- Les and Hazel Watson were that year’s Fletcher Visiting Professors of Missions and Emeritus Missionaries to Japan. Les and Hazel Watson are announced as Chapel speakers (0:00-0:16). A hymn is played (0:17-2:31). It is announced as the second missionary address day of the semester, and a word of prayer is given (2:32-5:09). Another hymn is played (cut) (5:10-5:13). Scripture reading for the day comes from Acts 16:8-10 (5:14-5:52). The Watsons are introduced (7:31-11:35). The choir sings an anthem (11:36-17:28). Hazel Watson speaks of the missionary opportunities, especially for women, as well as commitment and prayer (17:29-27:08). She ends with a word on how discipleship, discipline, and obedience bring us closer to God and how women are needed over seas (27:09-27:55). Les Watson begins with rereading some of the Scripture reading from Acts 16, focusing on how God can change our plans to fit His plans (27:56-29:30). He strongly emphasizes the answering of God’s call to missions and highlights the many priority requests of the Southern Baptist Foreign Mission Board for 1989 (34:12-35:22). He then discusses when he answered the call and how God provided for him and his family (35:23-37:39). Dr. Watson reassures that God will supply for the needs of His followers (37:40-39:56).

- Anne L. Neil was Consultant for Women in Ministry. Neil is announced as the Chapel speaker (0:00-0:07). A hymn is played (0:08-6:54). Luke 1:39-56 is the Scripture reading of the day (6:55-9:39). A list of concerns is discussed (9:40-11:05). A word of prayer is given (11:06-12:26). Anne Neil is introduced (12:27-13:14). Before she begins speaking, Neil asks for a moment of silence (13:15-13:59). Neil begins with a question, “where is the prophetic voice,” and then she expresses how Mary (Jesus’ mother) and her cousin Elizabeth were unlikely candidates to share the coming of Jesus (14:00-21:00). Both Mary and Elizabeth prophesied Jesus’ salvation (21:01-24:59). Neil discusses how Mary’s prophetic song in the book of Luke reveals the struggles of those who live in poverty and she asks the question: “where is compassion and biblical justice?” (25:00-28:26). She explains that the three sources of prophetic voices are the third world, the black churches of America, and women who all are called to proclaim the Gospel (28:27-33:19). A word of prayer is given (33:20-34:50). Neil closes with the wish that everyone would leave with “hope and God’s good humor” (34:51-35:02).

- Edwin Luther Copeland was Visiting Professor of Missions. A call to remember certain members is made (0:00-1:18). A word of prayer is followed by a hymn (cut) (1:19-3:25). Dr. Copeland is introduced (3:26-8:43). An anthem is sung (8:44-11:28). The Scripture reading is from Luke 10 (11:29-13:18). Dr. Copeland begins his sermon with recounting the sending out of the seventy to spread the Gospel to the Gentile world and how they received the power to liberate evil (13:19-16:58). However, Jesus informs us not to rejoice over having the power over demonic sources (16:59-17:27). Dr. Copeland explains that rejoicing over these victories can lead to pride, conceit, and arrogance, which can ultimately lead to the manipulation of people (17:28-17:50). He further states that succumbing to such arrogance of power means joining the enemy (17:51-19:15). He mentions that because we are not always victorious over evil, we should not make victories a source of rejoicing (19:16-20:15). Though Jesus said nothing can hurt us, we can still experience the power of the enemy and defeat (20:16-22:06). Dr. Copeland quotes Charles W. Ransom, regarding not allowing others to dissuade you from the call of ministry (22:07-25:31). He expresses that we should rejoice that we are saved and that we are spreading the Word (25:32-26:19). The Word is our drink, food, air, and life and it should bring us joy (26:20-27:01). A word of prayer closes the service (27:02-27:25).

- Charles McMillian was the Director of Missions of the Raleigh Baptist Association. McMillian is announced as the chapel speaker (0:00-0:10). An opening hymn is played (0:11-5:28). The congregation sings a song of worship (cut) (5:29-5:40). Two Scripture passages (the first unknown and the second from 2 Kings 7:1-9) are read followed by a word of prayer (5:41-9:38). The choir sings a song of worship (9:39-12:38). A female missionary is welcomed and McMillian is introduced (12:39-14:48). McMillian begins with a word of gratitude towards SEBTS and its faculty and students (14:49-16:04). He focuses on the increase of a lack of missions, which has led to the disrespect towards ministers and denominational disharmony (16:05-17:37). He defines missions as “what we do in response to God’s commission to us.” (17:38-18:26). McMillian believes in Jesus’ second coming as well as judgment; however, he points out that there is also daily judgment (18:27-19:28). When we fail to prioritize missions, we are already being judged (19:29-19:43). McMillian compares the hopelessness that those in Samaria were experiencing due to a famine in 2 Kings 6 and 7 to today’s society (19:44-23:53). Despite this hopelessness, he mentions that there is good news: the gift of the Gospel (23:54-26:00). As Christians, we must be willing to risk everything to perform our responsibility of sharing this gift with the world (26:01-27:13). McMillian informs that unfortunately a loss of willingness to spread the Gospel has increased (28:38-29:38). He encourages individuals to find a reason to live through missions (29:39-31:04). He strongly states that churches need to make missions their priority and that hesitation leads to loss of missions (31:05-37:11). We must share the good news out of love as is required by the Great Commission (37:12-38:35). McMillian ends his address by comparing the story of not training his dog to the hesitation of not being involved in missions (38:36-41:23). The service concludes with a word of prayer and a hymn (41:25-46:35).

- Description:
- Thomas A. Bland was Professor of Christian Ethics and Sociology at SEBTS. Bland is announced as the chapel speaker (0:00-0:09). Two hymns are played (0:10-6:39). Scripture reading is provided, and a hymn is played (cut) (6:40-7:15). A second Scripture reading, Isaiah 6:1-13, is given (7:16-10:14). A word of prayer is given (10:15-14:02). Another hymn is played (cut) (14:03-14:08). Bland begins his sermon with a focus on performing our privilege and obligation to gather together for real worship (14:09-17:04). He contrasts real worship to a theater: we are the actors and God is the audience/recipient of our worshipping whereas those watching actors on stage are the recipients of their actions (17:05-19:11). Bland discusses Isaiah’s “vital encounter with God” in chapter six (19:12-22:25). Just as Isaiah became aware of his sinfulness in comparison to God’s holiness, so do we when we truly worship God (22:26-23:49). Bland speaks of a cleansing and a forgiveness of sins that we can experience during real worship (23:50-24:38). During real worship, we must respond to God’s call (24:39-26:08). When we continually come to worship, we need to renew this response to God’s commission so that we may share the experience of true worship (26:09-28:37). Bland concludes with a word of prayer (28:37-29:30).
