- Description:
- Charles Midkiff was pastor of First Baptist Church in Greenville, KY and a SEBTS Trustee. The service opens with a word of prayer (00:00-01:09). President Randall Lolley introduces Charles Midkiff as the chapel speaker, and he reads from Genesis 35:1-3 (01:10-04:35). The choir sings a song of worship (04:36-08:08). Midkiff begins his sermon with a word of prayer (08:09-09:20). Midkiff walks through the story of Jacob in Genesis, specifically his meeting with God at Bethel, and he describes his time at Southeastern as a “Bethel” experience (09:21-19:08). Midkiff shares four “Bethel” experiences during his time at Southeastern: a deeper love for the Scriptures, an appreciation for the Baptist witness, a fervor for ecumenism and missions, and an “agape” defined love for others (19:09-30:11). Midkiff concludes his sermon by giving a story about when President Lolley visited his family in a time of need, and he thanks the Southeastern community for their love and generosity (30:12-36:14). The service ends with President Lolley giving a word of prayer (36:15-36:43).
