Undecipherable music (3:40-7:20). Dr. Parks begins his message and focuses on the challenges and responsibility of accurately communicating the gospel to others (7:20-13:42). He introduces and reads passages from 1 Corinthians 4 and Ephesians 2 and 3 (13:42-18:45). His thesis is that God’s calling involving salvation and direction of life is a calling to become his steward, responsible for the good news of salvation which requires of everyone trustworthiness in completing the task (18:45-19:50). He illustrates this with a story about good stewardship (19:50-24:23). He exhorts that believers must recognize the lordship of God who created everything and that we must fulfill our stewardship faithfully, to be trustworthy (24:23-25:20).

He says it requires the sacrifice of the steward’s interest so that the gospel might go forward (25:20-32:05). He states that choice is the highest compliment a steward can be paid by God and that stewards must make hard decisions in order to help the gospel spread (32:05-36:00). The gospel is for all the earth and when we are saved, we must go tell everyone (36:00-39:50) He discusses the great potential of the Southern Baptists to share the gospel with the world (39:50-47:00).
