David R. Beck was Professor of New Testament and Greek. He begins his sermon by asking the question “why am I here?” (00:00-07:27). Beck reads from 2 Timothy 2:1-15, and he states that he will walk through the seven imperatives in the passage (07:28-13:55). Beck walks through the seven imperative and delivers them to the audience as life lessons for the Christian, and his answer to the question, “why am I here,” is to serve the Lord diligently and be a faithful witness to him (13:56-36:36).
