- Lewis Addison Drummond was the 4th president of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary and Professor of the History and Theology of Evangelism. Introductory music is played (0:00-1:24). The service begins with prayer (1:24-2:44). Further music is played (2:44-5:23). A welcome is extended to the students in the 40th year of the seminary, and recognition is given to the presidential advisory council and the faculty (5:29-8:16). There is a reading of 2 Chronicles 7:12-14 and James 5:7-8 (8:25-10:10). The Citation of Faculty Excellence is presented to Professor Thomas Albert Bland (10:21-13:30). Using the concept of renewal from 2 Chronicles 7, Dr. Drummond tells the story of Yale University’s history and spiritual awakenings that took place as an illustration of what God can do at educational institutions (13:32-19:04). He asks what people really want and directs the question to the students as they begin their educational journeys. He suggests that what each person desires is an encounter and renewal from God (19:04-21:51). He then provides insight into what this renewal may look like. Spiritual renewal would be brought by the Spirit of God, bring awareness and sensitivity to sin, offer forgiveness, raise awareness of the necessity of complete commitment to God, and produce a life of genuine ministry with the gifts of the spirit (21:51-29:30). He emphasizes that all of these things are for God’s glory (29:30-30:30). In order to see this renewal Dr. Drummond says the audience must seek God’s movement and talk about God’s work in each other’s lives (30:30-32:56). He then gives a final challenge of spiritual renewal and prayer to the seminary (32:56-35:34). Dr. Drummond concludes with a story of Winston Churchill’s “Never Give in Speech” and calls the audience to hold onto God until renewal is seen (35:34-38:03). A final presentation of music is given (38:08-42:30). Convocation is closed with prayer (42:30-43:55).

- Description:
- David R. Beck was Professor of New Testament and Greek. The service begins with President Paige Patterson introducing David R. Beck as the chapel speaker (00:00-02:07). Beck begins his sermon with a few jokes about being called last minute to preach, and he reads Ephesians 6:10-20 (02:08-06:32). Beck reads a passage from C.S. Lewis’ “The Screwtape Letters,” and he states that living a Christian life is a spiritual battle (06:33-10:04). Beck first point is God has already won the victory over the adversary, and the adversary is Satan, not flesh and blood (10:05-15:35). His second point is that God calls us to stand firm in the spiritual battle (15:36-19:04). Beck walks through the armor presented by Paul in Ephesians 6, and he points out that prayer is the most important part staying strong under spiritual warfare (19:05-36:30). Patterson thanks Beck for delivering his message, and he ends the service with a word of prayer (36:31-38:43).
