- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of Proverbs 3:19-20 (00:00-00:18) and prayer (00:19-03:30). An introduction is given for the speaker, Dr. William J. Fallis, who was Editor of Broadman Press (03:31-04:18). His Scripture lesson comes from Genesis 1:1-5 and 26-27, Psalm 104:13-15, Isaiah 40:18 and 22, and Psalm 103:22 (04:19-06:27). His message focuses on four secrets of God in our world which we may often take for granted: the secret of the star, displaying God’s order (06:28-12:17), the secret of the seed, displaying God’s variety (12:18-14:23), the secret of the child, displaying God’s companionship with man (14:24-16:26), and the secret of the cross, displaying God’s power and wisdom (16:27-18:39). He ends with prayer (18:40-19:54).

- The service begins with the reading of a story and a brief update concerning inclement weather (00:00-03:34), entering into a time of prayer (03:35-05:14). An introduction was given for the speaker, Dr. Ralph Alderman Herring, who was a SEBTS trustee since the school’s beginning until recently. He was pastor of First Baptist Church in Salem, NC, but had resigned a year prior to this chapel, serving at the time of the chapel as SEBTS’s Secretary of the Extension Department (05:15-07:44). He begins his time with a word of welcome and a brief detailing of his position at the seminary (07:45-13:34). He focuses his message on the principle of circuitry from Jesus’s words in Mark 4:24, quoting Longfellow and another poet who express the same principle. He furthers the remainder of his sermon working from this principle (13:35-24:00). He postulates that success in the work of ministry depends on the acquisitiveness of our faith (24:01-25:31). He ends his time with prayer (25:32-26:18).

- Description:
- The service begins with prayer (00:00-03:49). A welcome and recognition of certain people from the Women’s Missionary Union (WMU) are given (03:50-05:39), and the speaker, Dr. Baker James Cauthen, is welcomed and introduced (05:40-08:06). He was the Executive Director of the Foreign Mission Board (now the International Mission Board). The service continues with choral singing (08:07-09:56). He begins by reminding the congregation of the seminary’s missional purpose from its inception and its level place among the other five seminaries (09:57-13:35). He stresses that the central theme of missions is seeking God in prayer (13:36-19:06). The Scripture text for the sermon is 2 Corinthians 5:18-19, entitled “the Ministry of Reconciliation” (19:07-20:55). Man’s basic need is to be reconciled to God, and we ought to leverage our means which we spend on buildings and programs to advance the gospel to the nations (20:56-34:57). He asks those in the congregation to consider their service to God as extending far instead of staying near, affirming God does call His people to both realms (34:58-53:18). He ends his message by talking about the seriousness of viewing oneself as a missionary, both near and far away (53:19-1:03:11).
