1. SEBTS Chapel - Nancy Ferree March 4, 1986
- Description:
- Nancy Ferree was the Assistant Campus Minister at Duke Chapel. The service begins with organ music (0:00-5:22). There is a Scripture reading (5:23-6:05). Prayer concerns are shared with the congregation and there is a moment of prayer (6:06-10:02). Nancy Ferree is introduced as the chapel speaker (10:03-10:34). Ferree expresses her appreciation for being asked to speak (10:35-10:09). She reads from James 2:14-17 and Mark 8:27-38 (10:10-14:06). Ferree speaks about people living up to titles they have and the disgrace they bring upon themselves if they do not live up to the titles they own (14:07-17:35). Ferree shares that in the Scripture on which she is teaching, Jesus and the disciples speak about Jesus’ title: the Christ (17:36-19:56). She explains that it’s easier to envision a great Messiah to come rather than to see the Jesus of the New Testament as the Son of God (19:57-20:10). Ferree shares of someone in her life who has exemplified the work of Christ and doing so for Christ’s glory instead of one’s own (20:11-26:25). She charges the seminarians to humbly and carefully examine their character and desire in ministry and to remember they each have an invaluable contribution to the church (26:24-27:25). She shares about a friend of hers who was a female minister in order to show that one should look past one’s title (27:26-28:57). The service ends with a charge for the students (28:58-29:16).
