- Description:
- The service begins with prayer (00:00-03:34). There is no introduction for the speaker, Dr. William Claudius Strickland, but he was Professor of New Testament Interpretation at SEBTS. He spends his time in chapel going over six items about the nature of the Christian life (03:35-04:46). First, we live only by the grace of God (04:47-07:50). Second, there is little difference between the general existence of the Christian and non-Christian (07:51-09:56), saying thirdly that we have nothing to lose because we are not our own (09:57-10:20). Next, transitioning from general to specific, he mentions that we live in faith (10:21-13:54). He then says we live in a radical love not produced by the world but by God (13:55-14:52), and we live in hope in God (14:53-16:41). The service ends with singing (16:42-19:44).

- Description:
- The service begins with reading the lyrics of the hymn “What A Friend We Have in Jesus” (00:00-01:05) and prayer (01:06-05:05). There was no introduction for the speaker, Dr. Jesse Burton Weatherspoon, but he was Visiting Professor of Preaching. He begins by reading Jeremiah 45 and expounding on the text (05:06-13:14). He warns of our concern for self when circumstances in life close in around us. He also exhorts us to then see God as involved, not as we may think, but as He really is (13:15-17:39). He then warns of our motives in seeking good things, such as God’s glory, testing to see if we are wanting these things for ourselves or for God purely (17:40-23:04). He ends his time in prayer (23:05-23:48).

- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of a story and a brief update concerning inclement weather (00:00-03:34), entering into a time of prayer (03:35-05:14). An introduction was given for the speaker, Dr. Ralph Alderman Herring, who was a SEBTS trustee since the school’s beginning until recently. He was pastor of First Baptist Church in Salem, NC, but had resigned a year prior to this chapel, serving at the time of the chapel as SEBTS’s Secretary of the Extension Department (05:15-07:44). He begins his time with a word of welcome and a brief detailing of his position at the seminary (07:45-13:34). He focuses his message on the principle of circuitry from Jesus’s words in Mark 4:24, quoting Longfellow and another poet who express the same principle. He furthers the remainder of his sermon working from this principle (13:35-24:00). He postulates that success in the work of ministry depends on the acquisitiveness of our faith (24:01-25:31). He ends his time with prayer (25:32-26:18).

- Description:
- The service begins with the recitation of “Ring out the Old, Ring in the New” (00:00-00:46) and prayer (00:47-04:09). There was no introduction for the speaker, Dr. B. Elmo Scoggin, but he was Professor of Old Testament at SEBTS. For his message, he begins to read from Psalm 136:1-26 with the congregation. The entire chapel service is simply the reading of this text of Scripture in this manner (04:10-08:30). He ends his time with prayer (08:31-09:04).

- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of Isaiah 9:2-7 (00:00-01:41) and prayer (01:42-03:34). There was no introduction for the speaker, James Leo Green, but he was Professor of Hebrew and Old Testament at SEBTS. He begins his message with a story of a star pointing to Jesus Christ (03:35-06:15). Since the perfect star has five points, and since there are five points made about the Messiah from Isaiah’s prophecy, the two should be linked together, according to Dr. Green (06:16-06:34). First, Jesus’s name would be called Wonderful, and His character matched this perfectly (06:35-14:05). Second, Jesus’s name would be called Counselor, referring to His wisdom (14:06-19:44). Third, Jesus would be mighty God, referring to His power which could only come from God (19:45-27:00). Fourth, Jesus would be called Everlasting Father, referring to His personal relation with His people (27:01-28:36). Fifthly, Jesus’s name would be Prince of Peace, referring to His peace with God He would purchase for humans through His death on the cross (28:37-33:52). He ends his time in prayer (33:53-34:20).

- Description:
- The service begins with the reading of 2 Corinthians 9:15 (00:00-00:22), a general announcement (00:23-00:44), an introduction to the sermon on Titus 2:11-14 (00:45-02:05), and prayer (02:06-03:01). There was no introduction for the speaker, James Leo Green, but he was Professor of Hebrew and Old Testament at SEBTS. The topic of grace is entertained historically and textually from the passage in Titus (03:02-15:18). To be saved is to be forgiven and made acceptable in the presence of Holy God (15:19-16:59). The primary purpose is the appearance of God’s grace is the creation and cultivation of Christlike character and conduct in us (17:00-21:03). He ends his time in prayer (21:04-21:42).

- Description:
- This service was organized by the Student Coordinating Council, and the service begins with prayer (00:00-03:16). There was no introduction for the speaker, Jim Baucom, but he was a student at SEBTS. He begins by exposing the secularization of religion in America, becoming only a set of rules leading to moralism, devoid of the gospel; religion retreats into the walls of the church house and becomes institutionalized and couched in a secret vocabulary (03:17-08:51). He then illustrates total acceptance and total rejection (08:52-10:47) before applying it to the lives of Christians, stressing the need to merge religion with daily life (10:48-15:11). He ends his time in prayer (15:12-15:41).
