Nick Hawkes


Dr Nick Hawkes has two degrees in science and two in theology, and he has written books on both topics. His book
The Bible on the Key Issues of Life
won the Selah Award for its category in the United States in 2014.
Nick has been a research scientist, pastor, apologist and guest lecturer at a number of theological colleges.


He has also recorded over 400,000 words for Christian radio in Australia and the United Kingdom.

This series of devotions have grown out of Nick’s ongoing, five-year battle with cancer. He lives in Adelaide, South Australia, with his wife Mary.



Our beloved friend, Dr Nick Hawkes, quietly slipped away to be with his Maker on Friday 10 March 2023

Forty days can change a person’s history – and even a nation’s history. So here’s an invitation to allow it to change yours. Let’s walk together, you and I, and talk of sacred things; things that are perhaps too rarely spoken of, even in the Christian church. I’m talking about finding God amidst the suffering that each of us will inevitably experience in life ... we will be talking about profound things – the hope there is in God, and the exquisitely painful and beautiful demands that love puts on us all.
