Perhaps you sit in the pews wishing your church's preachers would get some help! A new preaching conference in Tasmania this April will be catering for all levels of preachers from the very experienced to novices. The one-day conference will feature keynote sessions from the Rev.

He is currently the Principal of Ridley Theological College in Melbourne, and the author of a number of books, including his classic on preaching, Speaking God's Words. Annual event The day will also feature six different workshops aimed at different levels of experience and led by Peter Adam and others. Topics include 'How people learn'; 'Passion in preaching'; How to handle the text'; 'How to write a sermon'; 'A Sunday message that changes Monday lives'.
