TMC Chapel Messages

This blog is apparently read by more than my wife, the dog and the two students who actually liked my classes.  A positive result is that I got an email from The Master’s College library with this good news: many TMC chapel messages are already online, downloadable, for free, in mp3 format.

They are in the (slow) process of digitizing them from cassette tape and they tell me they’re up to about 1996.  I do see some sermons from after that time and some listed from before but without the sound file.

I went and wrote this whole post with links to everything and they worked great on my computer, but don’t work elsewhere.  So…it looks like you have to do it yourself.  But it’s very easy.

First go to the Library Catalog and select advanced search, and put “TMC Chapel” in the title line and the last name of a speaker in the author line.  If you don’t specify a speaker, you can look through 1,300 chapel messages, but not all of them are online at this point.

If you want to search just by year, you can do that in the basic search, by inputing “tmcc 92” (or whatever year) and find results in “call number browse.”

Some of those listed include:

21 sermons by Doug Bookman

24 sermons by Dewey Bertolini

41 sermons by Mark Tatlock

15 sermons by Harry Walls

176 sermons by John MacArthur

3 sermons by John Pilkey

36 sermons by Bob or Robb Provost

3 sermons by Stuart Scott

3 messages by Elisabeth Elliot

12 messages by Betty Price

They even have one by me.

It’s been fun looking through the catalog as it brings back memories of my college days.  There were many memorable sermons, and some memorable for reasons other than intended.  One of the days perhaps I will make a list of memorable sermons for you to check out.  Here are two for now (with direct links to mp3 files):

The Glory of God, by Doug Bookman

Single Celebration, by Dewey Bertolini

Many, many thanks to the college for their efforts in sharing these messages to all and without charge.
