- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of Isaiah 40:31 and prayer (00:00-03:24), followed by announcements (03:25-9:59) and an introduction for Alan Compton concerning his education and ministry. He was a missionary and a representative of Radio and Television Works of Missionary Fields of Latin America (10:00-11:37). His message focuses on discipleship and the Great Commission, beginning by saying the Great Commission has lost emphasis in many Southern Baptist churches in America. Even its individualized interpretation over the years has resulted in talking about “what we are doing” instead of “what God is doing” (11:38-15:23). His text is taken from Acts 1, and he warns that discipleship has become the job of those called into professional ministry, when it is the necessary responsibility and call of God for every Christian. We can only have compassion for the world by being disciples of Jesus Christ, and we must be willing to go wherever God may call us (15:24-25:17). Obeying the Great Commission becomes less about what you do and more about the witness you become in Christ (25:18-27:29). We cannot depend on enthusiasm and faith by themselves to carry out this work, but we must depend on the Holy Spirit (27:30-34:43). He ends the service in prayer, but the words seem to cut out before he is done speaking (34:44-35:51).

- The service begins with the reading of Isaiah 40:31 (00:00-00:18), followed by instrumental music (00:19-02:00). An opening prayer is offered to God (02:10-04:38). An introduction is given for the Reverend Max Eller. He was a Lieutenant Commander in the United States Navy Chaplaincy. He graduated from Wake Forest College and SEBTS in 1956, and he began his chaplaincy in 1958. Before this, he served as a pastor in North Carolina (04:39-05:31). He begins with general thanks for the opportunity to speak and then reads Matthew 10:1, 5-8 (05:32-07:29). His message centers on the following two aspects which he considers to be most important in the ministry of the gospel: the proclamation of the gospel of Jesus and the compassionate ministry which we must carry out as we proclaim that ministry in the world (07:30-07:52). He transitions into a story about Count Zinzendorf’s prayerful reflections on the work of Christ and the response we will have for Christ as a result (07:53-09:25), and he uses that story to recapture his previous two aspects of gospel ministry (09:26-12:24) and place an emphasis on the cross of Christ in gospel ministry (12:25-15:22). Considering what we will do for Christ in response to His death on the cross for us, Max Eller quotes Matthew 28:19 and the opening passage from Matthew 10, going on to place the question in specific relevant contexts around the world (15:23-22:41). He then closes with prayer (22:42-23:11), and the service ends with singing (23:12-24:00). The last minute of the audio is silent (24:01-25:04).

- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of Matthew 7:12 (00:00-00:15), a prayer update (00:16-01:01), and prayer (01:02-05:04). An introduction is given for the speaker, Douglas M. Branch, the Executive Secretary of the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina (05:05-07:47). His message centers on the Great Confession and the Great Commission from the Gospels (07:48-10:35). They both were set within a sphere of inquiry (10:36-13:52), and they both were revelatory of God’s mission on earth for us to carry out (13:53-15:58). The involvement of this mission has two facets: to continue to have a renewed sense of the divine call on our lives (15:59-17:56) and to be a part of the whole movement of Jesus Christ beyond simply our local setting (17:57-19:39). Our unity is spiritual, brought about by the Holy Spirit; our freedom is to obey the leadership of the Holy Spirit; and our work is to be in harmony with other Baptists in the Holy Spirit (19:40-21:08). He ends his time in prayer (21:09-22:25).

- Description:
- Lewis Addition Drummond was the 4th president of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary and Professor of the History and Theology of Evangelism. The service opens with a word of prayer from Dr. George Braswell (00:00-02:14). President Lewis A. Drummond gives a word of greeting for the day of convocation for the inauguration of the Center for Great Commission Studies, and he introduces the seminar leaders and plenary speaker, all the conference attendees, and the board of trustees (02:15-06:25). Dr. Wayne McDill briefly speaks about the importance of evangelism, the Great Commission, and missions for Southern Baptists and Southeastern Seminary, and he presents a theme for the convocation service of “Heart for the World” (06:26-11:25). Drummond reads from Matthew 28:16-20, and he begins his sermon with his first point that the fulfilment of the Great Commission comes through the power of the Holy Spirit (11:26-18:17). Drummond’s second point is that God calls us to make disciples and not decisions, and he says that the power of the gospel message is Jesus Christ and his defeat of death in the resurrection (18:18-26:36). Drummond’s third point is that we are to baptize converts into the community of God and teach them the Scriptures, and he says that God desires believers to know and be like Jesus Christ (26:37-32:35). Drummond’s final point is that we need the presence of God, and he says God’s presence must reach the ends of the earth (32:36-37:15). Drummond concludes his sermon with a Great Commission litany (37:16-39:56). Dr. Delos Miles closes the convocation with a benediction (39:57-40:33).

- R. Keith Parks was the President of the Foreign Mission Board. Chapel begins with an audience responsive reading and prayer (0:00-2:11). The speaker, Dr. Keith Parks, is introduced (2:11-3:40). Undecipherable music (3:40-7:20). Dr. Parks begins his message and focuses on the challenges and responsibility of accurately communicating the gospel to others (7:20-13:42). He introduces and reads passages from 1 Corinthians 4 and Ephesians 2 and 3 (13:42-18:45). His thesis is that God’s calling involving salvation and direction of life is a calling to become his steward, responsible for the good news of salvation which requires of everyone trustworthiness in completing the task (18:45-19:50). He illustrates this with a story about good stewardship (19:50-24:23). He exhorts that believers must recognize the lordship of God who created everything and that we must fulfill our stewardship faithfully, to be trustworthy (24:23-25:20). Dr. Parks says he also grows concerned when he reflects on the way he exercises stewardship of the gospel. He says it requires the sacrifice of the steward’s interest so that the gospel might go forward (25:20-32:05). He states that choice is the highest compliment a steward can be paid by God and that stewards must make hard decisions in order to help the gospel spread (32:05-36:00). The gospel is for all the earth and when we are saved, we must go tell everyone (36:00-39:50) He discusses the great potential of the Southern Baptists to share the gospel with the world (39:50-47:00). Dr. Parks closes the chapel in prayer (47:00-48:32).

- At the time of this recording Jack Little was a Middler MDiv student. This chapel was part of the Student-led Revival and Little’s topic was “Going With the Green.” Indecipherable music (0:00-2:23). Students lead in a rendition of “Amazing Grace” (2:23-5:45). A speaker introduces the program and announces that the musicians will lead in “He’s Alive” and “Seek Ye First” (5:45-8:05). Students lead in "He’s Alive” (8:05-12:18). Students lead in “Seek Ye First” (12:18-16:13). A student introduces various people involved in the program (16:13-18:13). A student gives his testimony (18:13-24:53). A student leads in song (24:53-28:36). Jack Little begins his message by reading Matthew 28:19-20 and leading in prayer (28:36-31:08). Mr. Little acknowledges the great responsibility of spreading the gospel and making disciples as seen in Matthew 28, and states there are some basic elements for going ahead with the green light to spread the gospel (31:08-34:11). The first of the elements is communication and the language that is used (34:11-41:02). The second element is the element of love, which he says Jesus most exemplified himself (41:02-47:34). The third element is the element of truth, meaning that all that is done is done in the power of the Holy Spirit (47:34-53:45). He concludes his message by reviewing the elements needed to fulfill the Great Commission well and reminding the audience that Jesus is with his people throughout the mission (53:45-55:53). Mr. Little closes chapel in prayer (55:53-56:23).
