- 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).

- The service begins in prayer (00:00-00:48), and President Stealey gives an introduction for Dr. Theron D. Price, the pastor of Wornall Road Baptist Church in Kansas City, MO (00:49-01:58). He begins with formalities toward President Stealey and an introduction into his message (01:59-07:24). His first focus in on God as Lord and as inexpressible by human language and thought (07:25-08:49), highlighting “the Word” (logos) as the best expression of God’s infinite being, action, and knowledge (08:50-18:58). He explains the threefold description of the Word as revealed (Jesus Christ), written (Holy Scripture), and preached (Church’s proclamation) (18:59-46:21). With his time remaining, he deals with humans as interpreters of the Bible, not only in its strangeness but also in a pastoral sense, with the increasing Christian unfamiliarity with the Bible (46:22-53:32). He ends his time in prayer (53:33-54:58), and organ music ends the service (54:59-56:49).

- Description:
- The service begins with prayer (00:00-01:22), and President Stealey gives updates, information about the Barnes Carver lecture series, and an introduction of the speaker, Theron D. Price. He was pastor of Wornall Road Baptist Church in Kansas City, MO (01:23-05:49). Dr. Price begins with opening formalities, and the subject of his message was about worship: “May a Mortal Lisp Thy Name!” (05:50-13:17). He begins by saying that worship of God concerns what God has done for our salvation, and that the gospel is first a narrative before it is advisatory (13:18-18:53). The remaining lecture concerns itself first with an attempt to locate the worshipping self (18:54-38:02), second with worship as knowledge only being possible in the religion of incarnation and expressed in Trinitarian Faith [skipped because of time] (38:03-39:18), and ending on studying the effects of the worship of God in the renewal of life (39:19-49:35). He ends his time in prayer (49:36-51:04), and organ music ends the service (51:05-51:35).

- 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).

- The service begins with the reading of Psalm 67:1-3 (00:00-00:24) and prayer (00:25-01:59). The sermon text, Romans 5:6-11, is read aloud (02:00-03:22). No introduction was given for J. Henry Coffer, Jr., but he was Instructor of Religious Education at SEBTS. His sermon focuses on the meaning of the atonement, understood in the symbol of redemption—the blood of Christ. The hymnal phrase “washed in the blood” could cause much confusion about what is being communicated without an understanding of the blood of Christ (03:23-07:49). Coffer talks about the inner hostility in man and an oftentimes hidden or unspoken intent to release that anger onto its objects. He then points out that all of this hatred toward others is really pointed at God (07:50-15:42). The blood of Christ is the acceptance of our hostility against God, atoned for and completely spent, and in this way, God has redeemed us from our sins and has reconciled man to Himself (15:43-22:20). He ends his time in prayer (22:21-22:45).

- The service begins with the reading of Philippians 2:12b-13 (00:00-00:18), prayer (00:19-03:42), and announcements (03:43-09:26). No introduction was given for Sydnor Lorenzo Stealey, but he was the first president of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. He proceeds to read 2 Corinthians 2:14-17 and Hebrews 13:15-16 from the KJV (09:27-11:26), and then the same passages again from the Amplified New Testament (11:27-13:38). Stealey talks about an increasing willingness to look into our life and to try to make the institutional church conform more nearly to the spiritual church (13:39-16:02), and he advocates for the Home Mission Board (now the North American Mission Board) for students to participate in the Pioneer Program throughout the West (16:03-16:33). He then reads from the most recent issue of Home Mission Magazine, calling attention to the issue of segregation in public schools, which would continue to deepen the division between church and state (16:34-18:40). The main point of his message is this: in our living, we can do right, according to our conscience and our spiritual Leader, who is Christ (18:41-18:59). He concludes his time speaking about the cooperative program’s longevity in Southern Baptist life (19:00-21:50) and in prayer (21:51-22:09).

No introduction was given for Olin Trivette Binkley, but he was Professor of Christian Sociology and Ethics and Academic Dean of SEBTS. Focusing on 3 John 1:8, Binkley asks how students in a theological seminary might help the faculty to be productive scholars and creative teachers (02:02-03:49). Firstly, students may do this by affirming participation in a deeper knowledge of the truth about God and its relation to human decisions. They must join the professors in academic scholarship and see both parties as desiring to know the truth (03:50-06:59). Secondly, students and faculty must keep the channels of communication open with each other (07:00-09:54). Thirdly, students must show a readiness to recognize the perils confronting servants of God, namely three: accommodating the gospel to the culture, subordinating what God demands of us to what man expects of us, and practicing cruelty in human relations (09:55-13:23).

- Description:
- The service begins with prayer (00:00-03:01), a recognition of the Board of Trustees for this Founder’s Day Address (03:02-07:24), and a word of resignation from the chairman of the Board of Trustees as well as his introduction of the speaker, Dr. John Edward Steely, Associate Professor of Historical Theology (07:25-11:03). The choir sings “When I Survey the Wond’rous Cross” as the anthem of SEBTS (11:04-14:48) before Dr. Steely begins his address, covering personal counsel concerning the history of SEBTS over the previous 10 years from its inception to the present (14:49-16:23). The faculty began with only 4 members and a student body of 101 members, growing by the end of 10 years to a faculty of 30 members and a student body of over 700 members (16:24-17:03). Steely speaks to the efforts of the future historian who will write down this seminary’s history (17:04-23:08). He then speaks of the seminary’s emphases in pursuit of its objectives (23:09-23:55) before speaking about the contributions which over 9,000,000 Southern Baptists have supported through their cooperative giving (23:56-27:54). Dr. Steely then desires that everyone present would, with him, reaffirm their seminarial commitments to the purposes of Jesus Christ (27:55-29:12). Next, he mentions those advancements and doors of opportunity which have opened to the seminary during the second half of the decade, adding the need to live the Christian life to bear witness to Jesus Christ (29:13-33:41) so that the seminary will not fail to complete its task in educating ministers of the gospel (33:42-36:40). President Stealey closed the service with the singing of the seminary hymn (36:41-41:41), prayer (41:42-44:39), and closing song (44:40-46:51).

No introduction was given for Thomas Albert Bland, but he was Associate Professor of Christian Sociology and Ethics. He begins by talking about the importance of the “frontier” in American history, taking note of the race for space but placing importance on the frontier of the inner man (06:01-08:13). Bland says that Peter, in this text, focuses on Faith’s Frontier, identifying seven qualities of life which are to be added to one’s faith; he was not academic but practical, having been personally impacted by the life and ministry of Jesus Christ (08:14-11:37). Bland then continues walking through the list mentioned in the text one item at a time, building upon the foundation of faith. He notes that faith and knowledge go together, so long as knowledge has self-control so that it does not puff one up in conceit (11:38-19:06). He ends his time in prayer (19:07-19:46).

- The service begins with the reading of John 4:23-24 (00:00-00:28), an announcement (00:29-01:07), and prayer (01:08-02:36). Dr. Trotter introduces the speaker, the Reverend Allen Douglas Aldrich, who was the pastor of Forest Hills Baptist Church in Raleigh, NC (02:37-04:17). His message centers on Matthew 6:28. He begins his message by drawing attention to the growing edge of God’s hand which our lives must be subject to (04:18-13:02). The growth of our lives is determined by the vitality of our daily experience of prayer (13:03-14:25), on the basis of the tone of the thoughts on which we feed our lives (14:26-15:31), and by our involvement in relationships through the Church (15:32-18:30). When the growth happens, there is a gradual unfolding of the unique nature of what is growing; this growth cannot happen unless there is death, focusing us on the cross of Christ (18:31-22:41). He ends in prayer (22:42-23:43).

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).

- The service begins with the reading of Psalm 65:4 (00:00-00:20) and prayer (00:21-02:32). Dr. Lovelace introduces the speaker, John T. Bunn, who was the Chairman of the Bible Department at Campbell College in North Carolina (02:33-03:16). He begins by reading Luke 4:16-19 (03:17-04:39). He transitions to speak about the internal weakness of many modern churches and their revitalization through “unlimited substitution” (04:40-09:20). This has come to be because plans, promotions, and organizations have been the exclusive tools for such a revitalization rather than the proclamation of the Word of God from the pulpit (09:21-11:52). The proper place of preaching for the minister and in the life of the church is discussed next (11:53-21:22). He then answers the question, “What will be our primary task or the center of our attention in ministry?” (21:23-26:25). He ends his time in prayer (26:26-27:37).

- 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).

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).
