- B. Elmo Scoggin was Professor of Hebrew and Old Testament. The service begins with a word of prayer (00:00-01:46). B. Elmo Scoggin is introduced as the Faculty Lecturer (01:47-05:55). Scoggin begins his lecture by tracing the history of the people of Israel from the call of Abraham to the creation of the modern Israeli state in the 1948 (05:56-20:35). He argues that idea of an Arab Palestinian state is a part of a big political lie based on an antisemitic bias, and he believes that the truth is the Arab states have a united hatred of Israel and an interest in destroying the sovereign state (20:36-35:57). Scoggin concludes with the question of how we can account to God if we allow Israel to be wiped out, and he argues that our own self-preservation is at stake if we tolerate antisemitism (35:58-53:10). The service ends with a benediction (53:11-54:31).

- Walter B. Shurden was Professor of Church History at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. The service begins with a word of prayer (00:00-00:50). Walter B. Shurden is introduced as the Carver-Barnes Lecturer (00:51-06:25). Shurden’s lecture is entitled “The Southern Baptist Synthesis: Is it Cracking,” and he begins by stating that Southern Baptists have built a synthesis that began in the eighteenth century that is starting to erode (06:26-11:12). He states that the Southern Baptist tradition began in Charleston, SC, and that tradition had five characteristics: pietistic puritanism, Calvinistic confessionalism, quasi connectionism, church liturgicalism, and a commitment to theological education, all defined by order (11:13-18:10). Shurden then moves to the Sandy Creek tradition of Southern Baptists which was defined by its ardor, and it had four characteristics: revivalism, charismatic ministry, rugged independence, and strict biblicism (18:11-25:04). He then speaks about the Georgia tradition of Southern Baptists which was defined by local color, and this tradition was characterised by denominationalism and sectionalism (25:05-31:10). He then speaks about the Tennessee tradition of Southern Baptists which was defined by questionable honor, and this tradition gave Southern Baptist a sense of identity based on a fallacious history (31:11-33:18). Shurden believes that denominationalism won out and brought these four traditions together, but denominationalism is under attack (33:19-40:17). He believes there have been four stress points that is bringing cracks to the Southern Baptist synthesis, and these stress points are cultural stress, denominational stress, and financial stress (40:18-45:14). Shurden concludes his lecture by stating that the Southern Baptist synthesis is not breaking, but it is being reshaped (45:15-48:05). The service ends with a word of prayer (48:06-49:01).

- Description:
- Walter B. Shurden was Professor of Church History at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. The service begins with a Scripture reading and a word of prayer (00:00-01:12). Walter B. Shurden is introduced as the Carver-Barnes Lecturer (01:13-02:01). Shurden’s lecture is entitled “The Estrangement Debate,” and he gives an overview and historical context of four Southern Baptists controversies: the fundamentalist controversy, the Elliot controversy, the Broadman controversy, and the Inherency controversy (02:02-18:39). He turns to the issues surrounding the four controversies, and he believes that the debate surrounds the interpretation of the Bible, not the importance of the Bible (18:40-27:23). Shurden then speaks on the issue of methods used in the four controversies, and he believes those who are leading the inherency debate are going for the minds of people and the machinery of the convention (27:24-40:03). Shurden concludes his lecture by commenting on the consequences of the four controversies, and he believes that polarizations will affect the convention because of the inherency debate (40:04-44:30). The service ends with a benediction (44:31-45:04).

John Claypool begins his lecture by speaking on the privilege to share a stage with Theodore Adam (0:07:55-0:09:04). He continues to speak on the question from the previous lecture about the aim of Christian ministry, and he says that the problem of our restless fulfilment begins with the first humans who chose fulfilment outside of God (01:09:05-0:15:22). Claypool moves to the topic of the current lecture, and he first investigates the nature of humans being image bearers and the need in ministry to value image bearers (0:15:23-0:42:11). He brings up the story of the prodigal son, and he uses the story to describe the process of a good minister faithfully working to bring the lost soul back to Christ (0:42:12-0:55:20).

The service ends with a word of prayer and a benediction (1:01:03-1:02:17).
