Brothers, we are excited for a new year of men's gatherings at Hinson! Our 2025 gatherings are on the topic of Authority based on the book by the same name by Jonathan Leeman.
Stephen Moody will teach on the authority of command. We'll have some Q&A time with him as well.
We're asking for $5 to help cover the cost for food and drink for all men who attend. We will have pulled pork bbq for the meal. If cost prohibits you from coming, don't let that stop you from joining us for food and fellowship! Just hit "Pay Later" when registering. You can also pay cash that night.
Please reach out to adavis@hinsonchurch.org if you have any questions!
Our Weekender immerses church leaders and seminarians in the life of Hinson Baptist Church over the course of a weekend. You'll get an up-close and personal experience with our services, congregational meeting, focused teaching on the church, plenty of Q&A, and even sit in an Elder Meeting. The point is not to replicate exactly what you see. In fact, we'd prefer you don't! But we do want to show you what we do and the biblical and pastoral reasoning behind it. We hope this creates meaningful relationships with other churches while building each other up. We would love you to join us. Bring yourselves and whatever questions you have. From leadership to worship to body life, it's all on the table!
We encourage pastors and church leaders to attend because, just as every Timothy needs a Paul, so every church needs a model. “Brethren, join in following my example, and observe those who walk according to the pattern you have in us. The things you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you” (Phil 3:17; 4:9). It helps to step out of the church we serve every day and into a new context for a few days.
You may not implement or even agree with every last thing you see during your visit, but having this biblical model can help develop a more directed movement in the way you serve and lead in your local body.
Then again, maybe you know where to go, but feel clueless about how to get there: “I know I want elders, but what do they do when they meet? I know I need to preach, but how do I go about preparing sermons week in and week out? I know the budget needs work, but I’m no accountant.” The goal of The 9Marks Weekender is to provide an environment in which leaders can observe and discuss the biblical and practical dynamics of nurturing love and holiness in a local church.
All are welcome to join us on Christmas Eve for a candle light service a short message.
We are so excited to be hosting a Family Worship Conference with Shai and Blair Linne here at Hinson on November 15th and 16th!
We all agree God deserves to be worshipped in our homes by our families but often struggle with the "why" and “how?” Where do we begin? Will this make a difference in our life and the lives of those we are called to love? How do we prioritize family worship when life seems so busy?
Join the Linnes, as they teach about what scripture says regarding the importance of family worship, and give practical steps to implement this practice into your home. The conference is a mix of teaching, singing, spoken word, and ends with a Q & A. They will share what this looks like in their home, and spur you on towards honoring God regularly by extending family worship beyond Sunday mornings. Because life is too busy to neglect God.
Friday, November 15 - 7:00-9:30pm
Saturday, November 16 - 9:00am-12:30pm
$35 per attendee (price increases November 1).

Join us for our Marriage Retreat at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel on March 22-23, 2024.
We wholeheartedly believe that marriage is a wonderful gift from the Lord. A gift we want to cherish and be intentional with. This is a great opportunity for a marriage reset or to continue to build on the good momentum in your marriage. This retreat is designed to give you quality and biblical teaching on marriage as well as adequate time for you and your spouse to focus on your marriage. We have the privilege of Phil Newton leading our sessions. We will be blessed by having him and his wife join us. There is early bird pricing through December 31. Learn more and register here!
The focus of this 2024 conference is the important topic of Membership. Many evangelical churches have a form of membership, but how does our theology inform why we have membership? And how should we practice healthy membership for the good of the church? This conference will be helpful to both vocational church leaders as well as lay leaders and congregants as we seek to encourage the breadth of the local church.
Speakers will present nine sessions on building healthy (that is, biblical) churches in light of meaningful membership. We want to think about not just what membership is, but what it means for the local church. There will be many opportunities throughout the conference to ask questions, dialogue with the speakers, and build relationships with other Christians.
Ethnic Unity and the Church Conference
As Shai Linne has observed, "There are many conversations about ethnicity in the church today. I see a lot of anger, sarcasm, unforgiveness, and mockery. What I don’t see is a lot of humility, gentleness, patience, and bearing with one another in love."
Join us as we seek to address these potential challenges by listening to God's Word preached, worshiping through song, and seeking the Lord through prayer. During the last conference, it was evident how unique such a gathering must have been in the city of Portland - a joyful, multiethnic assembly of followers of Jesus Christ who are united in the gospel. Plan to join us for this year’s conference on January 19-20, 2024 at Trinity Church.
If you register (www.ethnicunityandthechurch.com) before January 1 using the code: hinsonpdx, your cost will only be $20 per ticket.
The men of HBC will gather together again for fellowship, good food, and to discuss an important topic to be announced. We will talk about what Men's ministry looks like at Hinson, sing together, and hear from God’s Word.
Learn or sharpen your Bible Study Skills using the COMA method. This will be an informative and hands-on workshop lead by Adrienne Lawrence, Mary Liebert, and Ashley Schreiner.
Women’s Bible Study will start September 13, 2023, with morning and evening options.
Fall 2023
The Hinson Ecclesiology Class will cover the most significant material from the Hinson Pastoral Residency. God’s Word directs how we ought to live together as a local church. The Elders believe that the congregation should understand the centrality of the local church in the life of the believer. Taking this class will better equip us to live together and reflect on “the multi-faceted wisdom of God” (Eph. 3:10) in the gospel. The schedule, teachers, readings, and homework requirements (1 hour per week) will be posted in the coming months. You can find more details on the class and how to apply below.

The 9Marks Conference Northwest is a way for Christians to learn about often-overlooked biblical practices for the church. The focus of this 2023 conference is the important topic of Evangelism. Many evangelical churches talk about the importance of evangelism, but how does our theology inform our evangelism and how should evangelism effect the health of our church? This conference will be helpful to both vocational church leaders as well as lay leaders and congregants as we seek to encourage the breadth of the local church.
Speakers will present nine sessions on building healthy (that is, biblical) churches in light of evangelism.

Join us at Trinity Church for a Christmas sing-along.
"When it comes to ethnicity, the proper response for the Christian is not to ignore it. Or gloat about it. Or be ashamed of it. Or feel guilty about it. The proper response is to thank God for it and leverage it for the glory of God." —Shai Linne
