- Description:
- Dr. John Keating Wiles was Assistant Professor of Old Testament at SEBTS. Dr. Wiles is announced as Chapel speaker (poor quality) (0:00-0:31). A hymn is played (cut) (0:32-2:44). Psalm 51:10-13 is read (2:45-3:15). The choir sings a hymn (3:16-6:47). Another Scripture reading comes from Isaiah 32:9-20 (6:48-8:46). Prayer requests are made (8:47-9:54). A word of prayer is given (9:55-11:50). Dr. Wiles speaks of how Isaiah addresses the women of Israel and tells them to mourn for the upcoming changes of their world (11:51-16:00). He emphases the difference between kings and prophets: kings do not call people to mourn when encountering changes, instead they instruct the people to forget the past, ignore the present, and look on the positive side (16:01-16:35). Kings use the managerial approach in life which focuses on statistics and budgets (16:36-18:24). Dr. Wiles discusses how prophets provide words of realism when they call people to live and die in a world that changes (18:25-21:14). Whereas kings and managers depend on continuity and do not expect real change, prophets realize that every historical world has an end and that God is in control (21:15-23:50). Dr. Wiles explains that kings and managers believe that their worlds will last forever (23:51-25:16). When God’s spirit pours out to end the mourning, fruitfulness will abide in the new world (25:17-26:44). Self-absorbed kings and managers do not know this kind of new world because they live in a fantasy world, not a historical world of change (26:45-27:57). Dr. Wiles concludes with a word on how we must not follow the managerial approach to life; we must allow the pouring out of God’s spirit to give us hope for a new world during our mourning (27:58-29:35). A word of prayer is given (29:36-29:54). Two hymns end the service (29:36-32:59).

- Description:
- Dr. Jim Shaddix was senior Professor of Preaching at SEBTS. Dr. Daniel Akin welcomes listeners and provides the Seminary’s mission statement (0:00-0:32). A Scripture reading from Matthew 7 is given (0:33-0:49). Shaddix begins his sermon, which focuses on the Golden Rule (Matthew 7:12) (0:50-5:39). There are three components he will discuss relating to the rule being used for a Great Commission School: 1) the rule itself, 2) the relationships guided by the rule, and 3) the reason for the rule (5:40-8:30). Multiple versions of the rule in history exist (8:31-10:30). However, these versions differ from Jesus’ version because they all are negative statements (10:31-12:19). The rule has often been and continues to be stated as “do not unto others that which you would not do unto them,” and thus is used as a tool for self-protection and self-preservation (12:20-12:59). Jesus’ version serves as a positive and proactive guide on how we should treat others with no consideration of how they treat us (“do to others that which you would wish to be done to you”) (13:00-14:51). This rule is positive because it is inconsistent with the negativity of the other versions since God is the opposite of negativity (14:52-16:34). It is also inconsistent with the guilt of man: the popular versions encourage people to do nothing in order to fulfill the rule and hence have the end result of people being guilty of passivity (16:35-18:10). Jesus does not want a church where passivity is present, but a church that is active in its response to God’s call (18:11-20:49). Shaddix then refers to verses 7-11, as he discusses how the rule guides our relationships and how we are to practice righteous discrimination by first looking at our own sins before we can help others realize their sins (20:50-31:00). He presents the reason for the Golden Rule (“this is the law and the prophets”) and explains that Jesus was referring to Himself as He had come to fulfill the law and the prophets’ sayings in the Old Testament (31:01-36:50). He concludes by saying that Jesus came to treat us as He wished we would treat Him (36:51-38:59). Shaddix gives a word of prayer (39:00-40:07). Akin gives a final word (40:08-41:11).

