Finding A Point of Difference

Andrea Badcock, a Point of Difference

Finding A Point of Difference

Heartlands News

Andrea Badcock works for Tasmanian Baptists two mornings a week and Newstead Baptist three mornings a week, while also running her own business from home.

Born and Raised in Tassie 

I was born in Launceston, Tasmania, to Dutch immigrants. I’ve been bilingual for as long as I can remember— although my parents never deliberately set out to make me so, I simply began to understand what they were saying. 

Before I was born, my parents began attending the Christian Revival Crusade (CRC) with Pastor Ken Chant. I’ve been a Christian my whole life, though not always a regular churchgoer. I was saved at nine and baptised at 14. I loved being a Pentecostal believer, and I loved my church and its youth community. 

My mum’s family came to Tasmania shortly after they left Holland, because they missed her— apart from one sister who married and moved to South Africa. Mum had four brothers and four sisters; Dad was one of eight, with six brothers and one sister. One of Mum’s brothers and sisters lived nearby, and we often did things together as a family. Mum miscarried my brother at six months and was told not to have more children, which was heartbreaking for them and for me.

Growing Up

We lived in Zeehan for five years (1969–1974), and as a child I loved it. It was a lively, community-minded place to grow up. My performing life began there with a Brownie production of Snow White and a school production of Off the Beaten Track. That’s when I knew I wanted to perform. I danced, sang, and wanted to record music. When we moved back to Launceston, I pursued my dream and by 16, I was performing in a band at local pubs and clubs. 

“You Can Do This”

At 19, I was in a horrendous car accident on my way to the Mother of the Year contest and never made it there. It took 18-months before I could walk unaided. Doctors told my mother there was only a slim chance I’d walk again, and that I would likely be in a wheelchair for life. 

Mum clung to that small chance with her faith in God and sheer determination. Through painful rehab, and Mum pushing me as hard as she could, I eventually walked again. My spine is fused, which keeps me upright, and although I sometimes use walking aids, I can always hear Mum’s voice: You can do this. I know you can! 

A Fork in the Road 

In my twenties, I moved around before settling in Newcastle for a year, where much of Mum’s family lived. I cared for my Oma (grandmother) and worked in Sydney. This is where I began singing in piano bars with a fellow Tasmanian pianist, and we did quite well. I even met Michael Gudinski, who wanted to record my voice. At that point, I was eager to seize the opportunity, but my back problems flared up, landing me in hospital sky high on drugs. I had to cancel the recording contract. 

I haven’t regretted it. At the time, the paparazzi were relentless, and like many artists, I found them intimidating. Princess Diana’s death in 1997 was a wake-up call about the downsides of fame. I felt safe at home, playing in my band every Friday and Saturday night. Even now, people come up to me saying, “You played at our wedding … at the football club … at the pub … at festivals.” Those memories mean a lot. 

Tasmanian Life

I’m married to Dale, and we have four children: three boys and one girl: Will (30), Esther (24), Aidan (23), and James (21). They are a joy and I love them so much.  

To see them grow into well-adjusted adults is such a blessing, especially considering doctors once told me I wouldn’t have children. After nine miscarriages Will was born, I am so amazed by them 

I now split my time between working for Tasmanian Baptists (two mornings a week), Newstead Baptist (three mornings a week), and running my business, A Point of Difference Labour Hire, which provides seasonal workers from Papua New Guinea, New Caledonia, Vanuatu, and the Wallis and Futuna Islands. 

For the Love of Music 

I currently have a youth production called Youth Spectacular in the works, though it’s on hold due to work commitments. We’re aiming for March/April 2026. It’s a showcase for talented young dancers, singers, and instrumentalists from Launceston and surrounds. They help create the performance from the ground up—choosing lights, costumes, and even music—while working alongside industry professionals. If you see the advertising, please come and see them!      

I play bass guitar and piano in the church band, making sure that the keys are correct and that everyone has a copy. I am currently learning how to do the audiovisuals for songs and announcements. Playing the music is uplifting and I love that, doing the AV. It’s a part of music and I still feel connected to it.

