- 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 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).

- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of Psalm 130:6-7 (00:00-00:34), prayer (00:35-02:40), and a brief responsive reading (02:41-03:06). There was no introduction for Raymond Bryan Brown, but he was the Academic Dean of SEBTS and Professor of New Testament Interpretation. His sermon text centers on the freedom which Christians have in Christ, from Galatians 5:1 (03:07-06:23). Even though we as humans have the tendency to desire to show our mastery over certain areas of life, if freedom were up to us, it would never come at all. Freedom must not come from us, but it must come to us from Another (06:24-07:21). While we do not enjoy agreeing with the truth that we are not able to save, and while we admit an inward bend to roam away from the Living God, we must confess that we are truly free when we live by faith and love and are bound to Christ in dependence and obedience (07:22-14:49). There is a brief period of silence (14:50-15:24) before Brown ends his time in prayer (15:25-15:49).

- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of the sermon text, Luke 16:19-31 (00:00-02:55). Julius Carroll Trotter, Jr., Professor of Preaching and Speech at SEBTS, introduces himself, and personal identifiable information mentioned in the chapel service has been redacted (02:56-04:29). His message centers on the idea of personhood, specifically of personhood which has been overlooked as less important (04:30-09:49). This condition arises because men sometimes are motivated by a false sense of values, even religious traditions. These chasms between men are not placed by God or the will of man, but they simply exist (09:50-15:06). If we allow something that we hold onto to become a divisive factor between us and our fellow men, something happens to us as persons. When we treat or make another person into this or that, we become those things ourselves, losing part of our personhood in the process (15:07-19:50). The remedy for this, according to the parable, is the one who rose from the dead according to the Scriptures, even Jesus Christ; we sometimes fit into each of the men mentioned in the parable, but we must be the carriers of this gospel if anyone not knowing about it will come to know about it (19:51-25:07). He ends his time in prayer (25:08-25:47).

- Audio quality becomes poor near the end of the recording. Dr. Brevard S. Childs was a leading Old Testament scholar during the 20th century and Professor of Old Testament at Yale Divinity School. The service begins with organ music (00:00-05:05). The speaker gives a word of prayer (05:06-05:45). Brevard S. Childs is introduced as the Spring Lecturer (05:46-09:00). The title of Child’s lecture is the question "Is Biblical Theology Still Possible?" First, Childs addresses the side-lining of biblical theology for historical, philosophical, and dogmatic concerns and evaluation of the Scriptures (09:01-33:54). Second, Childs addresses two new approaches in using the Bible theologically, a sociological model and a philosophical model, and he argues that all these models fail because the Bible shapes the church, not the other way around (33:55-44:44). Finally, Childs admits that Biblical theology is not possible at the present time, but he has hope for the future that Biblical theology can once again be profitable through grassroots faithfulness of the church (44:45-54:55). The speaker gives a benediction at the end of the lecture (54:56-55:35). The service ends with organ music (55:36-59:54).

Childs is introduced as the Spring Lecturer (08:55-11:29). The title of Childs’ lecture is "Reading the Old Testament As Religious Literature.” He begins his lecture by addressing the influence of the traditional Protestant and historical-critical approaches in field of biblical studies, and he recognizes the shifting landscape of the field of biblical studies (11:30-21:49). Childs main message is about the evolution of the biblical text as a method of interpretation, and he examines three stories from the Hebrew Scriptures to show that the biblical text should be interpreted canonically in opposition to pagan religious practices (21:50-56:50). Lolley concludes the lecture with a word of prayer (56:51-57:27). The service ends with organ music (57:28-58:53).

- The service begins with the reading of Isaiah 40:31 and prayer (00:00-03:24), followed by announcements (03:25-9:59) and an introduction for Alan Compton concerning his education and ministry. He was a missionary and a representative of Radio and Television Works of Missionary Fields of Latin America (10:00-11:37). His message focuses on discipleship and the Great Commission, beginning by saying the Great Commission has lost emphasis in many Southern Baptist churches in America. Even its individualized interpretation over the years has resulted in talking about “what we are doing” instead of “what God is doing” (11:38-15:23). His text is taken from Acts 1, and he warns that discipleship has become the job of those called into professional ministry, when it is the necessary responsibility and call of God for every Christian. We can only have compassion for the world by being disciples of Jesus Christ, and we must be willing to go wherever God may call us (15:24-25:17). Obeying the Great Commission becomes less about what you do and more about the witness you become in Christ (25:18-27:29). We cannot depend on enthusiasm and faith by themselves to carry out this work, but we must depend on the Holy Spirit (27:30-34:43). He ends the service in prayer, but the words seem to cut out before he is done speaking (34:44-35:51).

