- The service begins with the reading of Psalm 122:1 and Psalm 43:3a (00:00-00:33) and prayer (00:34-02:03). There was no introduction for Olin Trivette Binkley, but he was Academic Dean and Professor of Christian Sociology and Ethics at SEBTS. He begins by focusing on the integrity of servants of God in a theological school amidst the pressures and problems in a very complex and dynamic society (02:04-03:55). He draws attention to three basic convictions: first, the Living God knows us as we are and loves us (03:56-04:20); second, God, who offers salvation, demands something of us that is consonant with His nature (04:21-04:37); third, God has revealed Himself to us as the God of mercy and truth (04:38-05:16). He then speaks about the two factors of interpersonal relationships in seminary: first, honesty in straightforward speech (05:17-07:22); second, the integrity of mind and conscience involves affectionate loyalty to whole persons and to the whole fellowship of the school, having compassion, humility, and courage (07:23-17:04). He ends with prayer (17:05-17:37).

- Description:
- The service begins with prayer (00:00-01:45). Olin Trivette Binkley, the second president of SEBTS, addresses this chapel congregation according to its founding and direction, based in 2 Timothy 3:17 (01:46-06:57). He discusses that “man of God” was used of Moses and is used today to refer to the quality of life of those in Christian leadership. Two factors are noticed about authentic ministers for Jesus Christ (06:58-09:12). Firstly, a mature (complete) minister has a personal knowledge of God accompanied by a concern for the distresses of His fellows (09:13-12:19). Secondly, a mature minister has a knowledge of men, including an understanding of their patterns of behavior as well as their potentialities, through intercessory prayer (12:20-25:25). He ends his time in prayer (25:26-26:05).

- The service begins with the reading of Psalm 27:14 (00:00-00:10) and 3 John 1:1-8 (00:11-02:01). No introduction was given for Olin Trivette Binkley, but he was Professor of Christian Sociology and Ethics and Academic Dean of SEBTS. Focusing on 3 John 1:8, Binkley asks how students in a theological seminary might help the faculty to be productive scholars and creative teachers (02:02-03:49). Firstly, students may do this by affirming participation in a deeper knowledge of the truth about God and its relation to human decisions. They must join the professors in academic scholarship and see both parties as desiring to know the truth (03:50-06:59). Secondly, students and faculty must keep the channels of communication open with each other (07:00-09:54). Thirdly, students must show a readiness to recognize the perils confronting servants of God, namely three: accommodating the gospel to the culture, subordinating what God demands of us to what man expects of us, and practicing cruelty in human relations (09:55-13:23).
