Why 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, RSA

Why Heaven and Hell are Relevant Today - Part 1 Heaven
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, RSA

Pushing 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, AZ

Inviting 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.

The Symbolism of Samson - or: The Lord has all the answers
Worship Service: Sermon only - July 02, 2017
The biblical story of Samson is a metaphor describing the Lord's incredible strength. That strength can give us the answer to any question in life, so long as we are actively looking for those answers in the stories of His Word. The answer might not be obvious in the literal text, but it can flow from the Lord Himself, through that text. | By Rev. Garry B. Walsh | Phoenix, AZ

Fear - Both Hellish and Heavenly
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - July 02, 2017
We tend to become paralyzed when we feel fear. It holds us back from taking risks. But the Lord says do not be afraid. Even when the storms of life rage around us we have nothing to fear. In contrast is Holy Fear: this is the fear that we might let harm come to things that are good. When we feel this fear it does not paralyze us. Instead it inspires and empowers us to protect the good things in our lives. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSA
