SEBTS Chapel - Albert L. Meiburg November 15, 1988
- Description
- Albert L. Meiburg was SEBTS Professor of Pastoral Theology. Meiburg is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:09). A hymn is played (0:10-2:17). Scripture is read, with the second reading from 2 Corinthians 5:1-10 (2:18-5:00). A word of prayer is followed by the choir singing a song of worship (5:01-10:40). Meiburg begins his sermon with a focus on dreams and how they can both define and confine us (10:41-15:11). He presents the question: can we learn and grow from the pain of a dream that dies? (15:12-16:48). He reads the story of the two disciples on the road to Emmaus in Luke 24 who had their hope of a king coming to restore Israel die (16:49-19:09). Meiburg explains that the disciples experience a four-stage process, with the first stage being the failure of the dream (19:10-19:43). The next stage is the search for meaning/grief’s slow wisdom: this stage involves the slow process of us opening up to what God says during this grievous time just as the disciples did as they talked to Jesus on the road to Emmaus (19:44-21:13). Meiburg reveals the third stage as the illuminating presence, when the disciples’ eyes were opened and discovered new truths (Jesus being resurrected) (21:14-22:49). The response of action is the final stage, marked by the disciples’ sudden return to Jerusalem to see the other disciples (22:50-23:41). Meiburg ends by reinforcing that when a dream dies, we must seek new truths and act in faith (23:42-27:44). The service closes with a benediction (27:45-28:22).
