Partnering In God's Global Mission (Nathan Reid)

In this special guest message, Nathan Reid from Baptist Mission Australia explores Philippians 1:1–11, reflecting on the powerful dynamic of partnering together for the sake of the global gospel. Drawing on his own cross-cultural experiences, he shares how stepping out into mission—whether locally or supporting work in rural Southeast Asia—profoundly shapes our understanding of what it means to be a shepherd and a servant. He highlights that despite poverty, trauma, or cultural barriers, God actively calls and empowers ordinary people to display remarkable gifts in His global mission when the church stands together. The message concludes with a prayer for fresh, green shoots of love and a challenge to continue walking faithfully with the great God of Pentecost, who constantly sends us out to partner in His transformative work across the world.
