1. SEBTS Chapel - David R. Beck November 15, 1995

Description:
David R. Beck was Professor of New Testament and Greek. He opens his sermon with an encounter he had with a statue of Jesus in the belly of Brontosaurus (00:00-03:47). Beck reads from John 12:20-36, and he first says that Greeks addressing Jesus is a trigger point for his ministry showing that the gospel is for the whole world (03:48-08:01). Most Beck’s sermon centers on the ultimate purpose of Jesus’ ministry that the Greek who came to him did not understand, that he was to be the one who would take away their sins (08:02-31:16). Beck ends the service with a word of prayer (31:17-33:06).

2. SEBTS Chapel - David R. Beck April 22, 1998

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).

4. SEBTS Faculty Lecture - David R. Beck November 6, 2002

Description:
David R. Beck was Professor of New Testament and Greek. He begins his lecture by speaking about the research he has been doing on his sabbatical and the topic of his lecture, evangelism in Luke-Acts (00:00-15:34). Beck first examines the genre of Luke-Acts as an historical narrative, and he says that both parts are gospel-centered (15:35-20:15). Beck walks through many passages that speak about Jesus’ evangelistic proclamation in Luke and the evangelism of the apostles in Acts, and he concludes that evangelism was an intentional part of life in the early church, and it was powered by the will and sovereignty of God (20:16-50:36).
