soil. How much has to do with things that we can change? Michael Duckett leads the Anglican Indigenous Ministry at Macarthur/Campbelltown in the far south west of Sydney and Chairs the Sydney Anglican Indigenous Ministry Committee. Aboriginal Sunday In 1938 the aboriginal leader William Cooper called on the churches of Australia to mark what he called ‘Aborigines Sunday’ on the Sunday before Australia Day. He ‘requested sermons be preached on this day dealing with the Aboriginal people and their need of the gospel and response to it and we ask that special prayer be invoked for all missionary and other effort for the uplift of the dark people.’ Anglican Aid To find out more about how to support Anglican Aid go to http://www.anglicanaid.org.au/tph Reach Australia National Conference Reach Australia’s National Conference is happening from 19 to 22 May 2025 on the Central Coast of NSW.

How should we guide our congregations in thinking ethically about engagement in Bitcoin? What is Bitcoin? How do we as Christian leaders assess the morality of bitcoin? Proponents say that it’s design fosters transparency and fairness and promotes economic justice. Critics highlight its speculative risks and potential for illegal use.

Same words, different worlds: Reaching Roman Catholics - with Leonardo De Chirico and Rachel Ciano 33:26

hace 10 weeks33:26

33:26

Most of us evangelical pastors, theological colleges, indeed the whole of evangelicalism - we have a blind spot when it comes to Roman Catholicism in our theology, missiology and practice. Where do we as Evangelicals make mistakes in our engagement with the Roman Catholic world? What can we change? What should we change? How do we best see our Roman Catholic friends come to a personal saving relationship with Jesus Christ? Leonardo De Chirico has been at the forefront of theological education of evangelicals in this space internationally for over a decade. Leonardo is a church planter, pastor in Rome, and Director of the Reformanda Initiative. Rachel Ciano is the Dean of Academic Development at Mary Andrew's College, Sydney.

William Taylor: What to do when the denomination around you is imploding? 36:24

hace 11 weeks36:24

36:24

It is difficult times in the Church of England. Having previously publicly betrayed his ordination and consecration vows - the Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby - has now resigned over his handling of a safeguarding matter, following the release of the Makin report. The Church of England is tearing itself apart over sexuality. There are more apostate bishops than faithful bishops in the English House of Bishops. And there is now a massive group within the Church of England called The Alliance, representing 42% of the denomination’s attendance, basically pleading to the house of bishops to repent. William Taylor has served since 1998 as the senior pastor of St Helen’s London. Taylor is paralleling the difficult times faced by Evangelicals today to those faced by the Apostle Paul at the time of writing the pastorals.

More pressure on government over chronic gambling - with Stu Cameron 31:50

hace 12 weeks31:50

Church Leaders have welcomed the report of the trial of cashless gambling which recommends that ‘account based gambling’ be introduced in New South Wales by 2028. There are bigger problems with gambling in Sydney and New South Wales than pretty much anywhere in the world (outside Las Vegas). But the Clubs and Hotels industry is running a narrative attempting to discredit the trial, calling it a three million dollar waste of money. Senior Minister of Sydney’s Wesley Mission Stu Cameron was the church representative on the inquiry panel and says while the outcome is welcome, it’s now up to the government, ‘the devil will be in the details’ and we need to keep the pressure on.

Are churches losing global mission focus? + How to fix this! - with Tim Silberman 31:09

hace 13 weeks31:09

31:09

Is the church losing its global mission focus? The number of overseas missionaries being sent out is down on ten years ago. Church and mission leaders have encouraged Christians to respond to the need for mission locally, especially as church decline accelerates. Yet there’s a growing concern that global mission involvement is being neglected in many local churches. Sydney Missionary and Bible College Lecturer Tim Silberman has just completed a study on practices and perspectives on mission among evangelical churches in Australia. Tim says for mission to prosper, churches need to have strong relationships with overseas mission partners, and this will help the gospel globally and our local mission work.
