SEBTS Chapel - Allen Douglas Aldrich January 6, 1961
Descrição:
The service begins with the reading of John 4:23-24 (00:00-00:28), an announcement (00:29-01:07), and prayer (01:08-02:36). Dr. Trotter introduces the speaker, the Reverend Allen Douglas Aldrich, who was the pastor of Forest Hills Baptist Church in Raleigh, NC (02:37-04:17). His message centers on Matthew 6:28. He begins his message by drawing attention to the growing edge of God’s hand which our lives must be subject to (04:18-13:02). The growth of our lives is determined by the vitality of our daily experience of prayer (13:03-14:25), on the basis of the tone of the thoughts on which we feed our lives (14:26-15:31), and by our involvement in relationships through the Church (15:32-18:30). When the growth happens, there is a gradual unfolding of the unique nature of what is growing; this growth cannot happen unless there is death, focusing us on the cross of Christ (18:31-22:41). He ends in prayer (22:42-23:43).

SEBTS Convocation - Samuel Howard Miller September 8, 1960 PM
Descrição:
The service begins with prayer (00:00-01:18), and 2 Corinthians 4:1-15 is read aloud before praying again (01:19-06:19). Dr. Miller, the Dean of Harvard Divinity School, is introduced according to his educational, ministerial, and working background. The title of his message is “Faith Beyond Conformity” (06:20-08:18). Dr. Miller begins by talking about the importance and rarity of actually living in your own epoch instead of trying to keep another epoch alive outside of its time (08:19-19:32). He mentions that three recent breakthroughs in the history of humanity have expanded the reach of human sin: spacial (interstellar) exploration and great power, a deep exploration of the human’s life (psychology), and the new creation of a world order via science, industry, and transportation. He mentions these because it is the task of the openness of faith to unite the inner man with the outer environment so that the two are integrated in meaning (19:33-26:45). The Christian Faith in man is complex, and it must continually respond to the questions raised against it by each epoch’s key figures; to be faithful to the first century but to deny the needs of one’s own century is indeed not Christian at all (26:46-35:55). The Christian Faith reconciles honest contradictions into beautiful unity through reconciliation and atonement (to save life is to lose it, and to lose life now is to save it) (35:56-47:29). The service closes with the reading of Ephesians 3:20-21 (47:30-48:03).

There was no formal introduction for G. Avery Lee, but he was pastor of St. Charles Avenue Baptist Church in New Orleans, Louisiana, and focused his ministry on college/seminary campuses. He made dedicated commitments to bettering race relations and served as Chairman of the Christian Life Commission from 1961-62. He gives various introductory courtesies (00:00-02:56), and his sermon builds from his previous sermon on February 10, 1966, focusing on “The Acceptable Year of the Lord” taken from John 12:27 (02:57-03:20). Lee outlines key facets of making this year (1966) the acceptable year of the Lord. Firstly, we must take seriously the explosion in knowledge and its effects on our seminaries and economy (03:21-12:41). Secondly, we must have an acute sense of responsibility, which Lee thinks is our top weakness in our churches and as a society (12:42-20:12). Thirdly, our Christian development must give us a sense of concern as we seek to avoid both conformity and complacency. He focuses this point on global missions, encouraging his listeners that obedience, not results, is what God requires of us (20:13-34:32). He closes the service in prayer (34:33-36:17).
