United in Mission: Presenters

We're pleased to be able to introduce you to some of the people who will be leading sessions at this year's United in Mission Baptist Assembly.

Lynn Green

General Secretary, Baptist Union of Great Britain

Lynn Green is passionate about inspiring in others a longing for God, a longing for mission and a longing for relationships through her ministry. She has a heart for the flourishing of Baptists Together and has served as General Secretary of the Baptist Union of Great Britain for over 10 years. Lynn connects regularly with local churches and leaders and is so encouraged by all the ways she is seeing God at work in and through our Baptist movement.

Lynn is a wise, gracious and inspiring speaker who loves Scripture and seeks to bring prophetic insight when she shares. Her ministry is enriched by her global connections and she currently serves on the Executive Committee of the Baptist World Alliance.

Lynn is married to Stuart and they have four children and one grandchild. She enjoys reading, walking, baking and holidays in her caravan.

Kang-San Tan

General Director, BMS World Mission

Malaysian-born (into a Buddhist family), educated everywhere, Kang-San is also chair of the Commission on Mission and provides leadership for the Global Baptist Mission Network of the Baptist World Alliance, and he has previously served as head of mission studies at Redcliffe College and executive director of AsiaCMS.

Kang-San is quite literally the brains behind BMS’ shift in direction to becoming ‘polycentric’ and his heart is for Christians in the UK to be fully connected to the phenomenal currents of change at play in the Global Church. His latest work is Humble Confidence: A Model for Interfaith Apologetics.

Areas of expertise: intercultural apologetics, interfaith dialogue, the global church, Christianity and Imperialism, missiology, leading huge cultural change
