- Description:
- The speaker and congregation gathered reads aloud the purpose statement of SEBTS (00:00-00:43), the speaker reads Psalm 124:8 and Psalm 100:4b-5 (00:44-01:17), and the speaker prays twice (01:18-02:19). Those gathered read a responsive reading together (02:20-03:25), and the speaker reads various texts of Scripture aloud (03:26-05:40). There was no introduction for H. Eugene McLeod, but he was Assistant Professor of Bibliography at SEBTS. He begins by describing the seminary’s high priority on chapel and gathering for corporate worship weekly because corporate worship is pivotal in the development of theological education (05:41-09:40). After describing the nature of the community of a collegiate or seminarial environment, McLeod discusses that community is an essential component in the development of students which must be balanced with schoolwork (09:41-14:55). Unless students attend to the Word preached to them, they will show a flight away from both God and self (14:56-17:57). McLeod concludes by reading from Robert W. Duke on his article “Seminary Worship” (17:58-19:24). He ends with a silent time of response for self-giving (19:25-20:15) and prayer (20:16-20:30). A responsive reading is read (20:31-21:53), and a final prayer is given (21:54-22:46). McLeod gives a final benediction (22:47-23:25).

- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of Psalm 95:1-3 (00:00-00:36), a prayer (00:37-02:44), and responsive reading #26 (02:45-05:04). There was no introduction for Ben Sigel Johnson, but he was Professor of Music at SEBTS. His address focuses on music and worship in the place of chapel and the local church (05:05-05:39). He references the worship mentioned in the Old Testament Scriptures to emphasize that leading others in worship through musical instruments and singing has the same focus now as then—to bring the glory of the Lord into the house of God (05:40-07:22). He makes a brief announcement about the need for more choir members for both the men’s choir and the mixed choir (07:23-08:17), and he also employs suggestions from John Wesley’s words for the congregation in worship (08:18-10:35). Johnson adds an additional congregational admonition for SEBTS, synchronizing the singing across the entire chapel based on the delay between the played note and the received sound (10:36-12:02). He ends his time by leading the congregation in singing hymn #182 [no audio] before the service ends with instrumental music (12:03-13:24).

- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of Psalm 95:6-7 (00:00-00:29), a mention of singing (00:30-00:44), and prayer (00:45-03:42). Luke 2:41-52 is read aloud (03:43-06:07), and another mention of singing occurs (06:08-06:27). There was no introduction for John W. Carlton, but he was Professor of Preaching at SEBTS. He begins his message speaking about the relationship between the basic motivation to action within us, curiosity, and the basic pull in the opposite direction, reverence (06:28-11:54). [The sound needs to be turned up during 09:25-10:32.] Reverence without curiosity is both blind and docile, and we should always leave the window of our souls open for divine surprise (11:55-13:34). The second answer, curiosity without reverence, is more characteristic of our time. This direction is like blind reverence which asks no questions, resulting in the chief possible results of brilliance without wisdom, power without conscience, and knowledge without love (13:35-16:05). Carlton then uses a few Scriptural references about God’s character to illustrate the proper relationship between reverence and curiosity (16:06-20:39) before ending his time in prayer (20:40-21:49).

- Description:
- There is silence (00:00-00:54) before the service opens in prayer (00:55-02:50). There is an introduction for Dr. James R. Moseley concerning his educational, working, and missional background. He was a medical missionary to Nigeria and became Seminary Physician, presenting his address entitled “My Personal Testimony” (02:51-05:12). He begins with cordialities and general information about his medical service at SEBTS (05:13-08:28). He admits not to know anything about theology or about church polity, but he intends to testify to God’s work in his life as he can best interpret it to be so (08:29-09:13). He was first called to missions in 1948, but he fought it and did not fully surrender to it until he heard a sermon about how he could make his best contribution to life (09:14-15:50). He worked with the Foreign Mission Board (now the International Mission Board) to go to Nigeria as a medical missionary, and he spends time telling key stories of his time there which impacted his life (15:51-27:47). The original speaker then comments on Dr. Mosely’s remarkable character traits to show even more of his authenticity (27:48-28:30) before concluding the service in prayer (28:31-28:54). Another prayer is offered in the audio (29:26-30:20).

- Description:
- Alton Hood, MD, was a missionary volunteer to Thailand, and this address was presented during the Student Coordinating Council chapel. An opening Scripture reading of Psalm 67:1-3 precedes an opening prayer (00:51-02:08) A brief time of worship in song occurs (02:09-07:53). An introduction was given for Hood as a native of North Carolina who received his Doctor of Medicine degree from the University of Tennessee and served in Washington state among Native Americans for two years (07:54-08:59). Another brief time of worship in song occurs (09:00-12:46). Alton Hood opens his message in prayer (12:59-13:38). He stresses that he will not present a formal academic paper; rather, he desires to share his own life of ministry to encourage his listeners (13:39-16:42). Strikingly, he mentions that they are not going to Thailand primarily to share the Gospel with medicine or because of Christ's command; instead, he grounds his reason for going in the direction he has (the call he was given) to go from the Holy Spirit (16:43-19:43). He believes that every act of healing is divine, and that work for the Lord either here or there is equally meaningful (19:44-20:50). Dr. Hood emphasizes two certain truths: he knows where he is going, and he knows that all will be well for him along the way, because of Romans 8:28 (20:51-25:22). He talks concisely about the relationships between worry and faith, worry and concern, and worry and prayer (25:23-27:23). He closes with a quote from Jim Elliot: "He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose" (27:24-27:55). In his closing prayer, he thanks God for those who have equipped the saints and asks for blessing from God for the work ahead in God's mission (27:56-28:26). The first stanza of the hymn “Ye Servants of God, Your Master Proclaim” closes the sermon (28:27-29:08).

- Description:
- Instrumental music plays (0:00-01:59), and an opening prayer is offered to God (02:04-04:36). Worship continues with “God of Grace and God of Glory” (04:50-08:26), and a responsive reading from “Selection 96” occurs between the speaker and the audience (08:27-10:12). An introduction is given for other SEBTS faculty briefly before Dr. Copeland delivers his message (10:13-13:00). No formal introduction was given for Dr. Copeland, but he was Professor of Missions at SEBTS, and his message is on the person of Albert Schweitzer. Dr. Copeland begins his message with the words of Norman Cousins, a great friend and admirer of Schweitzer, a missionary to Africa, on the account of his death (13:01-17:33). Dr. Copeland outlines Schweitzer’s controversial character, offering criticisms that could be made concerning his pantheistic outlook on God, his neglect of the reality of divine atonement, and his representation of an age of paternalism in missions (17:34-20:14). However, Dr. Copeland affirms that these criticisms do not effectively detract from the impact of his life, including his positions against conformism, materialism, and inhumanity, his intellectual genius and mastery of certain fields, his faith that outshone his theology, his life that outshone his faith, and his successful efforts to block nineteenth century liberalism’s attempts to remake Jesus in the form of the nineteenth century as opposed to the first century (20:15-23:01). Dr. Copeland quotes Dr. Pelican’s words concerning Schweitzer’s answer to criticisms made concerning his life and theology. The quote communicates the relevant and relatable style in which the Gospels were written as opposed to the less relatable and existential style of Proverbs (23:02-25:08). Dr. Copeland ends by reading a quote from Dr. Schweitzer himself which emphasizes the authoritative real version of Jesus—the historical Jesus—who calls those who follow Him to be “other than” the world instead of “like” the world and who reveals Himself to both the simple and wise without regard of persons (25:09-29:23). Dr. Copeland closes his message with a brief prayer (29:31-29:49).

- Description:
- The service opens by the reading of Luke 4:16-20a (0:00-01:33), followed by a mention of worship to “When I Survey the Wondrous Cross,” but the music cuts out (01:34-02:04). An opening prayer is given (02:05-05:02). Garland A. Hendricks, the Director of Field Work, begins his message with a story from New Delhi, India in 1959 concerning the Caste system there. He describes the condition in India concerning their poverty, their Caste system, their way of living, and their economic conditions, affirming that “India is a democracy growing up” (05:03-11:01). He then transitions to the year 1960 in New Delhi, as democracy was making progress in India and arising problems were evidence of growth and development there (11:02-12:40). He then transitions to the year 1965 (the current year) in North Carolina at SEBTS, recording that Christians face problems even here, where hunger, starvation, and warfare are not every-day concerns (12:41-14:51). He requests of God that He would use SEBTS as a center to spread the gospel across the world as His people there continue to abide in Jesus Christ (14:52-18:07). Hendricks then offers a closing prayer, asking for sustaining grace to the people of God for the work ahead of them (18:08-18:27).

- 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).

- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of Psalm 19:7-9 (00:00-00:41) and prayer (00:52-02:04). A brief introduction is given for Jim Allen, the pastor of the speaker, Robert Morgan (02:05-02:31). Jim Allen introduces Robert Morgan according to his Christian testimony, education, and working background. He served 5 consecutive terms as senator of Harnett County in North Carolina, and he was the Attorney General of the State of North Carolina. The title of his address is “The Christian and Politics” (02:32-04:29). He does not believe that the church should involve itself in protestant politics nor divide its congregation by taking dogmatic positions on political issues; however, he does believe the church should seek to find Christian answers for the problems that confront us in daily life and also in government circles. There is no prohibition between a mixture of politics and religion in the Constitution, and Christians cannot keep the two separated (04:30-16:02). To do this, we must show charitable compassion, a Christian voice in politics, and encouragement for governmental leadership (16:03-28:56). He ends his time in prayer (28:57-29:14), and the service ends with low instrumental music (29:15-29:23).

- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of Psalm 118:24 (00:00-00:19), responsive reading #29 (00:20-01:57), and prayer (01:58-02:45). No introduction was given for Sherman Lewis, but he was a student at SEBTS. His message centers on Ezekiel 37:1-14, and he points out that the dead bones refer to the Jews in captivity in Babylon (02:46-06:21). He then relates this “deadness” to our current churches, in which many pastors simply desire to preach a sermon on Sunday but do not desire to cultivate the lives of those in their care (06:22-08:52). He also relates this “deadness” to the existence of racism as that which is not living—not behaving according to God’s good design. In this, he optimistically focuses on the sovereign rule of God and the promise of the restoration of these evils when love and peace will reign on the earth (08:53-11:44). We must be ready to deal with the difficult and oftentimes avoided circumstances in life as Christians who are bold because they know the Living God. We must be able to say “thus sayeth the Lord” in our own time (11:45-14:06). Lewis closes his time in prayer (14:07-15:59).
