- 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).

- Description:
- 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).

- 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:
- The opening prayer emphasizes a plea for God's forgiveness for our lack of obedience to Him and for our disobedience against Him (00:06-02:22). An introduction was given of Elmer West as the pastor of a church in Washington D.C., having formerly served for ten years as personnel secretary of the Foreign Mission Board (now the International Mission Board). Also stated, he received degrees from the University of Richmond, Colgate-Rochester Crozer Divinity School, and the University of Chicago. He completed his education from the North Carolina Baptist State Hospital, but his ultimate education came from marrying a missionary, the daughter of Dr. Watts who taught in Palestine (04:09-05:47). The title of this address is "Missionary as Servant" (09:02-10:13). Words such as pastor, teacher, administrator, organizer, popular speaker, etc. often characterize those who lead in the church, but "servant" is hardly ever one of them; yet, this is the description of Jesus Christ Himself, who came not to serve but to be served and to give His life as a ransom for many (10:14-10:45). Without a servanthood in missions, our churches will grow larger in size while shrinking in membership (17:00-17:27). West urges the denominations of Protestantism to come together in Christ for the propagation of the Gospel to those who have never heard it (17:28-28:24). He also strongly exhorts Americans to humility in hearing from our brothers and sisters overseas, valuing and benefiting from their input instead of just sending more American missionaries and funds their way (28:25-30:50). West calls for a reassertion of the high qualifications of missionaries, opposed to the growing "eases" of missions and saving the lost for some (30:51-41:43). [A brief loss of volume occurs between 35:35-35:43.] We have to give up our comfort and sacrifice much for Christ's name, but everything we gain will be more than worth the cost of what we gave up (41:44-43:47). The closing prayer ended with this emphasis as well, asking God to do this great work in and through His Church (44:01-45:04).