How to Pray for Andrea …

I’m working on maintaining a calm, non-stressed attitude—something that doesn’t always come naturally. My role sometimes requires delivering difficult feedback or even letting someone go after repeated warnings, which I find challenging. 

Pray that I keep walking closely with God, that I continue to be a “point of difference” in my work, and that the people I manage understand we care about them—not just as workers, but as people.

Short ‘n’ Sweet

I‘m looking forward to… playing bass with the Worship Team.

I am worried about… getting everything done on time as some of the time lines are a bit tight. 

I‘m confident in… the work I do, and feel the hand of God asking me to stay.

I am joyful about… having the energy to complete the tasks that are set for me. 

I‘d like to change… the pain of war in the countries where war is going on at the the moment.

I am at my best when… I am helping others, chatting with them 

The best advice I ever received? If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all.

The Only Way Forward Is to Remember Who We Are

Remeber who we are

The Only Way Forward Is to Remember Who We Are

Standing at the Crossroads

We’re standing at a crossroads. Not just as individual churches, but as a movement. And not just in theory—right now. In Tasmania. In our generation.

There’s a word from Isaiah that won’t leave me alone: “Listen to me, all who hope for deliverance, all who seek the Lord. Consider the rock from which you were cut, the quarry from which you were mined.” (Isaiah 51:1)

And Jeremiah says it even more starkly: “Stop at the crossroads and look around. Ask for the old godly way, and walk in it. Travel its path and you will find rest for your souls.” But then the people respond, “No, that’s not the road we want.” (Jeremiah 6:16)

That’s the choice before us. And it’s not just abstract. It’s personal. Will we follow the road that leads to life—even if it costs us—or will we quietly choose comfort and drift?

This weekend marked my first since being appointed the incoming Mission Director for the Baptist Union of Tasmania. I spent it in Perth. The birthplace of the Baptist Union. A little church built on the faith of a woman most of us have never heard of—Mary Ann Gibson.

Faith That Built Something Real

Before we go forward, we need to look back. And what we find is both a warning and an invitation.

The very first Baptist church in Australia was here in Hobart. But it died. It became a Europe Car Rentals. The reason? It was part of a group called the Particular Baptists—strict and closed. They believed only those who agreed with them could take communion. and they believed evangelism wasn’t necessary because God had already chosen who would be saved. They turned inward. And eventually, they disappeared.

But another story was unfolding—not far away.

Mary Ann Gibson had come from Britain to marry William Gibson, a wealthy sheep breeder whose father had arrived in chains. William was clever with sheep, but it was Mary Ann whose faith would change everything. She loved Jesus. And she didn’t keep that to herself.

She opened her home, invited the whole town into worship, hosted ministers, fed strangers, and built a small chapel in Perth that would become the centre of a movement. When they couldn’t find a pastor, she sent her son all the way to England to speak to Charles Spurgeon.

That decision changed the course of Baptist history in Tasmania.

Spurgeon’s DNA and the Heart of the Movement

Charles Spurgeon didn’t care about pedigree or credentials. He cared about the call of God. “We never dreamed of making men preachers,” he said, “but we desired to help those whom God had already called.” He gathered ordinary people with extraordinary hearts and trained them—starting in his home, eventually through a college. He taught them logic, mathematics, preaching, pastoral care, and biblical languages. But most of all, he taught them to love Jesus and love people.

And that’s what Mary Ann wanted for Tasmania. Her son brought back Spurgeon’s first preachers, and they lit a fire. They planted churches in Blackwood Creek, Perth, Deloraine, Longford, Latrobe, Launceston, Sheffield, Devonport, Burnie—and yes, Hobart. Within 20 years, the map of northern Tasmania was dotted with churches born out of love for Jesus and the courage to respond to their time.

They weren’t just preaching sermons, they were shaping communities.

