At the time of recording, Max Hill was a senior MDiv student at Southeastern. The sermon opens with prayer (0:00-0:52). Mr. Hill reads from Exodus 17:1-7 (1:00-3:00). Mr. Hill uses the phrase “Is the Lord among us, or not?” from the text to guide his sermon. He briefly reviews the story of the Exodus and discusses how this story shows the ways humans behave in distress. The people looked for a scapegoat, they looked back at Egypt, and they got into a fight (3:00-8:50). God’s response to Moses’s prayer shows the goodness of God and the theme that God provides for his people’s needs when they call on him (8:50-12:05). Mr. Hill states that humans will all at some point be in crisis and often react in ways like the Israelites did. The good news is Jesus Christ brings the living water and his presence which we need in those times and for the future (12:05-17:54). Speaker closes in prayer (17:54-18:58).

Muto reviews what was previously taught (0:07:55-0:09:01). She introduces the new obstacles to formative spirituality, which she names discouragement or burnout and anger (0:09:02-0:11:36). Muto discusses the feeling of discouragement or depletion that many people feel in their life and that one must ask introspective questions (0:11:37-0:22:09). Van Kaam argues the cause of inner despair is the temptation to believe that one’s works are capable of sustaining one instead of God (0:22:10-0:27:40). Van Kaam uses the testimony of a Jewish woman to illustrate that one must go through suffering before realizing that one cannot be sustained by one’s own works and the renewing of faith (0:27:41-0:31:55). Van Kaam speaks about how the Lord performs miracles in people that may only be revealed in eternity, putting smiles in people’s hearts and springs in their steps (0:31:56-0:40:45). Muto explains that faith is difficult to share if one does not have it for themselves (0:40:46-0:42:40). Muto explains that when a minister becomes so focused on others that they don’t minister to themselves, which can build up anger (0:42:41-0:46:35). Muto shares that one should go to the Lord instead of blaming others (0:46:36-0:47:52). Van Kaam states that nothing eats more at physical life than unrighteous anger (0:47:53-0:49:30). He explains that forgiveness is healing, especially considering that much anger is born from religious strife (0:49:31-0:55:17). Van Kaam argues that one cannot force others to have the same opinion, and one should not let anger get in the way of civil conversation (0:55:18-1:01:18). The location for further discussion with the chapel speakers is announced (1:01:19-1:02:05). The service closes with a benediction (1:02:06-1:02:22).
