Description

• Hugh O. Chambliss was Executive Director of Missions for the Madison Baptist Association in Huntsville, AL. The service begins with a word of prayer (00:00-00:50). The speaker reads Psalm 33:8-12 (00:51-01:32). Ginger Smith sings a song (01:33-04:23). Chambliss begins his sermon by speaking of the joy of being on Southeastern’s campus for the summer term (04:24-05:49). He states that the subject of his sermon is on the minister and his community, and he describes his home community of Huntsville, AL (05:50-10:23). Chambliss first point is that the minister influences the conscience of the community, and he uses the Presbyterian minister Brother Bryan as an example of a minister who held influence over the conscience of the city of Birmingham (10:24-14:40). His second point is that the minister is the counselor of the community (14:41-18:42). His third point is that the minister is the community’s comfort (18:43-22:27). Chambliss concludes his sermon by arguing that the minister can take on the three roles of conscience, counselor, and comforter of the community because he is called by God to take on these roles (22:28-25:30).
