- There was no formal introduction for G. Avery Lee, but he was pastor of St. Charles Avenue Baptist Church in New Orleans, Louisiana, and focused his ministry on college/seminary campuses. He made dedicated commitments to bettering race relations and served as Chairman of the Christian Life Commission from 1961-62. He continues his sermon from February 8, 1966, talking about God’s good news of healing for the brokenhearted from Psalm 51:17 (00:00-03:55). Jesus spoke about the New Birth of a life broken by sin as one of His most important focuses, and God desires that we have a broken and contrite heart to be forgiven of our sins (03:56-09:08). David used three Hebrew words to describe his sin against God with Bathsheba. Firstly, peshah communicated his sin was deliberate rebellion against something God strictly had forbidden. Secondly, havon communicated a perversion or distortion from breaking God’s Law. Thirdly, hatah communicated a missing of the mark or goal of what is pleasing to God (09:09-11:02). David also used three words to describe vividly the experience of forgiveness. Firstly, mahah communicated a blotting out or wiping off. Secondly, kabas communicated a washing away. Thirdly, tahēr communicated a declaring to be clean (11:03-11:38). Lee describes more clearly what true contrition and brokenheartedness looks like Biblically, affirming the good news that God is able to heal the brokenhearted and that God uses broken things to make things new. Lee closes his time in prayer, but the prayer is not recorded (11:39-31:19). A brief rewind occurs, and a low shrill follows the audio to its end (26:00-31:19).

- Description:
- The service opens with responsive reading #73 in the hymnals (00:00-02:50) and prayer (02:51-06:36). No introduction is given for Sherrill G. Stevens, but he was Instructor in New Testament at SEBTS. His message begins with the subject of crusades for territorial conquest, including the Israelite conquering of the Holy Land and the infamous Crusades of the Church. He mentions that the Crusades have not been a mixed evil or purely beneficial for the Church and the world, but they have been tainted by man’s sinfulness while remaining a picture of committed devotion (07:26-10:53). While the Crusades have been tainted, Stevens believes that Christians should still accept the principle of crusading, waging a vigorous campaign in both our own lives as well as in society for transformation (10:54-14:55). After reading Philippians 3:7-11, he says that Christians should not wage territorial war but war on sin. In this sense, Christians ought to always be crusaders (14:56-17:31). He ends the service in prayer (17:32-18:21), and the audio ends with instrumental music (18:21-18:33).
