- Description:
- The service begins with prayer (00:00-02:39) and the reading of Luke 24:44-49 (02:40-04:06). There was no introduction for the speaker, Dr. John Watson Shepard, but he was Professor of Christian Ethics at Seinan Gakuin University in Fukuoka, Japan. In his message, he intends to go over the “why, what, and how” of our global mission task (04:07-07:07:22). The “why” of missions is simple from Scripture: the Lord has commanded and sent us, and the burden in us to share the good news of what has happened to us in Christ with the unbelieving is heavy (07:23-10:57). The “what” of missions, on one hand, is simply the gopsel; however, on the other hand, “how” we communicate that gospel across cultures can be difficult (10:58-17:45). Remarking further on the “how” of missions, we are witnesses and testify to that experience; we need to know the culture and language of the people we are among, but ultimately salvation belongs to the Lord (17:46-22:28). He ends in prayer (22:29-23:17).

- Description:
- The service begins in prayer (00:00-03:06), and the speaker, R. Paul Caudill, was introduced as the pastor of the First Baptist Church of Memphis, TN, according to his educational and ministerial background (03:07-05:00). He says in this missionary address that the greatest danger that we face today is the blindness caused by materialism, and he gives examples of this from various countries (05:01-16:42). His word of hope comes from the Apostle Paul in Romans 1:14-15 (16:43-17:51). His first word has to do with acknowledgement of our debt which we owe to the world, namely, that the gospel should be proclaimed among the nations, withstanding the great price we must pay if we are to go to them (or not) (17:52-30:57). He mentions some modern missionary statistics (30:58-38:24). He closes with a challenge for his audience to actually obey Jesus’s command to “go” to the nations with the gospel (38:25-49:00), and he ends his time in prayer (49:01-51:10).

- The service begins with prayer (00:00-02:08), and President Stealey gives an introduction for Dr. Theron D. Price, the pastor of Wornall Road Baptist Church in Kansas City, MO (02:09-05:34). Dr. Price opens with brief formalities (05:35-11:40), and the subject of his lecture was the Church’s world mission, entitled “Immortal Tidings in Your Mortal Hands” (11:41-12:56). Man, morality, and God are interpretable only from the perspective of Calvary (12:57-14:47). Two statements about the gospel must be made: there is one dominating Way which gives all of history its direction, and Jesus of Nazareth is that Way. To be “Christian” is to be “on mission,” and the Church and mission are one (14:48-27:14). What God has to say to the world is Christ in the gospel (27:15-36:02). The Church, then, is mission, and the gospel is aimed at the whole world (36:03-52:25). In conclusion, he reads a poem by Mississippi planter and poet, William Alexander Pearcey (52:26-54:25), before ending in prayer (54:26-55:20). Organ music ends the service (55:21-55:37).

- Description:
- No introduction was given for Troy Bennett, but he was a missionary in Southern Asia and a former graduate of SEBTS. He recounts the cultural differnces between his home and the mission field, remembering what he and his family had to learn while there, including customs, language, etc. (00:00-05:58). He then talks about a bothering question, “What is a Christian,” concerning which he received affirmative answers from many who did not know themselves what it meant to be a Christian. Identifying as Christian here meant identifying against over 85% of the Muslim, Buddhist, and Hindu population (05:59-12:52). He then speaks about his experience of those in the East viewing the American West as “Christian” (12:53-17:07). Bennett referred to the Sermon on the Mount from Matthew 5-7 to determine what it truly means to be a Christian (17:08-21:01) before closing his time in prayer (21:02-22:38). Organ music ends the service (22:39-24:42).

- Description:
- Dr. Stealey begins with a brief word (00:00-00:50) and a prayer (00:51-04:22). An introduction is given for Keith Edwards, who was a missionary to Nigeria as well as a physician and a surgeon (04:23-06:02). Colossians 3:11 is read aloud before Dr. Edwards gives the message (06:03-06:35). Dr. Edwards begins by suggesting that our concept of missions and missionaries is inaccurate. He proceeds to describe personal experiences of his missionary work in Nigeria (06:36-15:23). He emphasizes that there is no difference in death for people regarding different skin color or attire, and he reflects on the understanding Christ has for our sorrows (15:24-17:18:05). He ends in prayer (18:06-19:22).

- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of Psalm 67:1-3 as a prayer (00:00-00:36). From SEBTS’s graduates, a list of homebound missionaries is read (00:37-01:52) along with a list of foreign missionaries (01:53-05:23) and missionaries currently studying at the SEBTS campus (05:24-07:00). A prayer is offered to God for these missionaries (07:01-13:39). An introduction for the service’s testimony by Charles Wiggs is given (13:40-15:37). He then shares his testimony (15:38-21:44). An introduction for five more testimonial reports is given (21:45-23:22), first by Bill Hern (23:23-25:56), second by Robert Lindsey (25:57-32:14), third by Robert Fielden (32:15-35:29), fourth by Harry Raley (35:30-37:54), and fifth by Gene Phillips (37:55-39:46). Concluding words reinforce the seminary’s belief that every Christian is called into full-time ministry, while others profess a specific calling into vocational ministry or missionary work (39:47-42:55). A closing hymn (42:56-46:11), a benediction (46:12-47:20), and singing ends the service (47:21-47:39).

- 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).

- Description:
- There was no formal introduction for G. Avery Lee, but he was pastor of St. Charles Avenue Baptist Church in New Orleans, Louisiana, and focused his ministry on college/seminary campuses. He made dedicated commitments to bettering race relations and served as Chairman of the Christian Life Commission from 1961-62. He gives various introductory courtesies (00:00-02:56), and his sermon builds from his previous sermon on February 10, 1966, focusing on “The Acceptable Year of the Lord” taken from John 12:27 (02:57-03:20). Lee outlines key facets of making this year (1966) the acceptable year of the Lord. Firstly, we must take seriously the explosion in knowledge and its effects on our seminaries and economy (03:21-12:41). Secondly, we must have an acute sense of responsibility, which Lee thinks is our top weakness in our churches and as a society (12:42-20:12). Thirdly, our Christian development must give us a sense of concern as we seek to avoid both conformity and complacency. He focuses this point on global missions, encouraging his listeners that obedience, not results, is what God requires of us (20:13-34:32). He closes the service in prayer (34:33-36:17).
