Description

• Morris Ashcraft was Professor of Theology and Dean of the Faculty. The service begins with President Randall Lolley reads from Philippians 3, and he gives a word of prayer (00:00-01:50). Morris Ashcraft is introduced as the chapel speaker (01:51-03:15). Ashcraft begins his sermon by reading from Ephesians 5:15-21 (03:16-04:16). Ashcraft’s message centers on the phrase “make most of the time you have,” and he begins by using a farming strategy to reap the most from the harvest as a way explaining this phrase (04:17-10:45). He says the first implication of Paul’s words is opportunity (10:46-21:21). The second implication of Paul’s words is responsibility (21:22-27:00). Ashcraft concludes his sermon with a word of prayer (27:01-27:30).
