Children and Parents
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - May 26, 2019
If you have children, you probably spend a fair amount of time talking about parenting—how things are going for this child or that child, what you’re fighting with your children about (what they’re eating or not eating, screen time, homework, etc.), your worries about their future. But what is the goal? What is the role of a parent meant to be? And what about these children that we’re trying to parent—are they perfect, uncorrupted little angels, are they disrespectful brats that need to be brought into line? There are many opinions about all of these things in the world but what I want to talk about on Sunday is what the Lord says about all of this in His Word. What does He teach us about the nature of children and how does He define the role of a parent? Gaining clarity about this can really help us hold the hard work of parenting in a better way. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSA

Other People's Children
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - May 19, 2019
This Sunday we continue our series on children. When we think of children our minds immediately go to parents as well. But children are not just the concern of parents. Whether we like it or not, all of us have some responsibility for other people's children. As individuals, as a community, and as a church, how do we carry out this responsibility that we have not asked for and at times outright resent? All of us have a role to play in the lives of the young people who surround us. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSA

Let the little children come to Me...
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - May 12, 2019
This Sunday we’re beginning a sermon series on children with the story in which Jesus says, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them….” The context of this statement is that people were trying to bring their children to the Lord but the disciples were telling them to go away. We might think, why would the disciples try to send the children away from the Lord? But there are actually plenty of times when we might be inclined to do the same exact thing. Let’s take a look. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSA

The Hidden Power of the Word
Worship Service: Informal Family - May 05, 2019
The Word isn’t just a confusing blend of worldly stories, laws and ‘begats’ that reflect an ancient people and their past. The Word is an external framework that supports inner, spiritual truths that explain who God is and His inner workings with the universe. Its truths offer great power for protection and healing. We can use this power to see how the Lord constantly works behind the scenes to support us and our spiritual health. | By Rt. Rev. David H. Lindrooth | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall

Changing Our Spiritual Landscape
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - May 05, 2019
You can tell a lot about someone by the things and people they surround themselves with. On the one hand, this is because where we choose to put time and effort is a reflection of what we value. On the other hand, it is also because we are shaped by our environments: we become like what we are surrounded by. This statement is true spiritually. If we surround ourselves with heavenly influences, we will become heavenly. If we surround ourselves with hellish influences, we will become hellish. Where and how we spend our time is not just a matter of personal preference. It is a matter of choosing who we will become. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSA
