How the Bible’s Songbook Can Shape Worship and Witness in Aotearoa Dates: 17-19 July 2024 Venue: Waipuna Hotel and Conference Centre Price: $295 + GST In July 2024, Carey Baptist College will host a three-day conference exploring how the Psalms can inspire Christian worship and shape God’s people here in Aotearoa. The conference will gather a range of Christian leaders including students, pastors, worship leaders, scholars and creatives to explore the Bible’s songbook and prayerbook. Through academic lectures, communal worship, and workshops for songwriters, pastors, and Christian leaders, we will imagine how the Psalms might catalyse new worship expressions sung and prayed in the mother tongues and heart expressions of the people of Aotearoa. Participants will worship together, write new Psalm-inspired songs together, and learn together how the Psalms might transform the church’s preaching, teaching, pastoral care, and discipleship.
