A Shining Face

Unintentional Mistakes

Worship Service: Informal Family - October 06, 2024

Doing No Harm

Bread from Heaven

Worship Service: Informal Family - September 22, 2024

Every day for over 40 years, the Children of Israel were fed with miraculous manna. But Jesus said that He Himself was the true bread from heaven, more miraculous than manna. How do we receive the bread of life from the Lord? | By Rev. Coleman S. Glenn | Bryn Athyn Cathedral Undercroft

A New Name

Worship Service: Informal Family - September 08, 2024

Partially inspired by the baptism which will be happening today, we will be talking about being given a new name by the Lord.

The Lord Always Blesses Us

Worship Service: Informal Family - September 01, 2024

When we learn the Lord invites us to do good work which will bring a blessing, like the laborers in the vineyard (Matthew 20:1-16), we learn gratitude is a gift from the Lord. "In a spiritual religion the main focus is charity, in which the Lord is present, by means of which he binds himself to humanity, and through which he alone accomplishes everything good."

Encouragement

Worship Service: Informal Family - August 25, 2024

You Are Holy

Worship Service: Informal Family - August 18, 2024

It's a simple statement, and might seem strange for some, but obvious for others. Throughout the Word, we see the Lord connecting with people about holiness, telling them they are on holy ground, or in the presence of holiness, or will receive the Holy Spirit. So what is holiness, and how are you holy? | By Rev. Pearse M. Frazier | Bryn Athyn Cathedral Undercroft

Bitter Realizations, Sweet Resolutions

Worship Service: Informal Family - July 21, 2024

Our lives can build up quite quickly with “shoulds” – “I should be more patient with ______.” “I should apologize for ______.” “I should reach out to _____.” These “shoulds” stack up whenever we give our old self, our ego, free reign. We have our reasons – we’ve had a long day, we tried before, we’re super busy, etc. – but what we often don’t realize is that the truth we know we should act on will remain bitter and unpleasant until we follow the Lord’s advice and, like Moses, throw “wood” into the situation. | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick | Bryn Athyn Cathedral Undercroft

Peace! Be Still!

Worship Service: Informal Family - July 14, 2024

A Higher Law

Worship Service: Informal Family - July 07, 2024

The law said that someone who prayed to anyone other than the king would be thrown into the lions’ den. But Daniel followed a higher law. America was founded in part on a belief that the laws of justice transcend temporary edicts of a king. How do we love our country while looking first to the Lord’s higher law? | By Rev. Coleman S. Glenn | Bryn Athyn Cathedral Undercroft

The Cherubim around the Throne

True Humility

Worship Service: Informal Family - February 04, 2024

Jesus told a parable about two people who were praying (Luke 18). One gave thanks that he was better than other people; the other would not even raise his eyes to heaven, but simply asked for mercy.
