2676. SEBTS Chapel - Jim Shaddix February 18, 2010
- Description:
- Dr. Jim Shaddix was senior Professor of Preaching at SEBTS. Dr. Daniel Akin welcomes listeners and introduces Jim Shaddix (0:00-0:35). Shaddix asks the congregation to turn to Matthew 28; he focuses on defining discipleship (0:36-3:46). He decides to “unpackage” the essence of discipleship: there are three components (3:47-6:34). First, discipleship begins with accepting Jesus as the Son of God and the Savior of the world, but one must be careful in celebrating because this is only the beginning of discipleship (6:35-13:09). Second, knowing that Jesus is the Son of God and the Savior involves the Cross, for the Gospel is incomplete without the Cross (13:10-21:27). The Cross is part of the Gospel that we cannot live without, as it is the power of salvation (21:28-23:40). Shaddix reveals that in addition to realizing that Jesus is the Son of God and the Savior who died on the Cross, a third component to discipleship exists (23:41-24:04). This key component is “denying oneself and unashamedly living for Jesus” (24:05-30:37). Taking up one’s cross leaves no room for things of tomorrow; we must only follow Jesus (30:38-33:30). All three components define the true essence of discipleship, and thus, are all required to achieve discipleship (33:31-36:07). Shaddix concludes by saying that discipleship centers on carrying one’s cross as a follower, not just a friend, of Jesus (36:08-37:27). He then gives a word of prayer (37:28-38:07). Dr. Akin gives a final word (38:07-39:25).

Farrar honors Jesus as his Lord and Savior as well as expresses gratitude towards the Seminary’s faculty and staff (13:55-15:00). He speaks of Martin Luther King being not only a Civil Rights leader, but also a prophet of a utopian vision (15:01-17:26). Farrar discusses the need of social justice and brotherhood within the world and the Christian community (17:27-19:39). He provides examples of social justice in the biblical books of Amos, Isaiah, and Micah (19:40-21:28). Voices must be used to promote social justice (21:29-24:03). The prophets Nathan, Elijah, Malachi, and John voiced God’s words (24:04-25:06). Farrar concludes with mentioning that with God, we can create a land of hope if we use love as a motivation and guide (25:07-29:05). Farrar’s message is praised (cut) (29:06-29:07).

2678. SEBTS Chapel - Jim Shaddix April 9, 2013
- Description:
- Dr. Jim Shaddix was senior Professor of Preaching at SEBTS. Shaddix begins with asking the congregation to turn to Acts 6, focusing on ministry (0:00-6:22). The passage’s theme is church growth, but Shaddix delves deeper and discusses how the New Testament church overcame challenges to growth (6:23-11:36). The New Testament church leaders embraced their roles as stewards of God’s Word (11:37-12:31). Shaddix presents three answers to overcoming challenges of church growth (12:32-13:17). First, as a living organism, the church must grow by the Gospel; the church must be rooted by the Gospel (13:18-19:29). Second, as faithful stewards, we must protect the witness of the Gospel (19:30-23:52). Shaddix reveals that the New Testament church leaders protected two primary agents for Gospel advancing: prayer and preaching (23:53-24:19). Just as the New Testament leaders, we need to understand that prayer is how we unleash the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives (24:20-29:22). Regarding preaching, the New Testament church leaders referred to it as “distributing” the Gospel as they physically went out into secular places and spoke the Word (29:23-35:05). They grounded themselves by prayer while they distributed the Gospel to others (35:06-36:09). Third, we must share the work of the Gospel (36:10-39:07). Shaddix speaks about why the New Testament church leaders shared the Gospel: to minister to not just the poor, but also to all people so that they can spread the Word (39:08-46:00). Everyone who are saved are called to share the Gospel (46:01-46:22). Shaddix closes with three challenges for the congregation: 1) make time for prayer, 2) assign tasks for people in your church, and 3) lead your church to care for the disenfranchised (46:23-49:01). He gives a word of prayer (49:02-49:53).

2679. SEBTS Chapel - Jim Shaddix February 16, 2010
- Description:
- Dr. Jim Shaddix was senior Professor of Preaching at SEBTS. Dr. Daniel Akin welcomes listeners and introduces Jim Shaddix (0:00-0:32). Shaddix asks the congregation to turn to Ezra 8 and thanks the Seminary for allowing him to speak (0:33-1:40). His sermon focuses on spreading the Word without a backup plan, hence the title “Ministering Without a Backup Plan” (1:41-2:25). He reads from Ezra 8 (starting from verse 21) and gives a story about his unsuccessful attempt at growing a church (2:26-6:13). Shaddix describes two types of economies, with the first economy being one where growth/numbers mean success (6:14-7:09). The second economy is one similar to Ezra’s economy where no backup plan exists, where we have to depend on God showing up and revealing His glory (7:10-8:56). Shaddix provides three answers to what ministering without a backup plan looks like (8:57-9:13). First, it involves taking risks for the sake of God’s call to us to spread the Gospel: titles and salaries are not secure when we answer His call (9:14-16:16). Jesus talks of being prepared to give up everything in order to follow Him, but He will always be there by our sides (16:17-22:08). Second, having no backup plan is evident when we are jealous for God’s honor, when we desire for His glory to be shown (22:09-32:31). Third, it involves us humbling ourselves in desperate prayer, depending on God’s strength and crying out for God to show His glory (32:32-37:51). Shaddix concludes with saying that it is hard to minister without a backup plan and gives the congregation two challenges (37:02-38:37). He tells them to “make ministry moves that require God to show up” and to “make sacrificial prayer and fasting” (38:38-39:57). He then provides a word of prayer (39:58-41:07). Dr. Akin gives a final word (41:08-42:25).

2680. SEBTS Chapel - Jim Shaddix February 16, 2016
- Description:
- Dr. Jim Shaddix was senior Professor of Preaching at SEBTS. Shaddix begins his sermon by reading from the book of Haggai with a focus on the question, “are you in hot pursuit of the effects and influences of the Holy Spirit in your life? (0:00-4:25). He reads about the time when the prophet Haggai beckons Israel to return to rebuilding the Temple (4:26-6:12). He tells the congregation he is going to address three questions: what is the relevance of this passage, what is the problem presented, and what is the solution? (6:13-6:32). To answer the first question, Shaddix explains that the Temple represents Christ’s presence, the laborers represent us as Christ’s followers, and the laborers’ lack of pursuing the rebuilding of the Temple represents our lack of pursuing the effects of the Holy Spirit in our lives (6:33-13:43). He states that if we presume the experience of the Holy Spirit in our lives, we cannot fully experience the full effects (13:44-14:37). Shaddix then presents the problem, which is that God’s people paused their work (14:38-15:22). Three reasons exist as to why they stopped working that can be applied to why today we presume the effects of the Holy Spirit (15:23-16:01). The first reason is that our enemies deter us from our pursuit (16:02-17:31). The second reason involves being discouraged by the lack of results in our ministry efforts (17:32-19:45). Allowing excess and pursuits of comfort to distract us is the third reason (19:46-22:52). Shaddix provides a three-component solution with the first component involving obeying the Word of God and returning to our work as His laborers (22:53-24:37). The second part of the solution is to fear the discipline of God (24:38-27:54). Rely on the grace of God comprises the third component (27:55-29:44). Shaddix concludes with how the solution can lead to our hot pursuit of the effects of Christ’s presence in our lives (29:45-31:53). He gives a word of prayer (31:54-32:37).
