Description

• William Randall Lolley was the third president of SEBTS. The commencement begins with a word of prayer (0:00-2:12). It continues with Scripture reading and another word of prayer (2:13-8:04). President Lolley speaks of the birth and growth of SEBTS and introduces Linda Lee Baker, Senior Class Representative (8:05-12:44). Baker presents a gift to the Lolleys (12:45-15:14). Lolley thanks the graduates for the gift (15:15-16:37). The choir sings a song of worship (16:38-20:20). Dean Morris Ashcraft presents awards to certain graduates (20:21-31:27). The choir sings another song of worship (31:28-34:54). Lolley congratulates the graduates and discusses freedom for all to accept the call to minister (34:55-41:09). Lolley dedicates the night and offers a word of prayer (41:10-42:24). Lolley begins his sermon, based on the three dimensions of ministry found in John 13:1-17 (42:25-42:46). The first dimension is the “means” of ministry, referring to the discovery of ministry (42:47-45:36). The second dimension is the “method” of ministry: servitude (45:37-51:55). The third dimension is the “ends” of ministry, regarding the uniqueness of individual ministries (51:57-1:00:15). Lolley ends with promising the graduates that it is alright to make mistakes and recites from the poet Rudyard Kipling (1:00:16-1:03:00). The event is concluded with a word of prayer (1:03:01-1:03:36).
