Responding Affirmatively
Are you receptive and open to new ideas? Do you strive to be affirmative when listening to others? The Writings for the New Church talk about the "affirmative principle" (Arcana Coelestia 2568). Most of the passages on this subject talk about our approach to the Word of the Lord, asking us to be affirmative to what we read there. But a more careful consideration of this attitude shows that it applies to all facets of life. CD Description: 1-44:52 2-35:00 | By Rt. Rev. Peter M. Buss, Jr. | Bryn Athyn, Mitchell Performing Arts Center

"Mythos" and "Logos" in the New Church
Mythos and Logos can be viewed as two essential and complementary ways of arriving at religious truth.

This workshop attempts to define Mythos and Logos and then explore how they have been used (and possibly misused) in the life of religion.

Resolving Contradictions in Our Understanding of God
Christianity contains many paradoxes, dilemas, or apparent contradictions. Does the Lord determine everything or am I free to choose something? Which are better, traditional services or contemporary services? The New Church is the crown of all churches and enables us to understand the synergistic outcomes of these apparent contradictions. We'll be working together using a visual presentation called a Polarity Map that allows the situation clearly, discussed and resolved.

The Trajectory of Church History and Future of the New Church
The Heavenly Doctrines and psychology in general tell us to learn from the past, to plan for the future, and to live in the present. With this in mind we can learn from the previous special churches (Most Ancient Church, Ancient Church, Israelitish Church, and Christian Church) and look to the future that the Lord has for the New Church, as all of this is revealed in the Heavenly Doctrines. What can the Church do now that will help implement the Lord's plans for His Kingdom on earth? | By Rev. Prescott A. Rogers | Bryn Athyn, Mitchell Performing Arts Center
