Description:: Cynthia Miller was an MDiv student at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. The service begins with organ music (0:00-2:29). An introduction to the service is given as well as an explanation for the banners hanging in the chapel (2:30-5:33). There is a call to worship (5:34-6:26). Prayer concerns are shared and there is a moment of prayer (6:27-10:32). There is a Scripture reading from Genesis (10:33-11:52). Miller speaks about Abraham being the father in faith and Sarah’s response to that (11:53-13:45). Miller argues that Sarah had authority and respect, even over Abraham at times (13:46-15:00). Miller speaks of the criticism that Sarah received in using Hagar to have a child for Abraham but suggests a justification in that Sarah was trying to keep her promise to have a child (15:01-15:45). Miller speaks about Sarah’s homemaking and care while following God’s call and promise to her and Abraham (15:46-23:03). The service closes with a charge to the congregation (23:04-23:34).
