- Lloyd Elder served as executive vice president of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and was the president of Lifeway Christian Resources (formerly the Baptist Sunday School Board). The service begins with organ music (0:00-4:12). There is a moment of prayer (4:13-5:11). Lloyd Elder is introduced as the chapel speaker (5:12-7:52). Elder expresses his appreciation for being invited to speak and for the support from the seminary (7:53-9:55). Elder intends to speak about the connection between the ministry and the local church education, specifically Sunday school (9:56-12:30). Elder shares from Titus 1 how personal experience with God is the beginning of ministry, that the central message should be the word of God, that the common faith in Jesus is the unifying linkage between individuals and generations, that the work of the gospel has been passed along, that the word of God is the authority, and that believers’ lives should be linked to ministry (13:31-19:35). Elder looks at the work of Sunday school in a way that challenges one to be their best for Christ (19:36-36:25). Elder speaks about his personal experience with the Sunday School Board and how it is linked to other organizations of ministry growth, specifically the local church (36:26-49:19). There is a moment of prayer (49:20-49:55).
