And Balaam said to Balak, "Look, I have come to you! Now, have I any power at all to say anything? The word that God puts in my mouth, that I must speak." (Numbers 22:38) | By Rev. Jeremy F. Simons | Bryn Athyn CathedralThe Magnificat
Worship Service: Informal Family - December 08, 2019
This Sunday we continue our series about the Christmas story, focused on “Our Part” in bringing the Lord into our world. Our story this week is about Mary's visit to Elizabeth and her prophecy in the Magnificat. “He has put down the mighty from their thrones and exalted the lowly.” This prophecy is about a revolution that needs to take place inside of us, a reorientation of our priorities, that we see described not only in the Gospel account, but in almost all of our Christmas stories and songs. | By Rev.

The Lord’s parable of the “Unjust Steward” in Luke 16, about the firing of a manager for mismanagement and corruption, has a message for all of us about how we manage our own spiritual lives. We have a tendency to claim for our own what the Lord has given us. | By Rev. Jeremy F. Simons | Bryn Athyn Heilman HallRefrain Your Voice from Weeping, Rachel
