Sent Out and Sent Out Again
Worship Service: Family (may include music) - June 21, 2020
As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of New Church Day, our focus is on the sending out of the 12 disciples on June 19, 1770. We have the opportunity to remember together the Christmas Tableaux and the June 19th Pageant, and to ask ourselves what it means to be a disciple of the Lord. | By Rt. Rev. Peter M. Buss, Jr. | Bryn Athyn CathedralSent Out and Sent Out Again
Worship Service: Sermon only - June 21, 2020
The Child born to the woman clothed with the sun, described in Revelation 12, represents "the doctrine of the New Church" (see Apocalypse Revealed 543). Our opportunity is to focus on the revelation of the Heavenly Doctrines as the fulfillment of that prophecy. Beyond appreciation is the act of being sent out. The real impact of that revelation is people like us choosing to live an authentic New Church life as described in its pages. | By Rt. Rev. Peter M. Buss, Jr. | Bryn Athyn CathedralNew Church Day, 2020
Worship Service: Sermon only - June 21, 2020
This message looks at the birth 250 years ago of the era of the New Church. It considers the role of the New Church, not only on ending slavery, but on every aspect of human life. The end effect is a heaven from the human race in the Lord's heavenly kingdom, His Holy City New Jerusalem. | By Rev. Garry B. Walsh | Sarver, PALiving in a Post-Apocalyptic World, Part 3: The Future of the New Church
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - June 21, 2020
What's going to happen in the future of the New Church? What are things going to look like in the next 50 years or the next 1000 years? Will there be a need for another new church? This Sunday, as we celebrate the founding of the New Church 250 years ago, we will try to get a picture of the future of the New Church and an understand of what our role is right now. | By Rev.

6 PM online service | By Rev. Erik J. Buss | Bryn Athyn CathedralLiving in a Post-Apocalyptic World - Part 2 - New Foundations
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - June 14, 2020
The New Church teaches that the Apocalypse has already taken place: in fact, it took place over 250 years ago, as the New Church was being born into the world. Understanding the spiritual events from that time period can help us better understand the world we live in today. Last week, Malcolm talked about how the mere existence of the New Church did not automatically make people better: even New Church people have, and still can, support abhorrent practices. This week we will talk about the difference the New Church does make, and why it matters that a New Church was established and continues to exist. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSAHealing Christianity I - Christianity is Damaged

We are often attracted by the allure of sensual reasoning. How do we fight this “dragon” in our lives? What is the dragon chasing in our lives? | By Rev. Jeremy F. Simons | Bryn Athyn Heilman HallThe Tree of Life
Worship Service: Informal Family - June 16, 2019
The Tree of Life appears at the beginning and the end of the Word (see Genesis 2; Revelation 22). It’s a symbol for the Lord’s love. Why is a tree a good symbol for the Lord’s love? How can this symbolism help us to better understand how to bring the Lord’s love into our lives? | By Rev. Solomon J. Keal | Bryn Athyn Heilman HallCommemoration of New Church Day

Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - August 19, 2018
As the church struggles in a "post-Christian" culture, or in some cases an "old Christian" culture, I thought it would be appropriate to address what the Writings have to say about this. - MDG | By Rev. Michael D. Gladish | Mitchellville, MDThe Woman Clothed with the Sun

Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - June 17, 2018
At the Book of Revelation ends with a promise, a warning, an invitation, and an assurance.

Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PAThe Woman, the Dragon, and the Wings in Revelation 12
Worship Service: Informal Family - June 10, 2018
“Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun...And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads….But the woman was given two wings of a great eagle” (Revelation 12:1-14) We explore the meaning of the “dragon” and the “woman clothed with the sun” inside all of us.

The walls of the Holy City New Jerusalem are a picture of the Lord's love and protection. Once a person is within those walls, they are safe from every attack of the hells.