They held public lectures, like Spurgeon’s famous Sermons in Candles, where everyday objects became powerful metaphors for life with God. And they taught people to read— not just Scripture, but poetry and philosophy. They hosted debates on real-world issues— Should vaccines be mandated? Should women propose to men?—in 1903!

They created youth savings banks to teach financial wisdom; they responded to poverty. They wore blue ribbons to stand against alcohol abuse. And they weren’t afraid to try something new if it meant loving their neighbours better.

They weren’t just replicating the past. They were building something real, for their time, in their place.

The Hooks in the Pews and the Heart in the Walls

Today, 150 years later, you can still see the little hooks in the pews where Mary Ann and William hung their hats. Their Bible is still there, with William’s handwriting inside. You can walk the path they walked to church. And the spirit they lived with still echoes in the walls.

And it’s not just history.

Perth Baptist Church is alive. Last week, their Mother’s Day high tea was so packed they had to turn people away. Hundreds show up at Christmas for carols and their community picnic. They’re planning a kids club and Alpha course this July—not because they’re confident, but because they’re courageous. They’re stepping out.

And that’s the invitation for all of us.

Don’t just preserve the past. Don’t get lost in nostalgia. But also—don’t forget where we came from. Don’t forget what faith looks like when it’s real.

Leslie Newbigin, one of the most insightful missiologists of the last century, said churches fail in four ways:

  1. When they copy forms from another time or place, instead of responding to their own.
  2. When they become indistinguishable from the world.
  3. When they stand in constant judgment of their community, rather than seeing where God is already at work.
  4. When they refuse to change and become static, outdated relics of the past.

The Particular Baptists made all four mistakes. But the Gibsons didn’t. Perth Baptist Church didn’t. And we don’t have to.

The Church That Loves Jesus and Loves People

It’s easy to drift. It’s easy to focus on keeping the lights on or winning the theological argument. But the early Baptist movement in Tasmania wasn’t built on safety. It was built on sacrifice. On hospitality, on courage, on the belief that Jesus really is the way, the truth, and the life. Not just for the church, but for the world.

Hebrews 12 says, “Since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down… and let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus.”

For me, that cloud of witnesses includes Mary Ann and William Gibson. It includes the preachers from Spurgeon’s college. It includes every unknown saint who taught a child to read, fed a hungry neighbour, or quietly prayed for revival in a town no one else noticed.

We’re not here to play church, we’re not here to take up space.

We’re here to love Jesus. To love our communities. And to live our lives for the audience of One.

That’s the only way forward.

Meet Matt Garvin – Tas Baptists New Mission Director

Matthew Garvin

Meet Matt Garvin – Tas Baptists New Mission Director

Meet Matt, TasBaptists Incoming Mission Director

At the Assembly on 10 May, the Tasmanian Baptist council agreed to appoint Matthew Garvin to the position of Mission Director.  Matt will transition to the position over the next six months. He will formally taking on the role at the October 18 Assembly after spending time connecting with our 29 churches. 

Matt is currently working as Senior Pastor of Citywide Baptist Church. He sits on the Tasmanian Baptist Council. He is married to Leeanne and they have four children aged between 22 and 29. Two children are married. Their first grandson, Elijah, was born on 31 March 2025.  

He recently reflected on key points of his journey1.  

Loving The Journey

I love the journey God has taken me on ever since I was baptised in the Broken Hill community swimming pool. I had put off making a public profession of faith because I didn’t just want to simply imitate my family; I wanted to be sure I believed it myself, but at 18 I was clear that I wanted my life to be a reflection of my commitment to, and love for Jesus. 

In the middle of an identity crisis in my first few months with Fusion in Hobart, I found the importance of committing myself to a mission.

I wrote about it in my book 6 Radical Decisions: 

I was terribly lonely, disillusioned and wondering whether God was actually there. All the things I thought seemed so easy in a classroom now seemed so complicated in real life. I kept looking for someone to tell me what to do, but no one seemed to know. 

Our little team went to the home of an older friend and former Fusion worker’s house for Sunday lunch and the conversation turned to Fusion in Tasmania. I remember clearly his words, “People have been coming and going from the team here in Hobart for too long, what it really needs is someone to dig in and commit.”  
I remember the sick feeling in my stomach as I knew in my heart God was saying “Matt, that’s you.”
I wrestled for a week but eventually gave in. I drove to the top of Mt. Wellington, which towers over the small city, and prayed, “OK God, you’ve got me; I’m willing to accept the challenge of this city.” 

That moment of commitment changed how I viewed my time in Hobart. I continued to make mistakes, lots of them, but they became points of learning as I continued to grow. I found myself more able to be creative, because I was now working towards a vision I carried rather than looking to others for direction.

From Matt’s book, ‘6 Radical Decisions’

Seeking First The Kingdom of God

Another key moment was the time I told my father I was going to marry Leeanne and he said to me, “As long as you are seeking first the Kingdom and not a wife, then everything will be ok.” 

Leeanne and I grappled with Matthew 6:33 and felt as though it was God’s verse for our marriage. We wanted our lives to be about seeking first the Kingdom of God. That commitment has continued to be the bedrock of our decision-making and the source of the remarkable adventure that God has us on. 

We had thought we would be in ministry with Fusion for our whole lives, but through some painful and confusing experiences, it became clear that was not the case. We were so grateful for a small team of Canadians who felt God asked them to offer to support our family to come and have a sabbatical. At the same time, I studied at a North American Baptist Seminary. 

The time I spent in Canada was transformational. God instilled in me a profound love for the local church and a commitment to bringing the best of what I had learned over twenty years in a mission organisation into that context. My passion for the Bible was also deepened and broadened, making teaching the Bible one of my greatest joys. 

Returning To Hobart

It became clear that our time in Canada was drawing to an end when we received a second communication from Citywide Baptist Church seeking a Senior Pastor. Returning to Hobart, where my adult journey truly began, felt like God was taking the promise I had made all those years ago seriously. We have loved our Citywide church family and hope to continue with them for many years to come. 

Initially, I had made it clear that I was not interested in getting involved in broader Baptist matters. However, as I met people from churches across the state, I began to feel a growing warmth for the smaller Baptist churches that have faithfully served for many years. In particular, spending a few weekends with the Sheffield Baptist church community had a significant impact on both Leeanne and me. 

Discovering The Baptist D.N.A

I also loved what I was beginning to discover about the Baptist D.N.A. The Baptist Values project identified four core values that have been true throughout the movement’s history. I resonate deeply with all four (Jesus, Mission, Community and Freedom). In particular, the way that Baptists hold both a commitment to the Freedom of Individual conscience and, as a result, congregational governance and yet the absolute commitment to the Lordship of Jesus Christ leads me to believe that our movement might have something important to offer an increasingly fragmented society. 

It was both the increasing love for Baptist churches around the state and a growing appreciation for what makes Baptists unique that started Leeanne and me thinking that it might be right to offer ourselves for the position of Mission Director after one of our church trustees pulled me aside and indicated that he believed God was telling him to tell me that I should consider it. 

I am grateful for how our church has wrestled with the question of releasing me to take up this role and the sense of willingness to trust in the face of some uncertainty that has been a theme throughout the conversation. The church is pleased with the idea of a six month transition and trial period that will enable us to get a sense of what this will mean longer term.

Dan Evenhuis – Citywide

Dan Evenhuis - Citywide

Ministry Profile

Dan Evenhuis recently began working at Citywide Baptist as the Executive Pastor.

I hail from Smithton, and I spent my early years with my four siblings on a cattle farm. My family had a strong Christian focus, with Bible readings and prayer at mealtimes. Currently, I am Executive Pastor for Citywide Baptist Church. My job is to help the smooth running of our church. I’m also focusing on worship, pastoral care, and outreach.