- Description:
- Dr. Jim Shaddix was senior Professor of Preaching at SEBTS. Shaddix begins his sermon reading from 2 Timothy 1:15-18 (0:00-2:24). Just as Paul refers to spreading the Gospel as running a race, Shaddix compares the relay event in track and field to spreading the Gospel: passing on the baton is similar to passing on the Gospel to others (2:25-7:27). In his epistle, Paul writes to a struggling Timothy who is on the verge of quitting the race, but Paul encourages him not to desert the race (7:28-9:00). Shaddix states that everyone is called into the race to preserve the Gospel and pass it on to others (9:01-9:38). To help Timothy, Paul provides examples of “runners” who deserted the race and who were devoted to it (9:39-12:16). Those that walked away from completing the race, deserted the Gospel (12:17-13:32). However, Paul mentions one man, Onesiphorus, who sacrificed his life to spread the Gospel, and Paul encourages Timothy to be like this man (13:33-18:16). Shaddix then presents Paul’s three instructions to Timothy with the first one telling him to depend on God’s grace for strength in this race (18:17-26:36). The second instruction is to develop devoted disciple-makers who will continue to spread the Gospel (26:37-28:46). Shaddix explains that discipleship is key to spreading the Gospel and that there will always be someone who desires to pass on the Gospel baton (28:47-31:28). The third instruction is to share in the sufferings that comes with spreading the Gospel (31:29-33:58). Shaddix speaks of how Paul is trying to tell Timothy that sharing the Word is not an easy task; there will be hardships (33:59-35:42). He then gives Paul’s three illustrations in the second chapter of 2 Timothy that demonstrate how we are to fulfill the Gospel race: denial, discipline, and diligence (35:43-36:13). Like a soldier, we must deny ourselves certain things in life (36:14-37:02). Passing on the Gospel to others requires discipline—rules must be followed (37:03-37:19). We must be diligent in this race as it can be tiresome work (37:20-38:18). Shaddix makes the congregation aware of not letting gifted people miss the opportunity of running the Gospel race because they were not provided with a stable “baton” (38:19-39:39). He concludes with asking the congregation to pray to God to give them the strength to successfully pass on the Gospel baton (39:40-40:20).

- Description:
- Dr. Jim Shaddix was senior Professor of Preaching at SEBTS. Dr. Daniel Akin welcomes listeners and provides the Seminary’s mission statement (0:00-0:31). Shaddix’s sermon focuses on worrying less about answering God’s call to mission (0:32-3:38). He states that anxiousness arises usually due to the uncertainty of being financially secure in ministry work (3:39-6:07). He presents nine points on worry in his sermon, “Worry-less Ministry,” which is based on the passage in Matthew 6:25-34 (6:08-7:02). The first point is the principle Jesus discusses that involves God promising to take care of His children’s needs in order for them to fully occupy themselves with pursuing Him and His kingdom (7:03-9:00). Shaddix defines worry in the Bible as being distracted from absorbing oneself with God (9:01-14:32). He then discusses four distractions, with the first one being material things (14:33-14:44). He uses the parable of the seeds in Mark 4 to convey that we become absorbed with satisfying our material needs (14:45-16:49). The second distraction is service, and Shaddix refers to Martha’s anxiousness of serving people instead of sitting at Jesus’ feet with Mary in Luke 10:38 (16:50-18:47). Another distraction is one’s spouse: Paul says in 1 Corinthians 7:32 that married people are focused more on worldly things than God due to them obtaining more responsibilities that come with marriage (18:48-24:08). Suffering is the fourth distraction that can consume our time (verse reference is Philippians 4:4-9) (24:09-25:54). Shaddix proclaims that Jesus will take care of you so you do not have to worry and can give all your attention to God (25:55-26:43). However, we have become more absorbed in material needs and have placed answering God’s call to minister second in our lives (26:44-27:18). Next, Shaddix gives three applications, with the first one being to “minister for more than maintenance,” for more than just meeting your needs (27:19-29:36). Acting like a child and allowing God to take care of you is the second application (29:37-33:29). Do not try to be God is the third application: we must let God have full control in our lives (33:30-34:13). Shaddix ends his sermons with an exhortation to seize the day by applying the principle of not worrying (34:14-35:55). He gives a word of prayer (35:56-36:32). Akin gives a final word (36:33-37:35).
