Claude Y. Stewart was Associate Professor of Theology. The service begins with organ music (00:00-04:08). The speaker gives a word of prayer (04:09-05:37). The choir sings a song of worship (05:38-09:40). Stewart begins his sermon by reading from Matthew 19 (09:41-12:26). Stewart’s sermon is about the story of the rich young ruler in light of the season of Lent, and he states that obedience to Christ and transformation by him only comes through giving up our possession in the world (12:27-26:44). He concludes his sermon with a modern parable about a boy who took his old teddy bear to Boston to hold on to during his eye surgery (26:45-31:16).
