The service begins with music and transitions into the first of two addresses, entitled “Trouble-Shooters For God.” In the first address, Eva Marie Kennard first outlines the purpose of the natural beauty of the created world as being designed to lead us to marvel at God, and she focuses next on being trouble-shooters for God. These people are those who find mechanical breakdowns and repair them to their original working order (00:00-11:39). In the second address entitled “The Trouble With the World,” Ross Coggins outlines this trouble with sin, displaying its effects in major world issues such as a hardening of the categories we have created (slavery and obesity), emotional disturbances (suicide and the need to go to war to prove strength), and metaphysical myopia (not knowing where God is or what He is doing).

Next, James Y. Green follows up the initial address with an extension of the same title, “Faith Dispersed,” in which he calls his listeners to “jump in” to the world of God’s global mission (11:01-17:34). He mentions pre-requisites, essential presuppositions, and an understanding of suffering that we must have before we can “go out” on mission (17:35-19:13). We must understand not only who we are as Christians but also the social structures we are going into; we must know the presupposition that God is working actively in the world outside of the walls of a church building (19:14-24:59). Also, we must know the value of what we are sharing, not only in personal morality but also in concern for the world (25:00-35:21). We must go out in dispersion in response to the powerful sending God, even the Lord Jesus Christ; our dispersion must be done in relationship with the living God and in relationship with the community of the saints (35:22-40:46).
