The Lilies of the Field
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - January 22, 2023
We live in a world filled with signs of Divine love and wisdom, and the Divine Providence which is governing our lives every moment – protecting, nurturing, and leading us. The world of nature presents an image of our spiritual lives, and can instruct us in how to grow spiritually. Yet these insights do not come just from studying nature, nor even from just studying spiritual things, but from living what the Word teaches, so that we can see from our hearts the messages from the Lord in the world around us. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSA

Our Relationship with God
Worship Service: Family (may include music) - January 15, 2023
Jesus said, "No one comes to the Father but by Me." So, we understand that there is only one way we can really think about and love God, and that is in the human form, as the Lord, Jesus Christ. Even so, we do not see God in the Lord's natural body, we see Him in His love, His wisdom, and His power. Let's think about this today and see how the infinite God reveals Himself in the life and teachings of the Man, Jesus. | By Rev. Michael D. Gladish | Bryn Athyn Cathedral

How to Comprehend the Infinite
Worship Service: Sermon only - January 15, 2023
God is so awesome and so powerful; it is hard to imagine how He can create and control everything in the universe. In fact, it is hard to imagine Him at all. This is why He has always presented Himself in the human form, especially in His life and teaching as our Lord in this world. But is the Infinite God really Human? Is He really a Man? Nothing in our spiritual lives is more important than this. | By Rev. Michael D. Gladish | Bryn Athyn Cathedral

Children's Talk - Disagreement and Harmony
Worship Service: Childrens Talk only - January 15, 2023
What does it take to love someone you disagree with? At what point does a disagreement escalate to an argument, and in turn ruin a relationship? Is it even possible to fully love everyone you disagree with? There are lots of disagreements around us all the time, many of which do escalate. In spite of our best efforts we will have times when disagreements and arguments break the harmony of our relationships. Disagreement cannot, and should not, be avoided. But it does not have to be a messy affair that ends friendships. If we learn to disagree under the guidance of the Lord’s Word we will find greater harmony in the end. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSA

When We Don’t Understand the Word
Worship Service: Informal Family - January 15, 2023
Maybe you started reading the Lord’s Word again in this new year or maybe you’ve been in the habit for years. It’s great when you feel like you’re understanding the Word and getting something out of it, but what do you do when you don’t understand the Word? Let’s talk this Sunday about how much we should expect to understand the Lord’s Word and how we can still benefit from reading the Word, even when we don’t feel like we’re understanding very much. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall

Taste and See That the Lord is Good
Worship Service: Family (may include music) - January 08, 2023
"How sweet are Your words to my taste" (Psalm 119:103) Before we swallow food, we go through two lines of defense: we smell it and then taste it to see if it’s good, if it’s worth eating. On a physical level, our nose and tongue rarely let us down but what about our spiritual sense of smell and taste? How do we distinguish between attitudes and habits that are “stinky” versus “sweet?” Can we figure this out on our own or do we need help? | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick | Bryn Athyn Cathedral

Taste and See That the Lord is Good
Worship Service: Sermon only - January 08, 2023
“Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good” (Psalm 34:8) Spiritually speaking, taste has to do with perception, with the ability to discern whether something is pleasant (good) or unpleasant (evil). We might think we can cultivate our own spiritual palate, but this gets tricky when our old and new “self” present contradictory ideas of what is “good” and “sweet.” Thankfully, the Lord can help. | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick | Bryn Athyn Cathedral

He Came to Fulfill
Worship Service: Family (may include music) - January 01, 2023
Having completed another circle around the Sun, we have the opportunity to look back on the previous year and also to look forward to the new one we are entering now. In the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5), the Lord invites us into a new way of understanding and loving with these words, “It has been said… but I say to you.” These words embody the spirit of the new year, in which we leave behind who we were and become more and more the image and likeness of our Creator. | By Rev. Jeffrey Smith | Bryn Athyn Cathedral

Fullness of State
Worship Service: Sermon only - January 01, 2023
Each new year that comes around completes a cycle of time. The passing of time can highlight a feeling that life is repetitious and that we haven’t gained any spiritual ground since the last cycle of time that came and went. However, the Lord is preparing us, slowly filling the empty places in our spirits until they are full. A completed cycle is symbolic of what our Teachings call a “fullness of state” – that moment in which we have been aptly prepared for our continued spiritual journeys, and that moment when, in humility, we are ready to let the Lord in. | By Rev. Jeffrey Smith | Bryn Athyn Cathedral