- Description:
- The service opens with a reading from a poem by nineteenth century theologian, Walter Rauschenbush, entitled “The Little Post and Gate” (00:00-01:31) and a time of silent prayer to God before John Wright’s “Prayer for Theological Students” is vocalized (01:32-05:04). An introduction is given for the Reverend C. Wade Goldston, Chaplain at Louisburg College in Louisburg, NC, graduate of both Duke Divinity School and Yale University, and a pastor in North Carolina. He was currently returning to SEBTS to teach a course in Methodist Polity, and he was a member of the North Carolina Commission on Town and Country (05:05-05:51). Goldston intends to share from his own Christian witness (05:52-07:58). Firstly, Goldston mentions that we are not only made right with God by faith in Jesus, but we also continue to live by faith (07:59-11:33), ministering with our lives by faith (11:34-12:42). Secondly, he mentions that we can depend upon God to guide us and provide for us (12:43-15:51). Thirdly, God causes everything to work together for good to those who love Him (15:52-19:53). Finally, Goldston shares that we get what we give out (19:54-24:06). He then closes the message in prayer (24:07-24:55).

- The service opens with Scripture reads from Psalm 24:7, Isaiah 40:3, Isaiah 40:5, and 2 Corinthians 4:6, (00:00-00:43) followed by an introduction for C. Y. Dossey and Julian Hopkins. Dossey was from the Division of Evangelism of the Home Mission Board (now the North American Mission Board), and Hopkins was the Secretary of the Division of Evangelism of the Baptist Convention of North Carolina. Hopkins read the sermon text, 1 Corinthians 1:17-25, and prayed before Dossey gave the sermon (00:44-06:00). Dossey began his message by highlighting the effective witness of the first-century Christians, and he challenges his listeners to have effectual ministries as well (6:01-07:10). First, we need a renewal of authoritative preaching, proclaiming what the Bible says in a way where people can understand it (07:11-09:03). He mentions that we must not become a Biblical critic or attempt to defend the Bible, but only preach the Bible well, not cleverly. He declares that the reason why some Baptists have chased the "tongues movement" is because we have failed to preach accurately about the Holy Spirit (09:04-13:38). He emphasizes the importance of experiencing Christ's power now instead of relying too heavily on Christianity's rich past or on Christianity's rich future (13:39-17:19). He also says there must be a renewal of the eschatological emphasis in our preaching accompanied by courage, and we must be willing to disturb people with the boldness of the Biblical message by holding some "over Hell until they can smell fire and brimstone" (17:20-24:23). He closes in prayer (24:24-25:00).

- A brief time of worship is cut out of the audio (00:00-00:08), a responsive reading of Selection 93 is read aloud (00:09-02:14), and another brief time of worship is shortened on the audio (02:15-02:52). There is no introduction for David Mein, but he was a Visiting Professor of Missions and President of North Brazil Baptist Theological Seminary. His message is about “the Holy Spirit and human experience” (02:53-03:03). He notes the present condition in the world, and especially in America, both among Christians and non-Christians, of pessimism and defeat; he concludes these spirits are present because the Holy Spirit is not real and vital in most of our lives, noting that some refer to the Holy Spirit in the neuter gender, some with emotional excesses such as in some branches of Pentecostalism, and some as mere theological topics of conversation (03:04-04:16). Dr. Mein proceeds to testify to his own experience of the reality and vitality of the Holy Spirit in his own life, first by identifying himself with the words of Paul’s own self-reflection in Romans 7 (04:17-06:41). He mentions from Ephesians 3:16 that the same Holy Spirit who puts sin to death in us also strengthens the inner man and, according to Ephesians 4:13, leads us to mature manhood, to the measure of the fullness of the stature of Christ (06:42-07:20). Through the Holy Spirit, Mein says that God’s love is poured into our hearts, according to Galatians 5:22; apart from Him, we cannot love man or God as we ought (07:21-09:26). Next, Mein says that through the Holy Spirit we come into possession of that hope which produces in us assurance, quoting both Ephesians 1:14 and Romans 15:13, among other passages of Old Testament Scripture (09:27-12:22). He ends with a concession that as we walk in the Spirit, the Holy Spirit would be both real and vital to us, that He would give us victory over our sinful natures, that He would pour God’s love into our hearts, and that He would give us the hope that produces assurance (12:23-12:51). He ends with a prayer to the Holy Spirit to kindle love in the hearts of his listeners (12:52-13:40).

- Description:
- The service begins with a brief prayer, (00:00-00:25) and although there was no formal introduction for Edwin Calhoun Osburn, he was the Librarian at SEBTS. He begins his message by casting the minds of his listeners to think on God rightly according to the Scriptures (00:48-02:58), reading aloud Psalm 145 (02:59-04:55) and leading the responsive reading of Selection 62 (04:56-07:30). He mentions the hymn, “My Father’s World,” pointing to the day when Jesus Christ will reconcile God and creation into harmonious relationship (07:31-08:31). He then transitions into the responsive reading of Selection 30, entitled “God our security” (08:32-11:04). Continuing to focus on God as our refuge and salvation, Osburn transitions to reading aloud Psalm 37 (11:05-14:16). He concludes by reminding his listeners that in God we find refuge, adoring Him for His mighty works; also, we find in God assurance and hope (14:17-14:35). He then closes with a hymn, of which the audio is cut out (14:36-14:39), and a recitation of the Lord’s Prayer from Matthew 6:9-13 (14:40-15:13).

- The service opens with the reading of Habakkuk 2:20 (00:00-00:13), followed by a period of silence and instrumental music (00:14-01:31) and the mention of a time of worship from hymn #312 (01:32-01:35). An opening prayer is given (01:36-02:03), and the speaker, Frank Wood, is introduced. He was at that time a Middler student at SEBTS, having graduated from Wake Forest College in 1964 with honors in psychology and having been serving at the time of this recording as pastor of Centerville Baptist Church located in the Tar River Association near Louisburg, North Carolina; he also was serving as editor of the student newspaper, “The Inquiry” (02:04-03:16). The chapel anthem is sung (03:30-05:18). Frank Wood begins with a brief prayer (06:09-06:23) and reads the sermon text, 1 John 1:1-4 aloud before preaching through it (06:24-07:26). Wood points out that John is speaking of some cosmic truth which he has experienced with his senses and which is the basis of fellowship between humans and between God and man (7:27-12:42). Understanding the text in reverse, Wood proceeds to mention how we are without joy when we do not have or know Christ, who was from the beginning; also, we are without true fellowship with each other and with God when we do not have fellowship with Christ (12:43-17:15). He sums the text up by saying that the divine intrusion and the gospel itself is not found in words, but in the person of Christ (17:16-26:31). He closes the message with prayer (26:32-27:43).

- The service begins with the reading of Luke 1:68 (00:00-00:09) and prayer (00:10-00:46). Then the congregation reads aloud a responsive reading taken from Psalm 84 (00:47-02:37). An introduction is given for John M. Lewis, the pastor of First Baptist Church in Raleigh, NC, outlining his educational and ministerial background; he has been introduced as the “thinking man’s Baptist” (02:38-04:03). John M. Lewis begins his message by reading the Phillip’s translation of 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 (04:04-05:07), and his message is “Wanted: A New Theological Map for Baptists” (05:08-06:32). He believes that Baptists have stressed certain distinctives at the depreciation or neglect of others, and his message centers on balancing Baptist distinctives for effective future ministry (06:33-08:56). Firstly, Baptists have emphasized individuality within Christianity; while Christianity is personal, it is not private but communal. He urges that the separation of church and state in America has led to a separation of secular and sacred, causing the church’s work in the public square to become that much more difficult to manifest (08:57-17:21). Secondly, Baptists have emphasized “once saved, always saved,” which Lewis argues has wreaked havoc on our ethical responsibility and has overlooked the progressive and futuristic realities of our salvation (“being saved” and “will be saved”). He also discusses the Baptist view of denouncing the Catholic practice of transubstantiation in Communion while overlooking our practical transubstantiational view of salvation, wherein we believe we are changed metaphysically but not in reality (17:22-22:47). Thirdly, Baptists have emphasized that Jesus Christ is Lord of the local church, but we have denied practically that “the body of Christ” refers to all of our brothers and sisters everywhere in the world (22:48-26:05). Lastly, Lewis suggests that the Baptist exaltation of the Bible as the “Word of God” needs to find its practical and theological home in the person of Jesus Christ, who is “the Word of God” (26:06-28:09); he also suggests that the Bible will be “a dead book” to others until they understand that the Bible is not just telling how God spoke and worked then, but also now in our own time (28:10-32:33). He then closes in prayer (32:34-33:31).

- 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).

- The service begins with the reading of Isaiah 40:31 (00:00-00:18), followed by instrumental music (00:19-02:00). An opening prayer is offered to God (02:10-04:38). An introduction is given for the Reverend Max Eller. He was a Lieutenant Commander in the United States Navy Chaplaincy. He graduated from Wake Forest College and SEBTS in 1956, and he began his chaplaincy in 1958. Before this, he served as a pastor in North Carolina (04:39-05:31). He begins with general thanks for the opportunity to speak and then reads Matthew 10:1, 5-8 (05:32-07:29). His message centers on the following two aspects which he considers to be most important in the ministry of the gospel: the proclamation of the gospel of Jesus and the compassionate ministry which we must carry out as we proclaim that ministry in the world (07:30-07:52). He transitions into a story about Count Zinzendorf’s prayerful reflections on the work of Christ and the response we will have for Christ as a result (07:53-09:25), and he uses that story to recapture his previous two aspects of gospel ministry (09:26-12:24) and place an emphasis on the cross of Christ in gospel ministry (12:25-15:22). Considering what we will do for Christ in response to His death on the cross for us, Max Eller quotes Matthew 28:19 and the opening passage from Matthew 10, going on to place the question in specific relevant contexts around the world (15:23-22:41). He then closes with prayer (22:42-23:11), and the service ends with singing (23:12-24:00). The last minute of the audio is silent (24:01-25:04).
