Boundaries

Worship Service: Informal Family - August 23, 2020

When we spend a lot of time together working and living, it is easy to have friction and conflict. Establishing good boundaries gives people on both sides freedom. “I will not pass beyond this heap to you, and you will not pass beyond this heap and this pillar to me, for harm.” (Genesis 31:43-55, Married Love 56.2) | By Rev. John L. Odhner | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall

The Tower of Babel

Worship Service: Informal Family - August 16, 2020

In Genesis 11, all the people on earth went from speaking one language to speaking many different languages. What does this parable symbolize in our spiritual lives?

Solomon J. Keal | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall

The Horses among the Myrtle Trees

Worship Service: Informal Family - August 09, 2020

The horses and their riders were waiting among the myrtle trees in the hollow, having returned from a tour of the land. They reported that the land was resting quietly, but this is not what Zechariah wanted to hear. | By Rev. Jeremy F. Simons | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall

Patriotic Repentance

Worship Service: Informal Family - July 26, 2020

Loving our country sometimes means that we need to examine ourselves as citizens, and as a country, and try to do better. In 1 Samuel 24, Saul was king of Israel, but David was meant to be the new king, and Saul was trying to kill him. David’s actions toward Saul offer us an image of what it means to be a good citizen of our country. | By Rev. Solomon J. Keal | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall

Communicating Through Disagreement

Worship Service: Informal Family - July 12, 2020

How are we supposed to communicate with people with whom we completely disagree, or with people who hate us or our loved ones? Is it best to allow them to talk, or to tell them they are wrong, or do we just unfriend them? Here, we look at some modern examples and how those line up with what the Lord tells us in His Word. | By Rev. Jeffrey Smith | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall

Death and Rebirth

Who Do People Say That I Am?

Worship Service: Informal Family - May 17, 2020

When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, ‘Whom do people say that I the Son of man am?’” (Matt 16:13) The Gospel makes a point of telling us where Jesus was when He made these comments. Why would this be important to Him, to the disciples and to us?" | By Rev. Dr Andrew M. Dibb | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall

Spiritual Sunlight

Worship Service: Informal Family - May 10, 2020

What do you notice?

Worship Service: Informal Family - May 03, 2020

When we are in a good state, we notice certain things, and when in a bad state we notice others. Happiness comes from being able to notice what is good and useful even when things are not great -- not in a Pollyanna-ish way but seeing what is really there. | By Rev. Erik J. Buss | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall

Rising from the Tomb

Worship Service: Informal Family - April 12, 2020

For the disciples, the Easter story took place during a time of fear and sadness. Many of them had lost hope. But Easter morning represents renewed hope, and the truth that the Lord doesn’t let anything happen that He can’t bring goodness out of. | By Rev. Solomon J. Keal | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall

The Lord as Our King

Worship Service: Informal Family - April 05, 2020

On Palm Sunday we celebrate the Lord’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem as a King. In times of crisis it’s comforting to know that Someone is in charge. But how exactly is the Lord a King in times like this? And how do we turn to Him as our King? | By Rev. Solomon J. Keal | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall

What To Do In Captivity

Worship Service: Informal Family - March 29, 2020

At the end of 2nd Kings, the children of Israel and Judah were taken into captivity, away from the Promised Land. Jeremiah the prophet wrote a letter to them, comforting them, telling them the Lord would bring them back eventually, and giving them hope and advice about what to do during their captivity (see Jeremiah 29-31). This advice can be relevant for us during our current “captivity” as well.

Remembering and Not Forgetting

Worship Service: Informal Family - March 22, 2020

How are they the same? What should we be remembering? The video version of this service is available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HqkrXDj7wCM | By Rev.

Baptism of Elizabeth Savino - Crossing the Jordan

Worship Service: Informal Family - March 08, 2020

Today's service includes the baptism of one of our newcomers: Elizabeth Savino. The talk will focus on the story of the children of Israel entering the Promised Land by crossing the Jordan river (Joshua 3-4). The Jordan river was where John the Baptist baptized people, and it was also the way by which people would enter the Holy Land. We will talk about how this story and the sacrament of baptism both symbolize being led by the Lord into a new state of life. | By Rev. Solomon J. Keal | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall

Feast of Charity

Worship Service: Informal Family - March 01, 2020

The Lord modeled the Holy Supper as a time for us to share both food and drink, as well as goodness and truth with each other.

The Praise of the Lord

Worship Service: Informal Family - February 23, 2020

In the fourth and final week of our series “Growing through Challenges” we see Gideon's 300 men (with horns and torches) routing 135,000 Amalekites. Their battle cry is “The Sword of the Lord and of Gideon,” which contains two vital truths: first, that all power is from the Lord (as we learned last week)—thus the Sword is the Lord's. The second truth is that the Lord works in us and through us with our cooperation. So the Sword was also Gideon's. | By Rev. John L. Odhner | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall

The Power of the Lord

Worship Service: Informal Family - February 16, 2020

Gideon's army of 32,000 faced an enemy army of 135,000. But the Lord tells Gideon that his army is too big, and that he needs to let many of his soldiers go! (Judges 7:1-8). When we are facing challenges that feel too big for us, what do we need to let go of? How does the Lord’s power work in our lives? | By Rev. Solomon J. Keal | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall
