Muto discusses the feeling of discouragement or depletion that many people feel in their life and that one must ask introspective questions (0:11:37-0:22:09). Van Kaam argues the cause of inner despair is the temptation to believe that one’s works are capable of sustaining one instead of God (0:22:10-0:27:40). Van Kaam uses the testimony of a Jewish woman to illustrate that one must go through suffering before realizing that one cannot be sustained by one’s own works and the renewing of faith (0:27:41-0:31:55). Van Kaam speaks about how the Lord performs miracles in people that may only be revealed in eternity, putting smiles in people’s hearts and springs in their steps (0:31:56-0:40:45). Muto explains that faith is difficult to share if one does not have it for themselves (0:40:46-0:42:40). Muto explains that when a minister becomes so focused on others that they don’t minister to themselves, which can build up anger (0:42:41-0:46:35). Muto shares that one should go to the Lord instead of blaming others (0:46:36-0:47:52). Van Kaam states that nothing eats more at physical life than unrighteous anger (0:47:53-0:49:30). He explains that forgiveness is healing, especially considering that much anger is born from religious strife (0:49:31-0:55:17). Van Kaam argues that one cannot force others to have the same opinion, and one should not let anger get in the way of civil conversation (0:55:18-1:01:18). The location for further discussion with the chapel speakers is announced (1:01:19-1:02:05). The service closes with a benediction (1:02:06-1:02:22).

Van Kaam speaks about the beauty of poetry, such as the Psalms, that cause one to have an experience (17:50-19:45). Van Kaam speaks about the term “formative spirituality” and the need for a continual reformation of the church (19:46-21:09). He explains the obstacles of formative spirituality, such as urgency instead of a prayerful presence of contemplation and argues that the whole of Christianity is a practice of listening to the Lord (21:10-29:02). They have a moment of stillness (29:03-29:20). Muto speaks of the film Van Kaam mentioned earlier, speaking about “knowing the external rules of religion” with a lack of deep spirituality (29:21-32:35). Muto walks through meditating as an example for the congregation, sharing that it takes weeks for one to become quiet enough to learn something about the Spirit (32:36-39:36). Van Kaam speaks about those who leave the church to pursue psychology or similar pursuits and the efforts of formative spirituality to prevent such a falling away (39:37-52:57).

Slier explains how he personally felt the sense of betrayal from seminary and the church congregation when he was not met with the church he expected (17:36-18:59). He shares a quote from Dietrich Bonhoeffer that helped him realize that visionary dreaming in the church can be dishonoring to God (19:00-22:23). Siler compares the grief of the disciples when they felt betrayed by Jesus to the excitement of hearing that Jesus did rise from the dead (22:24-25:43). He speaks about how present-day ministers knowing their weakness means they can learn to live with it (25:44-31:04). The choir sings a song of worship (31:05-33:54).

Prayer concerns are shared with the congregation and there is a moment of prayer (6:06-10:02). Nancy Ferree is introduced as the chapel speaker (10:03-10:34). Ferree expresses her appreciation for being asked to speak (10:35-10:09). She reads from James 2:14-17 and Mark 8:27-38 (10:10-14:06). Ferree speaks about people living up to titles they have and the disgrace they bring upon themselves if they do not live up to the titles they own (14:07-17:35). Ferree shares that in the Scripture on which she is teaching, Jesus and the disciples speak about Jesus’ title: the Christ (17:36-19:56). She explains that it’s easier to envision a great Messiah to come rather than to see the Jesus of the New Testament as the Son of God (19:57-20:10). Ferree shares of someone in her life who has exemplified the work of Christ and doing so for Christ’s glory instead of one’s own (20:11-26:25).

- Disclaimer: The first portion of the service is inaudible. Russell Jones was an MDiv student at Southeastern Seminary. The service begins with Scripture readings (0:00-1:59).

Jones admits to being a skeptic when it comes to Scripture, especially about God’s acceptance, and he speaks on the difficulty of hearing Paul say there is not a division to be made between types of people (6:20-7:40). He speaks on tearing down the walls of what a minister is supposed to be like, removing the masculine and feminine labels and replacing them with attributes devoid of gender assumptions (7:41-12:13). Jones argues that “denying church ordination to a person on the basis of sex” does a great injustice (12:14-18:29). The congregation shares in reciting the litany of affirmation (18:30-20:59). The service ends with a benediction (21:00-21:33).

- The service begins with a call to worship through a responsive reading (0:00-0:99). The congregation is encouraged to examine their hearts, confess their sins and sorrows, and are led in prayer (1:00-5:25). Osborne reads from Genesis 1 and speaks about the powerful affirmation of being created in the image of God (5:26-6:32). She speaks about how our words and experience are tied together, giving examples of familiar images we associate with God (6:33-7:48). Osborne suggests the image of God as mother, which she believes to be colorful and new (7:49-8:40). She suggests that all the attributes of stereotypical males and females are attributes which we find in God, saying, “Just as the characteristics we typify as male or female are present in the humanness of all humans, so they are equally present in the godness of God” (8:41-9:43). Osborne argues that the female language of faith has been overlooked over the centuries in favor of the male language of faith, and that both aspects should be considered in relation to God and people (9:44-13:22). There is a litany of thanksgiving (13:23-15:04). Another speaker shares about how all people are made in the image of God and that creation would not be the same without people (15:05-16:40). One’s view on Jesus shifts based on the understanding that people are made in the image of God, that people are not called to be like Jesus, yet still image bearers of God (16:41-19:04). She shares moments when she saw the image of God played out (19:05-22:22). There is a litany of thanksgiving for people who have lived out God’s image in their day and who have worked to see free the image of God in others, such as the Hebrew midwives who subverted the power of Pharaoh, stuttering Moses, courageous Ruth, timid Mary, Sojourner Truth, Martin Luther King Jr., and others, including those who have personally touched the lives of the congregation (22:23-27:00). There is a congregational prayer and responsive reading (27:01-28:10).

Michael Hawn sings a song of worship (0:24:16-0:29:30). Dr. Findley Edge, who was the Basil Manly Professor of Religious Education, is introduced as the next speaker (0:29:31-0:31:18). Edge begins by giving the theme of his presentation, which is the role of pastors (0:31:19-0:33:00). Edge explains the tendency to keep the form but lose the essence in pastoring, which he terms the problem of the institutionalization of the church (0:33:01-0:40:10). Edge speaks on what is the calling or role of a pastor, drawing from the New Testament teachings and descriptions of apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, bishops, and elders (0:40:11-1:15:19). Edge says the overriding ministry task of the pastor is to teach and equip the people (1:15:20-1:25:00). Edge argues that the members of a church must also change their expectation of a pastor (1:25:01-1:30:30). Christine Gregory, who was a mother and high-school economics teacher, is introduced as the next speaker (1:30:31-1:32:25). Gregory speaks of unstructured stimuli, which are things that spark thoughts, explaining the scientific reason of how all people are similar regardless of background and upbringing (1:32:26-1:36:18). Gregory speaks about how Jesus brings together people of different backgrounds and educations for the purpose to serve Him through evangelism (1:36:19-1:49:36). The service is concluded in a word of prayer (1:49:37-1:50:32).
