    SEBTS Missionary Day Address - Caralie Brown January 31, 1989
    Description:
    Caralie Brown was a retired teacher and gave this address for “Missionary Day.” Brown is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:12). Hymns are played (the second one is cut) (0:13-4:08). A word of prayer is given (4:09-5:07). Dr. George Braswell welcomes the congregation and reads Acts 2:37-47 (5:08-8:03). The choir sings a hymn (8:04-9:58). Kay Culpepper introduces Brown (9:59-12:26). Brown thanks the congregation and speaks of the need for a new church in northwest Raleigh (12:27-16:17). She was initially against developing a new church, but eventually God caused her to have a change of heart and she became involved with this new church (16:18-18:29). Referring to Acts 2, she focuses on not planting a church, but being a church (18:30-19:30). Brown reveals that the Gospel, the mission field, and each other are all that are truly needed for a church (19:31-20:53). She provides four beliefs that were taught at the new church in Raleigh: 1) Acts 2:37-47 will serve as a guide, 2) men and women are equal, 3) everyone is a minister, and 4) youth participation (20:54-23:50). The new church grew in spirit and numbers once it acquired a full-time pastor (23:51-25:49). Brown teaches that we plant the Gospel, not churches, and God grows the church (25:50-31:13). Success is not evident by numbers, but how many actively participate in following the cross as a unified body (31:14-37:19). Dr. Braswell thanks Brown for her address and gives a word of prayer (37:20-38:39).
