- Description:
- Joseph B. Bethea was the Raleigh District Superintendent of the United Methodist Church and a graduate of Gammon Theological Seminary. The service begins with organ music (0:00-3:49). Prayer concerns are shared with the congregation and there is a moment of prayer (3:50-5:07). Joseph Bethea is introduced as the chapel speaker (5:08-5:45). Bethea reads a passage of Scripture from Ephesians 3 (5:08-6:52). Bethea gives his thanks for Southeastern Seminary and has a moment of prayer (6:53-9:24). Bethea speaks of Paul’s emphasis for the believers in Ephesus to grow in maturity, expressing that believers in present day should follow the same advice (9:25-15:00). He suggests that to do this, Christians must live more like Christ, though the circumstances are different from when Jesus lived (15:01-17:25). He argues that Christians must practice religion without adulterating and turning it down (17:26-21:30). He argues that Christians should put their emphasis on love (21:31-27:18).