We lived in Melbourne when I was between the ages of four and 12, while Dad ministered to the Melbourne Jewish Community. Then, when I turned 13, we returned to Smithton. I found the transition very difficult, although it was during this period I met Jesus, who became my best friend. I was constantly aware of His presence and a natural friendly relationship developed, and I was very conscious of God with me. As I rode my bike to the milking shed at 5:30am, I’d talk to Jesus along the way as though it was the most natural thing.

As an adult, I have loved working with the Youth and Community organisation Fusion, with committed godly communities around the world, seeing others being saved. I loved to see the effect no matter what the denomination.

Reaching our communities is the long-game.

Dan Evenhuis

My most recent experience with Fusion was in Oxfordshire UK, bringing the community together in a three-day festival. It was an amazing few days, ending a quite depressing year. I felt people were feeling something like, “I respect and admire these people and know they are Christians. They’re smart and don’t seem deluded, but they really believe in this God stuff. I must be missing something.” Reaching our communities is the long-game. It’s a lot of work and investment, but so worth it.

Family and the BIG move

Danni and I have been married now for 21 years. Back in the UK she taught and did dance instructing. Now, she’s teaching at Calvin Christian School in Kingston. We have four children aged from 11 to 17 years old. When I am asked how I do spend my time, I say: “I have four kids!”

Last year, we decided to come back to Tasmania after 18 fulfilling years of ministry in the UK. Back in 2014 a few of us in Oxfordshire started a less formal, and more welcoming, family-friendly Church. It continued to grow due to its unique ministry and had become stable. Now that the church is sustainable, Danni and I thought it’s time to go back to Tasmania. Family is important, and yet for 18 years we’d been doing mission on the other side of the world. It was time to expose our English-born children to Aussie culture as well as give them time to get to know their cousins, grandparents, uncles and aunties. Slowly, they’re beginning to settle into Tasmanian life. It’s going to take a lot of time though for them to feel like they belong. Please pray for them after this big international move.

Evenhuis children 2022

In Tasmania, we love the nature and the outdoors, the beauty, and the stunning surroundings. We always thought Hobart was one of the most beautiful cities in the world, and now we live here! My family also enjoy having extended family around. It’s different to being in a country on our own. I remember on a holiday here seven years ago, my kids were surprised someone had a photo of them up in their loungeroom. It was my Auntie from Burnie. Family is like that.

I am really looking forward to getting to know the Citywide family, and other Christians across the state. I think the church seems to be struggling a fair bit here in Tasmania, and I’m so keen for us to work with God and throw all we have into His ministry.

Life Challenges for Dan Evenhuis

Dan Evenhuis received some great advice: "A calm sea never made a good sailor"
“A calm sea never made a good sailor”

The best advice I have received is: “A calm sea never made a good sailor”. God does not ask us to cram our Christian mission beyond our busy life. We decide how much time to allocate. I’m keen for the church to be a source of enlightenment in our community – for us not to be in our Christian ghettos, but to bring Christ within reach of those around us.

I have many challenges in everyday life. Running a church is busy work and I want to be careful that we manage how much of our effort goes into a Sunday Service. Many churches invest around 80% of their time and resources into that one Service. I would instead love to say, if you want to get to know our church, don’t just turn up on a Sunday, come and see us through the week as well. For example at Citywide, there is an amazing craft group which meets on Thursdays, with about 100 attendees. Our purpose is to stay outward focused because we exist for those who are not in the church yet!

I’d really appreciate your prayers for me, that I can stand back and have some time with God regularly so I can work out what he wants me to work on. There are no end of jobs to do, but I want to do what he has for me today.

And Briefly

I am looking forward to … bushwalking with my family.

I am worried about … many struggling churches across Tasmania.

I am confident that … I’m where God wants me.

I am joyful about … being around family.

I would like to change … church being performance- and sermon-driven. I’d love to see the church becoming a vibrant, God-centred community of believers involved in whole-life ministry.

I am at my best when … I am close to God and aware of His love for me.

Jeff Percival

Jeff Percival Lower Barrington
Jeff Percival at Lower Barrington

Jeff Percival was inducted at Lower Barrington Baptist on Sunday 6th February 2022. He is pictured above on induction day with Ann, their daughter Anitra, and Tas Baptists Mission Director Stephen Baxter.

