- Description:
- Richard Gene Puckett was the editor of the Biblical Recorder. Puckett is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:12). A hymn is played (0:13-4:51). A word of prayer is followed by a hymn (cut) (4:52-6:05). Puckett is introduced (6:06-8:02). Puckett thanks Southeastern’s students and faculty (8:03-9:03). His lecture, “State Baptist Papers: Reflectors of the Crises,” focuses on how printed papers are better records of current events (9:04-10:00). He summarizes his lecture from the day before: he explains that the lecture dealt with the history of U.S. Baptist missions with a specific focus on the Judsons and Luther Rice and the creation of the Triennial Convention, the Southern Baptist Convention, and state conventions (10:01-10:20). Puckett expresses that documents exist that inform us of what truly happened during the birth of Baptist missions and that Baptist papers mirror these events (10:21-11:39). He chooses ten crises to prove this point, with the first crisis being the mission vs. anti-mission movements of the nineteenth century (11:40-11:59). These movements resulted due to the conflict between general atonement (Arminian theology) and particular atonement (Calvinistic theology) (12:00-12:55). Puckett reveals that Baptist papers reflected this conflict in Maryland (12:56-15:49). The second crisis involved the founding of the Southern Baptist Convention by the Virginia Mission Society which became a large highlight in Baptist papers (15:50-16:24). The third crisis is the Campbellite and Landmark movements, with the former movement involving Alexander Campbell and his view on baptism (16:25-17:15). Biblical Recorder editor Thomas Meredith recorded the errors of this movement (17:16-18:58). Puckett then explains that the Landmark movement viewed its church as the only valid church in accordance with New Testament truth and made an appearances in the Tennessee Baptist Paper and the Kentucky Western Baptist Review (18:59-20:48). The fourth crisis, with which the Kentucky Western Recorder highly involved, was the Witsitt controversy over whether Baptists could be traced back to Jesus’ time (20:49-23:45). Fundamentalism vs. Modernism was the fifth crisis that became popular in Baptist publications, specifically the Oklahoma Baptist Messenger (23:46-27:33). Puckett’s sixth crisis is the Baptist westward movement: some believed that these Baptists were not true Baptists with Reuben Ally, editor of the Virginia Religious Herald, being a strong voice of the conflict (27:34-29:11). Crisis seven is the Southern Baptist Seminary conflict that occurred due to a disagreement between the president and faculty and appeared in multiple papers such as the Kentucky Western Recorder and the Christian Index (29:12-33:16). The Elliot controversy at Mid-Western Seminary also found its way in Baptist papers, with E.S. James, editor of the Texas Baptist Standard leading the way (33:17-36:02). Puckett’s ninth crisis is the struggle of power, especially within the Southern Baptist Convention concerning the presidential position, and he conveys that this crisis caused many papers to suffer as they attempted to record the facts (36:03-38:23). The final crisis is one that occurred at Southeastern and was accurately and completely recorded by the Biblical Recorder (38:24-40:14). Puckett speaks on the problems of editing and recording, focusing on how writers never have complete freedom of words and on how they must strive to record truthfully, yet fairly (40:15-50:54). He then closes with saying that the Baptist mission of the world depends on education and information (52:59-53:59). Puckett is thanked and the congregation is informed that he will be in the Ledford Center for further discussions (52:59-53:59). A word of prayer ends the event (54:00-54:23).

- Description:
- Richard Gene Puckett was the editor of the Biblical Recorder. Puckett is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:08). A hymn is played (0:09-3:36). A word of prayer is followed by a hymn (cut) (3:37-5:28). The congregation is welcomed, and Puckett is introduced (5:29-10:10). Puckett begins with why he accepted to speak in chapel and offers a testimony (10:11-16:04). He speaks of the necessity of education in order for Baptists to effectively witness and conduct their ministry, with a focus on the birth of Baptist missions (16:05-16:40). He discusses the establishment of the Baptist Triennial Convention as well as the work of the Judsons and Luther Rice (16:41-31:40). Luther Rice’s model at the Columbian College in Washington D.C. led to the births of Baptist publications, conventions, and colleges that made up the foundation of the Southern Baptist Convention (31:41-34:40). Puckett highlights that Northern Baptists began taking over in the Triennial Convention and that a conflict over slavery issued (34:41-42:40). He then speaks of the NC Baptist Association and its founders: Thomas Meredith, editor of the Biblical Recorder, and Samuel Wait, the first president of Wake Forest College (42:41-46:41). He closes his lecture by expressing that conflicts still exist, yet God still remains and the Gospel continues to be preached (46:40-48:36). The announcement of Puckett’s second lecture is made and the congregation is informed that Puckett will be in the Ledford Center for further discussions (48:37-49:12). A word of prayer ends the event (49:13-49:34).

- Description:
- Thomas Furman Hewitt was Professor of Christian Ethics. C. Michael Hawn was Professor of Church Music (these two names were not announced in the recording, but were in the description section). The service begins (abruptly) with a recitation regarding the saints of God (0:00-0:40). A prayer of confession follows (0:41-1:41). A statement is given concerning how nothing can separate us in Christ (1:42-2:11). The choir sings a song of worship (2:12-5:52). Scripture reading is taken from the books of Revelation, Colossians, and John (5:53-9:26). Another song is sung (9:27-10:07). An affirmation of faith is recited followed by a word of prayer (10:08-14:28). The Chapel speaker begins his message by recounting the correspondence between a German professor and soldier during World War II on All Saint’s Day with a focus on death as the enemy (14:29-18:14). He explains that Christians are assured that death is not the end, evident by the celebration of All Saint’s Day—a day commemorating those already living in Jesus’ resurrected presence (18:15-19:32). Our personal fellowship with God gives us hope and assurance that death has no power (19:33-21:33). The speaker conveys that Jesus destroyed the power of death so that it cannot separate us from God, as he quotes the writer of Hebrews (21:34-23:51). He returns to his account of the German professor and the soldier to reinforce that in Christ we can overcome death (23:52-26:22). The choir sings another song of worship (26:23-28:28). The service ends with a prayer of commemoration and commitment (28:29-30:47).

- Anne L. Neil was Consultant for Women in Ministry. Neil is announced as the Chapel speaker (0:00-0:07). A hymn is played (0:08-6:54). Luke 1:39-56 is the Scripture reading of the day (6:55-9:39). A list of concerns is discussed (9:40-11:05). A word of prayer is given (11:06-12:26). Anne Neil is introduced (12:27-13:14). Before she begins speaking, Neil asks for a moment of silence (13:15-13:59). Neil begins with a question, “where is the prophetic voice,” and then she expresses how Mary (Jesus’ mother) and her cousin Elizabeth were unlikely candidates to share the coming of Jesus (14:00-21:00). Both Mary and Elizabeth prophesied Jesus’ salvation (21:01-24:59). Neil discusses how Mary’s prophetic song in the book of Luke reveals the struggles of those who live in poverty and she asks the question: “where is compassion and biblical justice?” (25:00-28:26). She explains that the three sources of prophetic voices are the third world, the black churches of America, and women who all are called to proclaim the Gospel (28:27-33:19). A word of prayer is given (33:20-34:50). Neil closes with the wish that everyone would leave with “hope and God’s good humor” (34:51-35:02).

- Robert D. Dale was SEBTS Academic Coordinator and Professor of Pastoral Leadership and Church Ministries. Dr. Dale is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:08). A hymn is played (0:09-3:27). The choir sings a song of worship (3:28-6:21). Another hymn is played (cut) (6:22-7:19). A word of prayer is followed by Scripture reading from John 2:1-11 (7:20-9:42). Dr. Dale focuses on the Scripture reading and asks the question: why did John decide to show the beginning of Jesus’ ministry at a marriage party in Cana? (9:43-11:46). He explains that Jesus was trying to teach His disciples that following Him meant a life of joy, just as one experiences joy at a party (11:47-12:59). Joy is the proof of faith: Christianity ultimately is a lifestyle of joy (13:00-23:21). Dr. Dale speaks about how life is a burden without Jesus and how joy, once we become followers of Jesus, can become our witness that draws others to Him (23:22-25:26). He then explains that these verses are relevant due to the American culture reducing joy to fun and the conflicts that were occurring in the Southern Baptist Convention at the time (25:27-27:31). He closes his sermon with telling the congregation to “claim the joy of Christ and share it” (27:32-27:41). A word of prayer is given (27:42-28:04).

- Robert H. Parrish was Chairman of the Student Spirit Life Committee. Parrish is announced (0:00-0:09). A hymn is played (0:10-4:29). Psalm 100 is read, followed by a word of prayer (4:30-5:22). Another hymn is played (cut) (5:23-5:30). The prayer of Francis of Assisi is recited as a model of servitude (5:31-6:56). 1 Samuel 3:9-11 and Mark 9:33-35 are read (6:57-10:13). Parrish speaks on God’s call to all to servitude; either small or large tasks ultimately serve God (10:14-13:33). With a strong emphasis on serving one another, Parrish requests everyone to accept a cup of water and pass their cups to their neighbors to drink (13:34-15:08). Additional discussion on servitude is conducted before a hymn is sung (cut) (15:09-17:53). The benediction is given (17:54-18:29).

- Robert H. Culpepper was Professor of Theology at SEBTS. Culpepper is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:07). A hymn is played (0:08-5:11). A word of prayer is followed by Scripture reading from Ephesians 2:11-18 (5:12-9:19). The choir sings a song of worship (9:20-12:27). Culpepper speaks on prayer to the Father through Jesus the Son in the Spirit, focusing on Ephesians 2:18 (12:28-14:51). He expresses that we need to remember to whom our prayers are addressed: to God as the Father, which is a dominate image of God (14:52-17:00). To address God as “Father” is to recognize Him in a personal, accessible, and intimate relationship, not necessarily to identify Him as male (17:01-21:15). Culpepper then discusses that we need to understand God’s holiness and thus approach Him with reverence and awe (21:16-22:07). Despite our sinfulness, we can come to God through the atoning sacrifice of Jesus and through the Holy Spirit when we conform to God’s will (22:08-28:47). Jesus serves as our model of prayer and ultimately, the Holy Spirit makes us want to pray and teaches us how to pray (28:48-32:13). Culpepper closes with saying that Christian prayer, through Jesus and empowered by the Holy Spirit, is directed to one who is concerned about us (32:14-33:56). The benediction is given (32:44-33:56).

- William P. Clemmons was Professor of Christian Education. It is Spirit Life Week and Clemmons is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:13). A hymn is played (0:14-3:55). The choir sings a song of worship (3:56-8:26). More singing commences after an explanation is given on how the congregation is supposed to join the choir (8:27-19:00). There is a moment of silence (19:01-1958). Scripture reading is provided from the book of Joel (19:59-21:17). Psalm 23 is sung (21:18-24:54). Additional Scripture reading is from the book of Matthew (24:55-27:02). Clemmons speaks of John Shay’s book The Spirit Master and focuses on how Jesus shares His Spirit with believers by engaging with them on a personal level (27:03-33:41). He then asks the congregation to reflect on his words as the choir begins to sing (33:42-38:26). Clemmons gives a word of prayer (38:27-39:37). The service concludes with the choir singing (39:38-42:50).

- Jack Stearns was the Director of the Mid-Atlantic Region of the Association for Clinical Pastoral Education. Stearns is announced as the Chapel speaker (0:00-0:14). A hymn is played (0:14-3:15). A word of prayer is given, followed by a hymn (3:16-6:40). Guest visitors for Clinical Pastoral Education Day are welcomed and Stearns is introduced (6:41-11:36). A hymn is played (cut) (11:37-11:42). Reading from Luke 10:25-37, Stearns focuses on the “good neighbor” image of ministry (11:43-16:28). He speaks of the internal difference of the three neighbors from the Scripture that caused the different responses to the injured man (16:29-17:30). Perhaps the priest and the Levite were preoccupied with their cultural duties or other matters (17:31-20:34). The Samaritan showed compassion, implying that he was a man willing to care and a man who had experienced brokenness (20:35-22:03). Stearns then mentions that we all have a little of the priest and Levite in us (22:04-23:37). He also suggests that maybe the Samaritan was fulfilling the law to love God and others by showing compassion (23:38-24:05). Believers have a common bond that causes us to come to together to answer God’s call to ministry (24:06-26:27). Stearns ends with a final word on the good neighbor image: we are one body that God calls on to minister to others (26:28-28:21). A word of prayer concludes the service (28:22-30:37).

- Edwin Luther Copeland was Visiting Professor of Missions. A call to remember certain members is made (0:00-1:18). A word of prayer is followed by a hymn (cut) (1:19-3:25). Dr. Copeland is introduced (3:26-8:43). An anthem is sung (8:44-11:28). The Scripture reading is from Luke 10 (11:29-13:18). Dr. Copeland begins his sermon with recounting the sending out of the seventy to spread the Gospel to the Gentile world and how they received the power to liberate evil (13:19-16:58). However, Jesus informs us not to rejoice over having the power over demonic sources (16:59-17:27). Dr. Copeland explains that rejoicing over these victories can lead to pride, conceit, and arrogance, which can ultimately lead to the manipulation of people (17:28-17:50). He further states that succumbing to such arrogance of power means joining the enemy (17:51-19:15). He mentions that because we are not always victorious over evil, we should not make victories a source of rejoicing (19:16-20:15). Though Jesus said nothing can hurt us, we can still experience the power of the enemy and defeat (20:16-22:06). Dr. Copeland quotes Charles W. Ransom, regarding not allowing others to dissuade you from the call of ministry (22:07-25:31). He expresses that we should rejoice that we are saved and that we are spreading the Word (25:32-26:19). The Word is our drink, food, air, and life and it should bring us joy (26:20-27:01). A word of prayer closes the service (27:02-27:25).
