Heavenly Imbalance
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - July 14, 2019
“Everything in moderation” seems like a sound rule for life. After all, anything, even something good, can become harmful when taken to an extreme. Yet this common-sense truth finds surprisingly little support in the Lord’s Word. As just one example, Jesus says, “no one can serve two masters” (Matthew 6:24). There is no moderation or balancer here: rather pick a side and wholeheartedly follow it! This Sunday we will look at how a blind devotion to moderation can be harmful and why thinking in terms of prioritisation is a more heavenly outlook. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSA

The Challenge of Choosing Wisely
Worship Service: Informal Family - July 07, 2019
In the story of the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve had a choice of fruits from two trees. We explore how, instead of telling about "original sin," this is representative of each person's free will, and the choices we each make in our spiritual life. | By Rt. Rev. Peter M.

We Need Times of Rest
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - July 07, 2019
This Sunday we will be looking at the spiritual significance of the year of Jubilee. This was a law that the Children of Israel had that, every fifty years, they had to let the ground lie fallow and not plant seeds or harvest. Also, any land that had been sold during those fifty years had to then revert to the original owner. What is the spiritual significance of all of this for our lives and our need for fallow times? | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSA

The Purpose of the Church
Worship Service: Sermon only - July 07, 2019
The church is meant to be the heart and lungs for all good people in the world. The heart and lungs do not exist for themselves, but for the sake of the whole body, and for the sake of that body’s activities. Commit to helping the two functions of our church work together, not for our sake, but for the sake of the whole human race. - GMF | By Rev. Glenn (Mac) Frazier | Mitchellville, MD

Becoming One - What It Means and What It Does Not
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - June 23, 2019
In wedding ceremonies and love songs people talk about two people becoming one when they get married. That sounds beautiful and poetic but is it actually possible? To people who are in love it can feel very possible; to people in the midst of a difficult conflict or who have just drifted apart it can feel entirely impossible and naive. And what does "becoming one" even mean? Does it mean always agreeing with your partner? Does it mean you have to lose yourself in your relationship for it to work? These are the questions we're going to be digging into this Sunday. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSA
