First Baptist Church

>> "Gospel Motivated Partnerships" 

​

As a church participating in the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) please watch this sermon titled "Gospel Motivated Partnerships" to get a picture of our cooperation with other like-minded churches for Great Commission endeavors. The sermon explains why we are seeking Gospel motivated partnerships, not only through the Cooperative Program (CP) of the Southern Baptist Convention, but also promoting a vision that all of our participation and partnerships are due to our like-minded vision of ministry with other likeminded churches, ministries, pastors, and missionaries. 

​

As you will hear, our cooperation with the Great Commission Southern Baptists is robust, but we always evaluate all of our partnerships based on the Gospel and our Centered Church Commitments as a Word, Gospel, and Disciple Centered Church. This means that we seek align all of our ministry with this “bullseye” focus through our commitment to Expository Preaching, Intentional Discipleship, and the Great Commission, all to fulfill our mission of "glorifying God by building up and reaching out!"

​

This sermons purpose is to provide an overview of our Local, Domestic, and International cooperation and focuses on displaying our Gospel Motivated Partnerships, and also demonstrates the great reach that we have as a local church in partnering with other believers for the Glory of God in the fulfilling of the Great Commission. Please watch this sermon if you are interested in church membership to hopefully get excited about the ministry going on through FBC Gallatin. Please also note that there is of course always more to be said on this topic in terms of all of our partnerships entail in the SBC and beyond, and that there may be even more partnerships added from the time this sermon was first preached on 5/8/22.

On that note, FBC Gallatin has recently (at the end of 2020) hosted one of our IMB missionaries that are now serving in South East Asia to get to know them personally, and also partner with them in prayer and occasional video conferences and meetings. We also partner with a local DOM (Director of Mission) and association (NGRBA) through undesignated giving and support as well. Furthermore, in 2022, FBC Gallatin had the privilege to get to know and support the ministry of the director of the Abu Dhabi extension campus of Gulf Theological Seminary who is doing the great work of training pastors and church workers who are serving all over the world.
