Seeing Providence - Providence Throughout Our Lives
Worship Service: Family (may include music) - October 30, 2022
Week 1 in the “Seeing Providence” series. Seeing Providence- is it even possible? New Church teachings suggest we can only see it when we look back on our life, and that we don’t typically “see” or “feel” the Lord’s leading in the present moment. So how does Providence work? This introduction to our new Journey Program, sponsored by Bryn Athyn Church, will explore some of the remarkable, uplifting teachings on Providence, which paint a new and refreshing image of our infinite and loving God. | By Rev.

Seeing Providence Throughout Our Lives
Worship Service: Informal Family - October 30, 2022
We begin our four-week Journey series on “Seeing Providence” by looking at the stories leading up to the birth of Moses. Sometimes it is easy to see Providence working in our lives. Other times it can be very hard. What are some ways we can remember that the Lord is always working to bring goodness out of any situation in our lives? | By Rev. Solomon J. Keal | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall

Tempted in the Wilderness - 1 - Hungering for Pleasure
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - October 30, 2022
This Sunday we will begin a three-part series on spiritual battles, or temptation. The template for entering these spiritual struggles can be found in the Lord’s temptations: before He began His ministry the Lord was tempted by the devil in the wilderness for forty days. The three main temptations that He faced and in which He was victorious encapsulate all of the temptations that we also grapple with: the craving for pleasure, the compulsion to twist the truth, and the drive to elevate ourselves above all others. 2. Twisting the Truth – 6 November 3. Putting Self First – 13 November | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSA

Sell What You Have
Worship Service: Family (may include music) - October 16, 2022
“Sell What You Have” (Mark 10:21) It started off simple: what do I need to do to get to heaven? You need to keep the commandments, the Lord said. I’ve kept them from my youth, was the reply of the young man. Then sell whatever you have and come follow Me. This the man couldn’t do, and went away sorrowful. What do we need to “sell” in order to follow the Lord and why might this be hard? | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick | Bryn Athyn Cathedral

Letting Go
Worship Service: Sermon only - October 16, 2022
We can be doing all the right things - “turning up” for work, family, and friends; putting in a good day’s work; reading the Word; volunteering at church or in the community - but still lack “one thing” (Mark 10:21). This “one thing” is different for everyone, but the “letting go” part is the same - it’s hard, very hard to do, but not impossible. Once we see what’s holding us back we become mentally prepared to “sell,” take up our cross, and follow the Lord. | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick | Bryn Athyn Cathedral

Order Within the Chaos
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - October 16, 2022
Life is often messy. Many people struggle to stay on top of all their obligations, much less all the other bits and pieces of life. With this experience it can start to appear that there is no real order or purpose to life, no strand tying it all together. Yet even in the chaos the Lord’s order is present. In His eyes, every piece is accounted for, every event foreseen, and every possibility planned for. Even within the chaos, there is order; the Lord’s Divine Order. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSA

Loving Others: A User’s Manual
Worship Service: Informal Family - October 16, 2022
The Lord's Word is full of the repeated statement to love the neighbor, but each person gives and receives love in a different way. How do we know if we are loving others in the way most useful to them? What are the practical tools that the Lord gives us explaining the "how" to loving others? | By Rev. Richard M. Glenn | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall

Separating the Wheat from the Tares

Old Age
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - October 09, 2022
Old age can be a time of great reflection: looking back on what has been, looking forward with wonder to what is to come after death. It can also be a time of trial and tribulation: as the body and mind fail, doubt and despair can creep in. Moses, at the end of his life, was able to reflect on the past and from that gracefully hand over his wisdom to the next generation. As we look at this concluding stage of life in this world, we will look at how we too can gracefully age and handover to the next generation. Thank you to Lance Mansfield for once again stepping up to be our Lay Preacher. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSA
