Start Over Creator Hester, Richard L. (Richard Loren) Subject Authority

1. SEBTS Chapel - Richard Loren Hester September 24, 1980

Description:
Richard Loren Hester was Professor of Pastoral Care and Psychology of Religion. The service begins with an announcement on the symposium of ministerial authority, and a word of prayer is given (00:00-02:02). The speaker reads from Mark 10:35-45 (02:03-03:50). Hester speaks about seduction in ministry and how it is not always connected to sex, but it is more often found in the desire of heroism (03:51-30:04). The audience is given the opportunity to ask questions on Hester’s message (30:05-31:15). The first question deals with the difficulty of loving everyone like Christ (31:16-36:09). The second question deals with understanding a good side of seductive power (36:10-38:46). The third question deals with locus of authority (38:47-40:47). The fourth question deals with idea of seeking to meet our own needs (40:48-42:27). The fifth question deals with the issue of caring for pietistic members and the expectations of being heroic (42:28-45:21). The final question deals with issue of self-justification (45:22-49:36).
