  • SEBTS Convocation of the Laity March 22 to 24, 1985

    Description:
    The service begins by introducing Barry Creamer, who was the Associational Brotherhood Director for the Saluda Baptist Association (0:00:00-0:01:34). Creamer reads Matthew 5:13-16, 23-24 and has a word of prayer (0:01:35-0:06:10). Hubert Line, who was the coordinator for the Volunteer Ministries program in the Brotherhood Department of the South Carolina Baptist Convention, is introduced to share his testimony (0:06:11-0:08:03). Line reads Matthew 16:24 and shares the testimony of how God worked to show him that Christianity is not just about talk, but about action (0:08:04-0:24:15). Michael Hawn sings a song of worship (0:24:16-0:29:30). Dr. Findley Edge, who was the Basil Manly Professor of Religious Education, is introduced as the next speaker (0:29:31-0:31:18). Edge begins by giving the theme of his presentation, which is the role of pastors (0:31:19-0:33:00). Edge explains the tendency to keep the form but lose the essence in pastoring, which he terms the problem of the institutionalization of the church (0:33:01-0:40:10). Edge speaks on what is the calling or role of a pastor, drawing from the New Testament teachings and descriptions of apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, bishops, and elders (0:40:11-1:15:19). Edge says the overriding ministry task of the pastor is to teach and equip the people (1:15:20-1:25:00). Edge argues that the members of a church must also change their expectation of a pastor (1:25:01-1:30:30). Christine Gregory, who was a mother and high-school economics teacher, is introduced as the next speaker (1:30:31-1:32:25). Gregory speaks of unstructured stimuli, which are things that spark thoughts, explaining the scientific reason of how all people are similar regardless of background and upbringing (1:32:26-1:36:18). Gregory speaks about how Jesus brings together people of different backgrounds and educations for the purpose to serve Him through evangelism (1:36:19-1:49:36). The service is concluded in a word of prayer (1:49:37-1:50:32).
