Worship Service: Sermon only - July 23, 2017
Part 2 of our study of the book 'Heaven and Hell' considers the nature of heavenly communities and the homes of the people who live in there. The primary message is that it is the nature of the love and usefulness of any angel that determines where their heavenly home and community is, and what these will look like. | By Rev. Garry B. Walsh | Phoenix, AZProcess of New Life
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - July 23, 2017
The Lord calls us into a spiritual process of becoming mature. This process is compared to the from of birth, from conception to adult maturity. This process is called being born again because we leave behind an old life and take on a new one. This process is described by the days of creation, but we cannot know in detail where we are while in this world. The whole process is something the Lord does, when we learn and live His truth. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PAThe Middling Goodness of Laban
Worship Service: Informal Family - July 23, 2017
In the middle of the story of Jacob, he spends a significant amount of time in Haran with his uncle Laban. Was it a good thing or a bad thing that Jacob lived with Laban for so long? “Laban” symbolizes “mediate good” or “middling goodness” in the middle of our own spiritual journeys. He represents our mixed motivations; the times when we do good things for selfish reasons. Is that a good thing or a bad thing for us? | By Rev. Solomon J. Keal | Bryn Athyn Heilman HallWhy Heaven and Hell are Relevant Today - Part 2 Hell
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - July 23, 2017
Hell is something a lot of people would rather not think about and not talk about. And it makes sense: who would want to contemplate the idea that they or people they love might end up in a place of suffering for eternity? That's terrifying. But ignoring hell or pretending like it doesn't exist also doesn't work. Just like we talked about last week with heaven, hell is a reality that we can experience on a daily basis and so we need to look at it squarely and try to understand how best to deal with it. That's what we're going to try to do on Sunday. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSAThe Bravest Thing David Did

This week begins an extended series of talks following the book "Heaven and Hell'. The most important truth of all, is that there is one God, the Lord Jesus Christ, and He is Ruler of heaven and earth. | By Rev. Garry B. Walsh | Phoenix, AZThe Call of Samuel - Hearing God's Voice
Worship Service: Informal Family - July 16, 2017
In 1st Samuel chapter 3 the Lord called to Samuel, but neither Samuel nor Eli knew that it was the Lord calling at first. The Lord kept calling, and the 3rd time Eli understood, and the 4th time Samuel answered. What does this represent in our lives? How do we hear the Lord's voice in our hearts and minds? | By Rev. Solomon J. Keal | Bryn Athyn Heilman HallWater Became Wine
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - July 16, 2017
The Lord's first miracle of turning water into wine at a marriage celebration in Cana provides a picture of why the Lord came. He came to celebrate a marriage of good and truth in us, a marriage of the Lord and the church, and the demonstrate the blessings that flow from that marriage. | By Rev.

Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - July 16, 2017
Heaven and hell can seem like fuzzy, distant, old-fashioned ideas - something from a different era, like fairytales with heroes and monsters. A lot of people today aren't sure that heaven and hell even exist and those that do think they exist often think of them as something that will only be relevant later in life, when they're getting ready to die. The New Church perspective is that heaven and hell are realities that we deal with every day and that what we believe about them can have a profound impact on our lives. Come and hear the New Church perspective on heaven this Sunday. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSAHealing a Woman's Daughter

| By Rev. Brian D. Smith | Mitchellville, MDPushing Over the Pillars of Self-Love
Worship Service: Sermon only - July 09, 2017
This message shows that the two pillars of the temple of the Philistines that Samson pushed over at the end of his life, represent problematic things that a person's life might be based on that cannot stand up to the Lord and His teachings. Our life, instead, should be supported by the pillars of His message, which teaches us that we need faith and charity together in our hearts, minds and actions. | By Rev. Garry B. Walsh | Phoenix, AZInviting the Poor, the Maimed, the Lame and Blind to Dinner
Worship Service: Informal Family - July 09, 2017
"When you give a dinner or a supper, do not ask your friends, your brothers, your relatives, nor rich neighbors, lest they also invite you back, and you be repaid." (Luke 14:12). Taken literally, these words seem to say that much of our social life is not appropriate. New Church theology gives these words a different meaning. The emphasis is not that meals with family & friends are wrong, but rather that the good things that we do should not have our own reward as their goal. | By Rev. Eric H. Carswell | Bryn Athyn Heilman HallHow We Can Be Like Silver
