- Description:
- The service begins with a word of introduction (00:00-01:07), the reading of Matthew 6:5-13 (01:08-02:40), a prayer request and general information (02:41-04:28), and prayer (04:29-05:40). An introduction is given for the speaker, Ernest Mayfield Ligon, who was the Director of the Character Research Project at Union College in Schenectady, NY (05:41-07:05). His message is the first of three in a series on the Lord’s Prayer. He begins by relating the spiritual life of the world to the “darkness” of Genesis 1:2 but encourages the audience that God called light into existence in Genesis 1:3. He emphasizes the importance of Jesus’s discipleship of the twelve during His earthly ministry (07:06-14:36). This message will focus only on “Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed by thy name” (14:37-15:03). He emphasizes the importance of “making decisions” and “responsibility” for the upcoming generations in their discipleship (15:04-18:38), describing the topic in terms of raising children (18:39-26:36). He ends in prayer (26:37-27:24).

- Description:
- The service begins with prayer (00:00-03:49). A welcome and recognition of certain people from the Women’s Missionary Union (WMU) are given (03:50-05:39), and the speaker, Dr. Baker James Cauthen, is welcomed and introduced (05:40-08:06). He was the Executive Director of the Foreign Mission Board (now the International Mission Board). The service continues with choral singing (08:07-09:56). He begins by reminding the congregation of the seminary’s missional purpose from its inception and its level place among the other five seminaries (09:57-13:35). He stresses that the central theme of missions is seeking God in prayer (13:36-19:06). The Scripture text for the sermon is 2 Corinthians 5:18-19, entitled “the Ministry of Reconciliation” (19:07-20:55). Man’s basic need is to be reconciled to God, and we ought to leverage our means which we spend on buildings and programs to advance the gospel to the nations (20:56-34:57). He asks those in the congregation to consider their service to God as extending far instead of staying near, affirming God does call His people to both realms (34:58-53:18). He ends his message by talking about the seriousness of viewing oneself as a missionary, both near and far away (53:19-1:03:11).

- Description:
- The service begins with prayer (00:00-03:54). Dr. Binkley introduces the speaker, William W. Leathers, Jr., who was the pastor of First Baptist Church in Henderson, NC (03:55-06:22). His message focuses on an event in the life of David when he sought refuge with his enemy, the Philistines, due to low faith, from 1 Samuel 30:6 (06:23-10:02). He discusses three paradoxes/alternatives/dilemmas which frequently face people: the matter of faith or frustration (10:03-11:17), the matter of prayer or paralysis (11:18-13:08), and the alternative of obedience or obstinancy (13:09-15:00). He recalls the persuasive preaching of George Pruitt, in which he said, “obedience is the song for a thousand victories” (15:01-17:31). He ends his time in prayer (17:32-18:12).

- Description:
- The service opens with encouragements to prayer from responsive reading #46 (00:34-02:33), followed by a public reading of Psalm 136:1 (02:44-02:51) and an opening prayer (02:52-04:57). John Terrill Wayland’s message is about the private devotional life of the Christian (04:58-05:07). He begins his message by talking about the shoeless town which is ironically “known” for its shoes, and he compares that with a people who claim to be known for prayer and religion yet lack those basic practices personally (05:08-11:07). He mentions that not only is prayer a lesson to be learned, but it is a friendship to be cultivated (11:08-14:45). Lastly, he mentions that prayer is a lifestyle to be lived, of which Paul’s key verse on the subject could be Galatians 2:20 (14:46-17:30). Wayland ends his message with a short prayer, reciting Philippians 4:7 (17:31-17:41).

- Description:
- Various verses of the Bible are read (00:19-01:10), and an opening prayer occurs (01:26-02:44). Hymn #340, “The Prayer Hymn” is sung in worship (03:00-05:37). There is no introduction for Dr. Green, but he was Professor of Hebrew and Old Testament at SEBTS. Dr. Green begins his message with a contemplation of whether or not we as God’s children may bring our personal needs/concerns to Him, concluding that we can (05:38-08:05). He also mentions the distinctive quality of his subject, intercessory prayer—involving not only our needs but primarily the needs of others—as he cites Romans 8:26 to say that the Holy Spirit also intercedes on our behalf to the Father (08:06-11:25). Dr. Green lists some prerequisites of intercessory prayer, such as three theological foundations: we come from God and are utterly dependent on Him in this life; we are unified to one another in Christ even if we are not present with each other; and we belong to God as His children (11:26-21:16) Lastly, Dr. Green speaks about the price of intercessory prayer, including its intensely social aspect and its highly unselfish nature (21:17-21:50). Intercessory prayer for someone else is incomplete without praying God’s will to be done in yourself as well (21:51-26:41). He then closes the service in prayer (26:42-27:11).
