- Description:
- This audio recording features two church services at Central United Methodist Church in Atlanta, Georgia held on February 25, 1979 and February 4, 1979, respectively in the order of the recording. The proceedings of the February 25 service include songs and a sermon delivered by Joseph E. Lowery (at 00:03:17). In his sermon, Lowery continues his series about the disciples of Jesus, this time speaking about Andrew the Apostle. Lowery discusses the importance of staying concerned and committed to those closest to us by being a committed, selfless missionary of Jesus, and his sermon is followed by songs and scripture readings. At 00:49:55, the audio switches to a partial recording of the February 4 service, in which Lowery continues his series of sermons on the disciples, continuing his remarks about the disciple Peter from a previous sermon. In his sermon, Lowery emphasizes being indebted to Jesus despite His faults and sharing the universal love of God. The recording concludes with songs.