But who is Jeff and what gets him excited? To fill the gaps, Jeff wrote his story. Read on!

The Royal Women’s Hospital in Sydney is where it all began for me. Dad was granted compassionate leave from duty with the air force in Darwin to see his eldest son, just after I was born. He spent most of time with the bomb disposal unit at the Darwin RAAF base. My parents moved to Cronulla in the Sutherland Shire NSW when I was five and I spent all my teenage years there. 

My young sister died at four years old and that event
changed the life of the Percival family

Most of my time outside of school hours was spent surfing at Cronulla beach and sailing in Botany Bay with Dad and my younger brother.

My young sister died at four years old and that event changed the life of the Percival family forever. God intervened in a mighty way when my parents sought answers as to why she had to be taken from us. The long journey ended when they became Christians and joined the local Baptist Church.

Church became a major part of our lives from then on, and Church camps and Sunday school provided great times of fellowship. It was at one of the camps at Tahlee where I was convinced of my need to confess Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour.

Working and Ministry Life

Further study after leaving school centred on Accountancy and Purchasing Diploma, and led to a position of Purchasing Manager with a large multi-national company. The fast-paced life in the secular world took its toll after 20 or so years. So, Ann and I moved to the north coast where we built our home in a beautiful dairy valley. By that time, all our children had married, and we now have 15 grandchildren.

“All those who graduated were sent out to supportive churches”

I had begun theological studies with Tabor College, and after several years we were called to Teen Challenge, a Christian drug and Alcohol rehabilitation centre. Our job there was as Camp Director/ Pastor and Counsellors.

We spent three years living with 10 staff and 30 “students”. Teaching was done at four Chapel services a week, and one on Sunday. Counselling was given on a needs basis, and the students lived on site for 12-months. Then, all those who graduated were sent out to supportive churches. There they were encouraged and supported to live drug free.

Never have I been so aware of the sovereignty of God in difficult situations and the changes in the lives of those students who graduated when they yielded their life to Christ. The Lord was so present with us and so real. So much so, it was difficult for all staff to readjust to “normal” life outside when they left.

How Will they Hear?

In later years I began an interim pastoral role with churches who were without a pastor. This brought us to Tasmania in March 2015. Here I have had an itinerant ministry, preaching from north to south, over approximately eight years.

A quotation from Charles Spurgeon I’ve applied to my life since first reading it in the mid-90’s is, “When God calls you to preach the Gospel , don’t stop on the way to become a King.”

I will never decline the opportunity to preach the Gospel of the good news of Jesus Christ. This is because I’ve seen captives set free from the most debilitating addictions. As well, “how will they hear without a preacher?” It is so exciting to see lives transformed by the Holy Spirit and the Word of God!

How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?

Romans 10:14

Blessing upon Blessing

Jeff and Ann Percival
Jeff and Ann

What blessings the Lord has bestowed upon Ann and myself over the years! Here we are at Lower Barrington Baptist Church. It is our new Church family, who are hungry for the Word of God.

These are exciting times for those who watch for His coming to call His children home to be with Him. It is time to be diligent in the study of the Word and prepare ourselves for the Lord’s imminent return. Pray for those who, week by week, preach the unadulterated truth that they never compromise the God they serve.    

In a few words: Jeff Percival

I look forward to worshiping the Lamb and crying, “Holy Holy worthy is the Lamb!”

“Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain,
    to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength
    and honour and glory and praise!”

Revelation 5:12 (NIV)

I worry about, and am burdened for, the lost, those who have no living hope! 

I am confident that the current world situation is encapsulated in Psalm 2.

Why do the nations conspire
    and the peoples plot in vain?

Psalm 2:1

I am overjoyed the Lord has seen fit to bless me with an opportunity, at this end of my life, to preach the Gospel.

I am at my best when I am walking with my Lord, confident that He goes before me.
