A Chariot of Horses

Worship Service: Family (may include music) - January 07, 2024

"A Lion on a Watchtower"

Worship Service: Sermon only - January 07, 2024

He Came to Fulfill

Worship Service: Family (may include music) - January 01, 2023

Having completed another circle around the Sun, we have the opportunity to look back on the previous year and also to look forward to the new one we are entering now. In the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5), the Lord invites us into a new way of understanding and loving with these words, “It has been said… but I say to you.” These words embody the spirit of the new year, in which we leave behind who we were and become more and more the image and likeness of our Creator. | By Rev. Jeffrey Smith | Bryn Athyn Cathedral

Fullness of State

Worship Service: Sermon only - January 01, 2023

Each new year that comes around completes a cycle of time. The passing of time can highlight a feeling that life is repetitious and that we haven’t gained any spiritual ground since the last cycle of time that came and went. However, the Lord is preparing us, slowly filling the empty places in our spirits until they are full. A completed cycle is symbolic of what our Teachings call a “fullness of state” – that moment in which we have been aptly prepared for our continued spiritual journeys, and that moment when, in humility, we are ready to let the Lord in. | By Rev. Jeffrey Smith | Bryn Athyn Cathedral

Where Have You Come From and Where are You Going

Worship Service: Informal Family - January 02, 2022

As we start a new year, it’s useful to reflect on the questions that the angel of the Lord asks Hagar in the desert: Where are you coming from? Where are you going? And what’s the matter? | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSA

Re-Creation

Worship Service: Informal Family - January 10, 2021

As we begin a New Year, we will look at the story of the beginning of all things in the depiction of Creation in Genesis. How does each day of the Creation story describe aspects of new beginnings in our spiritual growth and resolutions that we may focus on in the new year? | By Rev. Solomon J. Keal | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall

Responding to Opportunities for Growth

Worship Service: Sermon only - January 03, 2021

The beginning of a new year is a time that encourages people to think of the poast year and reflect on the new year beginning. Most of us would acknowledge that the last nearly ten months have been far from easy for many of us. What would the Lord like us to take away from these experiences? How can they serve the Lord's goals for our lives now and on to eternity? | By Rev. Eric H. Carswell | Bryn Athyn Cathedral

Keeping to a Spiritual Timeline

Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - January 03, 2021

Transitions are a useful reminder to reflect on where we have been and where we are going. We see this most prominently with the New Year: it is a time of appreciating all that has happened in the previous year and looking forward to what the next year has to bring. Or in the case of 2020, trying to forget most of the previous year and hoping things improve in the new. But deep down, we all know that the changing of the calender does not actually change anything. Covid is still with is, the problems of yesterday are mostly the problems we still face today. Although these natural-world cycles are useful reminders, the reality is that spiritually, any moment can be a new day, a new year, a new opportunity for change. Instead of being chained to the steady march of time, we can make our own beginning at any point, when we look to the Lord and His spiritual goals for us. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSA

And Balaam said to Balak, "Look, I have come to you! Now, have I any power at all to say anything? The word that God puts in my mouth, that I must speak." (Numbers 22:38) | By Rev. Jeremy F. Simons | Bryn Athyn Cathedral

"Teach Us to Number Our Days..."

Worship Service: Informal Family - January 05, 2020

It's a new decade (or not, depending on how you think about it) and it's a time when a lot of people are thinking about time and all that's happened in the past decade or two. People are also looking to the future and wondering what will happen in the 2020's. With these thoughts on our minds it seemed like it be useful, this Sunday evening, to reflect on Psalm 90 where it says, "teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom." | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSA

Grief and Gratitude

Worship Service: Informal Family - December 29, 2019

A different baby was born in Bethlehem, hundreds of years before Jesus was born there. The mother of that baby died in childbirth and soo named her son "son of my sorrow" before she died. Later the father renamed that baby, "son of the right hand" or "son of strength". This story offers an opportunity to reflect on our sorrows and the strength that the Lord has given us through our sorrows and also gives us another way of understanding why the Lord was born in Bethlehem. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSA

Getting Rid of Your Wild Animals

Worship Service: Sermon only - December 31, 2017

Suppose someone keeps a leopard and a panther in an apartment and as the one who feeds them, is able to live safely with them. No one else can visit unless their owner first removes these wild animals. (True Christian Religion 331:7) | By Rev. Eric H. Carswell | Bryn Athyn Cathedral

Four Reasons New Year's Resolutions Fail

Worship Service: Childrens Talk only - January 03, 2016

Four Reasons we fail to live out our New Year's Resolutions and other life changes are: making resolutions we don't want to keep, not being willing to suffer self compulsion, not bringing the Lord into the process, failing to fail successfully. If we want to stick to a life change we have to work through these challenges: know that part of us doesn't want to change and that we are going to have to do it anyway, ask the Lord for help, and don't let failure discourage us. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PA
