In this powerful conversation, Will Small sits down with Andrew Dodd and Scott Higgins from Hamilton Baptist Church following their historic disaffiliation from the NSW/ACT Baptist Association after 99 years of membership (the first time this has happened in the 150+ year history of the Association).After a six-year bureaucratic process, Hamilton Baptist and Canberra Baptist were formally removed from the Association for their affirming stance toward LGBTQ+ people. Andrew and Scott share the painful journey that led to this moment, the flawed process that never allowed for actual biblical discussion, and the surprising hope they've found in what they're calling "Day One" of a new chapter.In this episode:The six-year process that led to the disaffiliation voteHow real relationships with LGBTQ+ Christians transformed their theologyThe irony of a Baptist denomination refusing to discuss biblical interpretationThe powerful speeches Andrew and Scott delivered at the final assemblyThe emerging network of Open Baptists creating new possibilitiesLinks:Open Baptists websitePrevious Spiritual Misfits episodes with Hamilton Baptist (Part 1)Previous Spiritual Misfits episodes with Hamilton Baptist (Part 2)Previous Spiritual Misfits episode about the Open Baptists (with Christine Redwood, Belinda Groves and Nathan Nettleton)Want to reach out and let us know your thoughts or suggestions for the show?

After a scathing ruling from a Nevada probate commissioner, Rupert Murdoch and his eldest son Lachlan's attempt to amend a family trust may have backfired spectacularly, with the commissioner concluding the two acted in “bad faith”. Rupert was attempting to give permanent control of his conservative media empire, comprising Fox and News Corp, to his designated successor Lachlan after Rupert dies. The initial attempt to amend the trust was also kept secret from Lachlan's three eldest siblings – Prudence, Elisabeth and James – the other beneficiaries with equal voting rights on the trust. The ruling has deepened the divide within the family, and thrown the future of the Murdoch empire into question. Today, director of the Centre for Advancing Journalism at the University of Melbourne, Andrew Dodd on the ruling, the fallout and the next chapter in the Murdoch succession saga.

After spending 3 weeks overseas, we welcome Brother Tim Dodd in the studio at Cloverdale Bible Way for a conversation around Ethiopia. We had previously heard from Brother Moges and Andrew Dodd, but in this episode, we get Brother Tim's perspective on the meetings, and Ethiopia as a whole since the Lord started moving in that country supernaturally almost 9 years ago. We cover a lot of ground from the convention, to the ongoing support for translations and printing materials.

A couple weeks ago there was a very special convergence of communities at Hamilton Baptist Church. I know many of you have listened to the episodes with Andrew Dodd and Scott Higgins sharing their stories and the story of Hamilton. If you haven't listened yet add those to your up next. Anyway, Andrew invited me to come along to Hamilton and share some thoughts and poems. And Mitch Forbes and some of the New City Baps crew came along, as well as a few others from Meeting Ground church. So we ended up with a very special mix of people in the room, and honestly it was so lovely to meet a number of podcast listeners in person and to celebrate being a bit of a rag-tag group on the fringes of faith. Which can be a pretty fun place if you make it a party. Before the morning Andrew Dodd asked me if we could make this a ‘live' podcast episode. So that's what you're about to hear. Andrew's the host for this one. And there's a bit of variety. First, a conversation with Mitch Forbes. Then we hear from one of our listeners, Alison. Shout-out to you Alison. And then the bulk of the episode is a mix of Andrew interviewing me and me sharing some poems around evolving faith and LGBTQI+ inclusion.  This was a lot of fun and I hope you get the sense that you're in the room with us experiencing the energy of it. On that note, if you would be interested in hosting or collaborating on some sort of spiritual misfits meet-up or live gathering, hit us up. Who knows what could happen? 

Hello friends and welcome back to the Spiritual Misfits podcast,This episode is the second half of one extended conversation I had with Andrew Dodd and Scott Higgins. If you haven't listened to the previous episode where Scott and Andrew shared their own journeys towards inclusive theology and the story of Hamilton Baptist Church, I strongly recommend you do so.  In case you don't or if you need a recap, here's an outline of the story so far: Scott Higgins wrote a paper back in the 90s giving an overview of different Christian perspectives on sexuality. In many ways this was the beginning for him of coming to see theological diversity in this area. A few years down the track and he's asked to read a statement to his church affirming that Baptists hold to a traditional view of marriage. Scott couldn't bring himself to read it, but instead asked the church who would be interested in taking a few weeks to explore some diverse understandings of sexuality, marriage and Christian ethics. Every hand went up. As the church began to have these conversations a number of queer people were drawn to come along — and ended up staying in the church. The combination of fresh theological framing alongside real and loved members of their community played a key role in what was then Edgeworth Baptist becoming LGBTQI affirming.While this was happening there was also a conversation beginning with Hamilton Baptist Church where Andrew Dodd was the pastor. This conversation was about the two churches merging. This made sense for a lot of reasons, though Edgeworth had one non-negotiable. If the churches were going to merge, LGBTQI+ people needed to be fully included and embraced in the life of the new church. So the two churches went on a process together over around 12 months, testing the waters of their relationship so to speak, before officially deciding to proceed with the merge. At this point the vast majority of people were onboard. This doesn't mean it was without cost or difficulty and some people left, though this was generally done in a gracious way. At the end of the last episode Andrew shared the story of their first service together as a new church, and the powerful moment when communion was served by a queer member of the congregation. What was powerful wasn't so much this person sharing out communion. It was the fact that it didn't matter that this person was sharing out communion. Because they were welcome as much as anyone else. So, in this next part of the conversation I talked to Andrew and Scott about what they learned from this journey that might inform other churches.   There's another element of this story that's important. The change Andrew and Scott have led at Hamilton — is not one that everyone is ready for. And in Andrew's words Hamilton is now in a somewhat precarious position within the NSW Baptist denomination.So we talk a little about change, disagreement and how some of this sits within a larger system. This aspect of the conversation is not theoretical to Scott, Andrew and even myself. It is playing out in real-time. And in part, this is why I recorded this conversation. Maybe you're part of this tribe called Baptist. Or maybe you've left it behind. Maybe you're part of a different denomination, or organisation. Whatever the case, I believe listening to Scott and Andrew share there thoughts around this may be an important step in helping you to see things through a fresh lens. Here's the rest of our conversation. 

Here's a conversation that weaves together multiple threads into one really powerful story. It's a story about change and about the process of change — at an individual level as well as in a broader community.  Scott Higgins and Andrew Dodd are friends, pastors, and together help lead the community of Hamilton Baptist Church. This is their story of moving towards LGBTQI+ affirming theology. It's also a story of merging two churches into one. And it's the story of bringing those two Baptist churches through a process integrating theology, personal stories and pastoral sensitivity to become one church where everyone is genuinely welcomed and embraced, including those of diverse gender and sexualities.   Depending on where you listen from this might not seem like a big deal — but in terms of their state denominational context Scott and Andrew were kind of the first ones to do this. And going first always carries extra layers of risk and complexity.  Scott, Andrew and I spent a couple hours together discussing this story because there's so much to learn from it — and so, next week's episode is actually the continuation of this one. Essentially what you're about to listen to is primarily about the story of Scott, Andrew and Hamilton Baptist Church. The next episode zooms the lens out and asks how might this inform other contexts. But for this week let's start with the story. Join me, Scott and Andrew sitting at Andrew's table in Warabrook.
