There were held in Perth, Hobart and Toowoomba with Christian theologians and speakers, Greg Clarke (Perth) and John Dickson (Hobart and Toowoomba).
"In Hobart, over four hundred people packed the Stanley Burbury Theatre at the University of Tasmania to hear John Dickson answer the question, 'Can we trust the New Testament?' John clearly demonstrated that the Gospels are our best sources for understanding the historical Jesus," said Bible Society spokesperson, Mark Barry.
"He then answered some difficult questions with grace, passion, intelligence and humour. By all accounts, the night succeeded in its aim to help strengthen confidence in the New Testament for believers and unbelievers alike, and deepen their trust in the Jesus of its pages," Mark said.
The next morning John spoke at a Pastors' and Ministry Leaders Breakfast attended by thirty-seven pastors.
In Toowoomba, 340 people heard John speak at the Empire Theatre.
"We had great feedback after the event with attenders saying they were encouraged in their Christian faith," said Bible Society's Chris Melville, organiser of the 'Live Light in 25 Words' campaign.
At the Masterclass for Year 10 and 11 school leaders held in Brisbane, representatives from 14 schools from Gladstone, Toowoomba and Brisbane heard speakers John Dickson, Dr Justine Toh and Kaye Minnaar as they looked at topics such as 'Why Trust the Gospels', ' Love and Leadership' and 'The Great Commission'. Australian Magician Christopher Wayne, spoke about 'Using your Faith, talents and personal story' to connect with school peers.
In Perth, there was standing room only at the Murdoch Lecture Theatre at the University of Western Australia as Bible Society CEO, Greg Clarke, spoke on the topic.
The aim of the 'Live Light in 25 Words' campaign is to encourage Australian Christians to read the Bible every day for the month of October and turn that into the habit of a lifetime," said Bible Society's Chris Melville.
