- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of Isaiah 55:1-2 (00:00-00:38), prayer (00:47-03:37), and the reading of 2 Peter 1:1-11 (03:48-06:00). No introduction was given for Thomas Albert Bland, but he was Associate Professor of Christian Sociology and Ethics. He begins by talking about the importance of the “frontier” in American history, taking note of the race for space but placing importance on the frontier of the inner man (06:01-08:13). Bland says that Peter, in this text, focuses on Faith’s Frontier, identifying seven qualities of life which are to be added to one’s faith; he was not academic but practical, having been personally impacted by the life and ministry of Jesus Christ (08:14-11:37). Bland then continues walking through the list mentioned in the text one item at a time, building upon the foundation of faith. He notes that faith and knowledge go together, so long as knowledge has self-control so that it does not puff one up in conceit (11:38-19:06). He ends his time in prayer (19:07-19:46).

- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of Psalm 1:1-2 (00:00-00:30) and of Matthew 6:2-13 (00:31-02:18), along with prayer (02:19-03:17). This is the final of 3 sermons on the Lord’s Prayer by Dr. Ernest Mayfield Ligon. Dr. Ligon was the Director of the Character Research Project at Union College in Schenectady, NY (03:18-09:16). Singing follows these opening words (09:17-12:07). He begins by telling a checkers story to illustrate that sometimes we change the rules of the game in order that we will win or to suit ourselves (12:08-16:27). Most days, we statistically face two courses: that of courage and that of safety, the more advantageous of the two being the path of courage (16:28-34:48). He ends in prayer (34:49-38:02), and the service ends with the singing of the end of the Lord’s Prayer (38:03-38:47).

- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of Psalm 34:8 (00:00-00:21). An introduction is given for Dr. Ernest Mayfield Ligon, who was the Director of the Character Research Project at Union College in Schenectady, NY, as he delivers the second meditation in this series on the Lord’s Prayer (00:22-00:44). Dr. Ligon begins by reading Matthew 6:5-13 and offering some opening words (00:45-02:55). He recaps from the first meditation briefly (02:56-03:47). His message this day focuses on what you will do, based on verses 10-12. He outlines that most discovery comes from creative conflict and not from individual discovery (03:48-11:05). Next, he posits that we could never learn enough to worry God in His omniscience; while we could never know more than God, we should always seek to learn more, for we will never know everything (11:06-15:53). He views verse 11 as the realistic part of the prayer (15:54-17:58). He views verse 12 in this light as well (17:59-19:36). His last petition is on the words “lead us” in verse 13, which he views as communicating the willing, humble attitude which people need if they tend to have a “self-made” mentality (19:37-22:22). He ends in prayer (22:23-24:12), and the service ends with the singing of Numbers 6:24-26 (24:13-25:26).

- Description:

An introduction is given for the speaker, Ernest Mayfield Ligon, who was the Director of the Character Research Project at Union College in Schenectady, NY (05:41-07:05). His message is the first of three in a series on the Lord’s Prayer. He begins by relating the spiritual life of the world to the “darkness” of Genesis 1:2 but encourages the audience that God called light into existence in Genesis 1:3. He emphasizes the importance of Jesus’s discipleship of the twelve during His earthly ministry (07:06-14:36). This message will focus only on “Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed by thy name” (14:37-15:03). He emphasizes the importance of “making decisions” and “responsibility” for the upcoming generations in their discipleship (15:04-18:38), describing the topic in terms of raising children (18:39-26:36). He ends in prayer (26:37-27:24).
