Blessed Are Your Eyes
Worship Service: Family (may include music) - January 23, 2022
The Lord told His disciples they were blessed to be able to see what they were seeing because not everyone who came before had had that opportunity (Matthew 13:16). The Lord offers to open our eyes to new things becuase we don't always see what we need to see. | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick | Bryn Athyn Cathedral

Look with New Eyes
Worship Service: Sermon only - January 23, 2022
We talk about selective hearing, meaning there are times when we hear what we want to hear, instead of hearing what we need to hear. The same can be said for seeing - there are times when we see what we want to see, instead of seeing what we need to see. Thankfully we have an objective source of truth, the Lord's Word, which helps us look at the world around us with "new eyes." | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick | Bryn Athyn Cathedral

Daily Repentance
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - January 23, 2022
The last couple of sermons have dealt with how we address our own evils. In essence this is repentance: admit you did something wrong, stop doing it, and live a better life. Repentance happens on a grand scale when we have done something egregious or when we are battling a lifelong tendency. But repentance can also be something that we are working on in little ways every single day. That might sound daunting: repent every day?! But when we understand what it means we can embrace it as both a possibility and a blessing. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSA

We Can't Be Perfect
Worship Service: Family (may include music) - January 16, 2022

Living with Imperfection
Worship Service: Sermon only - January 16, 2022
Setting goals, striving to be the best, holding ourselves to the highest of standards; these are all necessary goals, the "fuel" that keeps us going, and yet perfection can't ever be achieved, not in this world or the next. How do we learn to be at peace with this seeming paradox? | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick | Bryn Athyn Cathedral

OK and Not OK
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - January 16, 2022
Last week Joel preached about admitting you were wrong and it got me thinking about how important the time after we’ve done something is. How we think about what we’ve done—whether it was good or bad—really matters. When we’ve done something wrong, do we acknowledge it or try to justify it? When we’ve done something good, what do we think about the action or ourselves afterward? Each day we’re going to do a whole bunch of different things and likely some of those things will be somewhat good and some will be somewhat selfish. We need the Lord’s help to sort out what in all of that is OK and what is not OK. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSA

Admitting You Were Wrong
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - January 09, 2022
How do you respond when the Word tells you something that you don’t like? What if a way you see the world doesn’t fit with how the Word describes the world? How do you respond when you find out that something you’ve been doing for years and thought was fine is condemned in the Word? It’s a difficult question to answer. So today we are going to wrestle with how to listen to the Word and deal with the fear, sadness and embarrassment of admitting that you were wrong. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSA

Strength and Surrender
Worship Service: Informal Family - January 02, 2022
Spiritual life requires both “strength and surrender.” At the shore of the Red Sea, Moses told Israel to “Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord” and at the same time to “Move forward” (Exodus 14). Peter was able to walk on water, but then he wasn’t (Matthew 14:22-34). Why do we so often fail in self-control and resolutions? | By Rev. John L. Odhner | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall
