- Description
- John Rowan Claypool, IV was the pastor of Northminster Baptist Church in Jackson, MS. The service begins with a word of prayer (0:00:00-0:0:46). John Rowan Claypool, IV is introduced as the Adams Lecturer (0:00:47-0:03:31). The choir sings a song of worship (0:03:32-0:08:27). John Claypool begins his lecture by reviewing the messages of his previous lectures on seeking fulfilment in Christ and caring for those who are image bearers (0:08:28-0:17:35). He then moves to the topic of his current lecture, and he brings up the distorted image of God experienced in childhood to show his audience the need for a right image of God (0:17:36-0:23:55). Claypool gives three points on the preaching of the gospel: we are related to God, God is in a category of his own, and God wants to have a relationship with humankind (0:23:56-0:32:48). Claypool tells a personal childhood story of his developing understanding of God, and he concludes his lecture by saying that he believes that his relationship with God was given and established by God himself (0:32:49-1:00:40). The service ends with a benediction (1:00:41-1:01:31).
