2. SEBTS Page Lecture - Fisher Humphries September 27, 1988

La description:
Fisher Humphries was Professor of Theology at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. Humphries is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:28). Two hymns are played (0:29-4:37). A word of prayer is given, followed by another hymn (cut) (4:38-6:44). Humphries is introduced (6:45-9:43). Humphries thanks the Seminary for allowing him to speak (9:44-13:27). Based on 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24, Humphries’ message concerns sanctification and spiritual formation (13:28-15:51). He provides four examples of believers’ self transcending impulse towards God: freedom, the need to understand, a desire for happiness, and the impulse to love and be loved (15:52-17:44). All these impulses are fulfilled in God, as spiritual formation (17:45-18:33). Humphries states that the best analogy of spiritual formation is one’s influence over another without manipulation (18:34-20:53). He plans to speak on two means of spiritual formation, the church and the Bible; the lecture on the church is for this day’s message while the one on the Bible is for the following day’s message (20:54-23:25). The church is both an institution and a fellowship, but God is more concerned with the people not an organization (23:26-24:53). Humphries explains that the church as an organization consists of people who contribute to spiritual formation and asks whether this is true of the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) where opposition exists (24:54-27:23). He discusses Liberal Protestantism, Fundamentalism as a response to the former movement, and finally Evangelicalism which resulted due to the problems of Fundamentalism (27:24-32:42). However, disagreements in the Evangelicalism movement have occurred because it did not plant strong roots (34:43-38:31). Humphries compares the SBC, with its unstable foundation, to this movement; it also needs to strengthen its roots (34:38-38:31). He does say that God has and is using the SBC for spiritual formation despite its flaws, as the church has never been perfect and the church’s mission continues to be performed (38:32-40:19). He reinforces that the church is the people of God and a place of spiritual formation (40:20-42:47). He concludes with a recitation of the scripture reading from 1 Thessalonians (42:48-43:51). A word of prayer is given, and a hymn ends the service (43:16-46:13).

3. SEBTS Chapel - Nancy Osborne March 5, 1986

La description:
The service begins with a call to worship through a responsive reading (0:00-0:99). The congregation is encouraged to examine their hearts, confess their sins and sorrows, and are led in prayer (1:00-5:25). Osborne reads from Genesis 1 and speaks about the powerful affirmation of being created in the image of God (5:26-6:32). She speaks about how our words and experience are tied together, giving examples of familiar images we associate with God (6:33-7:48). Osborne suggests the image of God as mother, which she believes to be colorful and new (7:49-8:40). She suggests that all the attributes of stereotypical males and females are attributes which we find in God, saying, “Just as the characteristics we typify as male or female are present in the humanness of all humans, so they are equally present in the godness of God” (8:41-9:43). Osborne argues that the female language of faith has been overlooked over the centuries in favor of the male language of faith, and that both aspects should be considered in relation to God and people (9:44-13:22). There is a litany of thanksgiving (13:23-15:04). Another speaker shares about how all people are made in the image of God and that creation would not be the same without people (15:05-16:40). One’s view on Jesus shifts based on the understanding that people are made in the image of God, that people are not called to be like Jesus, yet still image bearers of God (16:41-19:04). She shares moments when she saw the image of God played out (19:05-22:22). There is a litany of thanksgiving for people who have lived out God’s image in their day and who have worked to see free the image of God in others, such as the Hebrew midwives who subverted the power of Pharaoh, stuttering Moses, courageous Ruth, timid Mary, Sojourner Truth, Martin Luther King Jr., and others, including those who have personally touched the lives of the congregation (22:23-27:00). There is a congregational prayer and responsive reading (27:01-28:10).

4. SEBTS Chapel - Russell Jones March 6, 1986

La description:
Disclaimer: The first portion of the service is inaudible. Russell Jones was an MDiv student at Southeastern Seminary. The service begins with Scripture readings (0:00-1:59). Several women give a presentation about the birth of Jesus (2:00-5:03). Jones shares his thoughts about women who have been called into ministry and reads from Galatians 3:28 (5:04-6:19). Jones admits to being a skeptic when it comes to Scripture, especially about God’s acceptance, and he speaks on the difficulty of hearing Paul say there is not a division to be made between types of people (6:20-7:40). He speaks on tearing down the walls of what a minister is supposed to be like, removing the masculine and feminine labels and replacing them with attributes devoid of gender assumptions (7:41-12:13). Jones argues that “denying church ordination to a person on the basis of sex” does a great injustice (12:14-18:29). The congregation shares in reciting the litany of affirmation (18:30-20:59). The service ends with a benediction (21:00-21:33).
