2. SEBTS Chapel - Jack Stearns October 13, 1988
- Description:
- Jack Stearns was the Director of the Mid-Atlantic Region of the Association for Clinical Pastoral Education. Stearns is announced as the Chapel speaker (0:00-0:14). A hymn is played (0:14-3:15). A word of prayer is given, followed by a hymn (3:16-6:40). Guest visitors for Clinical Pastoral Education Day are welcomed and Stearns is introduced (6:41-11:36). A hymn is played (cut) (11:37-11:42). Reading from Luke 10:25-37, Stearns focuses on the “good neighbor” image of ministry (11:43-16:28). He speaks of the internal difference of the three neighbors from the Scripture that caused the different responses to the injured man (16:29-17:30). Perhaps the priest and the Levite were preoccupied with their cultural duties or other matters (17:31-20:34). The Samaritan showed compassion, implying that he was a man willing to care and a man who had experienced brokenness (20:35-22:03). Stearns then mentions that we all have a little of the priest and Levite in us (22:04-23:37). He also suggests that maybe the Samaritan was fulfilling the law to love God and others by showing compassion (23:38-24:05). Believers have a common bond that causes us to come to together to answer God’s call to ministry (24:06-26:27). Stearns ends with a final word on the good neighbor image: we are one body that God calls on to minister to others (26:28-28:21). A word of prayer concludes the service (28:22-30:37).

He says that it is important for Christians to remain involved in politics because the country needs those Christians values (14:29-19:00).
