- Description:
- Theodore Floyd Adams was Visiting Professor of Preaching at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. The service begins with a prayer (0:00-1:19). After which, the speaker reads Hebrews 11:32-12:2 (1:20-4:05). Adams’s message is on how each believer should be a witness for Christ. Adams begins with an introduction concerning memorials (4:06-7:46). He continues by explaining that each believer must be a witness for Christ (7:47-13:43). Adams provides multiple illustrations of being a witness for Christ, and of failing to be a witness (13:44-22:54). He concludes by challenging his audience to be witnesses (22:55-25:49). He closes in prayer (25:50-26:51).

- 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 with the reading of a poem (00:00-00:40) and prayer (00:41-04:45). 2 Corinthians 5:11-17 is read and discussed briefly (04:46-07:00). There is a brief time of singing and worship (07:01-11:19). There is no introduction for the speaker, Dr. Robert Cook Briggs, but he was Professor of New Testament Interpretation at SEBTS. The notion of a personal testimony in conjunction with 2 Corinthians 5:17 is discussed (11:20-15:34). The “newness” of the Christian situation is Paul’s emphasis, and it can evoke different kinds of responses (15:35-18:00). In Paul’s new life, anxiety, worry, and distress all played a crucial role by causing him to cast himself onto Christ and other Christians (18:01-26:37). He ends his time with prayer (26:38-27:00).

- 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 a reading (00:00-00:53) and a prayer (00:54-05:04). Another short prayer follows by John E. Davis (05:05-05:22). No introduction was given for the speaker, John E. Davis, but he was a student at SEBTS. He outlines two presuppositions of seminary education (05:23-06:02). First, the questions we are raising at SEBTS are but hollow and intellectual gymnastics if they are foreign to the common man’s questions (06:03-13:49). Second, the gospel is a totally consuming dynamic and not a moral philosophy nor a legal code (13:50-23:53). He quotes Philippians 3:12-16 (23:54-24:46), and he ends his time in prayer (24:47-25:24).

- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of Psalm 24:1-2 (00:20), and an introduction is given for the Reverend Robert C. McClernon, pastor of Watts Street Baptist Church in Durham, NC. From Springfield, Missouri, he received a BA degree from Drury College in Missouri and a Bachelor of Divinity degree from the Federated Faculty of the University of Chicago. He also served as Associate Minister at Myers Park Baptist Church in Charlotte, NC for nine years before coming to pastor at Watts Street (00:43-01:32). The service continues with a responsive reading of Psalm 23 (1:33-2:34) and prayer afterward (2:35-4:51). Robert McClernon begins his message with the prayerful reading of Romans 5:1-5 (04:52-05:52). McClernon intends to humbly share with his listeners some of his own understandings of what makes us who are we to be as ministers of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Unless the clergy indicates to those whom we serve that God has called us to offer all of ourselves to Him in service, we cannot hope anyone else will do this after us. Firstly, God has called us to be theologians who love Him with our minds (05:53-09:58). Secondly, God has called us to be theologians who have ears and can minister by listening well (09:59-11:57). Thirdly, God has called us to have realistic self-conceptions, understanding that we must remember our humanity and weaknesses in our ministry as “professional” clergy and so protect ourselves from becoming “holy phonies.” According to McClernon, the gospel must become incarnate in us so that others see it as genuine, powerful, and effective for them as well (11:58-26:35). He then ends the service in prayer to God (26:36-27:54).

- Description:
- The service begins with the overlapping audio of the ending of a prayer and the introduction of Clarence Griffin, concerning his educational, ministerial, and missional background in Indonesia (00:00-01:03). He begins with gratefulness for the opportunity to speak (01:04-02:15) by reading Matthew 4:18-22 and telling a fishing story to relate to Jesus's call to fish for men. He explains that, from Matthew 5:13-16, we are called to also be the salt and light of the world, preserving those who are perishing and warning those who roam in darkness of the imminent Danger about them (02:16-07:42). In a world which desires peace where there is none, we must not be worriers but warriors for Christ (07:43-13:42). Griffin proceeds to read the story of Gideon from Judges 7, outlining two aspects of the victory of the 300. Firstly, God wanted to make sure His people gave Him the glory for the victory instead of themselves, and secondly, God wanted to increase His people's faith in Him (13:43-15:38). We cannot win the world by our own power, but we must fully depend on the power of the Holy Spirit (15:39-20:50). He ends his time in prayer, (20:51-21:51) and the service ends with a choral closing (21:52-22:17).

- Description:
- There is silence (00:00-00:54) before the service opens in prayer (00:55-02:50). There is an introduction for Dr. James R. Moseley concerning his educational, working, and missional background. He was a medical missionary to Nigeria and became Seminary Physician, presenting his address entitled “My Personal Testimony” (02:51-05:12). He begins with cordialities and general information about his medical service at SEBTS (05:13-08:28). He admits not to know anything about theology or about church polity, but he intends to testify to God’s work in his life as he can best interpret it to be so (08:29-09:13). He was first called to missions in 1948, but he fought it and did not fully surrender to it until he heard a sermon about how he could make his best contribution to life (09:14-15:50). He worked with the Foreign Mission Board (now the International Mission Board) to go to Nigeria as a medical missionary, and he spends time telling key stories of his time there which impacted his life (15:51-27:47). The original speaker then comments on Dr. Mosely’s remarkable character traits to show even more of his authenticity (27:48-28:30) before concluding the service in prayer (28:31-28:54). Another prayer is offered in the audio (29:26-30:20).
