Richard Loren Hester was the Professor of Pastoral Care and Psychology of Religion at Southeastern Seminary. The service begins with a prayer (0:00-1:02). There is organ music (1:03-1:46). There is a Scripture reading from Genesis 4:1-6 (1:47-4:20). There is a song of worship (4:21-7:48). Hester begins his presentation by recounting unpleasant memories from his childhood (7:49-12:38). Hester speaks about how the church has left the story of Cain and Abel untouched and how the church likes to keep the Old and New Testament separate (12:39-15:50). Hester speaks on how the unpleasant memories and stories in the Bible tell about a person in the present (15:51-18:29). Hester provides a summary of the Biblical story of Cain and Abel and explains how he and all people share the same sinful nature as Cain, yet God has a plan (18:30-25:23). Hester closes the service in a prayer (25:24-25:52).
