Love Over Ego, Part 3 - Confidence Over Arrogance
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - February 17, 2019
Nebuchadnezzar demanded that the Jews in exile, participate in the court worship of idols on the threat of death. The three Jews in question refused because they were not going to commit idolatry. Idolatry in our age is ways of thinking and living, it is the things that we make most important in our life. Can we have the courage to think and live as the Lord invites us to even at pain of persecution and rejection by others? | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PAHOPE

The path to wisdom lasts a lifetime, and even then is never truly finished. Even the wisest man alive is pitifully ignorant compared to the vast wisdom of the Lord. Yet still we strive to grow in wisdom and intelligence, as we ought to do. We turn to experts, to podcasts and books, to life experiences and rationally thought-out plans. We expect that if we only had the right information we would be able to master life. Paradoxically though, wisdom does not ultimately come from grasping at worldly knowledge: it comes when we humbly look to the Lord and acknowledge our own shortcomings. That is the wisdom that will let us master life. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSAThe Presence that Preserves Us

It is often said that the Lord will never give us more than we can handle. And yet, sometimes we still feel totally overwhelmed, just like Peter, who tried to walk on water, but found himself sinking. - JB | By Rev. Jared J. Buss | Mitchellville, MDLove Over Ego - Taking a Stand
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - February 10, 2019
This Sunday we begin our series on the Daniel story, Love Over Ego. When the story begins, Daniel is taken far away from his home to live in captivity in Babylon. But Daniel is given an opportunity to get special treatment and to move up the ladder. When we find ourselves in similar difficult circumstances it’s very easy to justify doing whatever we need to do in order to get ahead. But Daniel, instead, does not just go with the flow and take what’s given to him; he takes a stand for what the Lord teaches. Come on Sunday to hear what happens to him and to reflect on how we also can take a stand for what the Lord teaches. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSAWorkers In The LORD'S Vineyard

Daniel sought to maintain his Jewish identity within a foreign culture, but also to succeed within that culture. Daniel stove to not defile himself according to Jewish law, and chose to pursue this by regulating his consumption. Paying attention to what we take in and where it comes from is the starting place for choosing an identity in the Lord. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PAChoosing to Trust in the Lord

Then Jonathan said to the young man who bore his armor, "Come, let us go over to the garrison of these uncircumcised; it may be that the Lord will work for us.

"Then Abraham lifted his eyes and looked, and there behind him was a ram caught in a thicket by its horns. So Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up for a burnt offering instead of his son." (Genesis 22:13) | By Rev. Eric H. Carswell | Bryn Athyn CathedralGod's Goals For Your Happiness
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - February 03, 2019
God definitely wants us to be happy, but it doesn't always feel like it. More often than not there seems to be a tension between what we want to do and what God asks us to do. The Lord understands that we go through this and so He draws our attention to the happiness that lies within keeping His commandments: "Happy are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven," as just one example. Nor is this promised happiness only in the distant future. If we know what to look for, we can see in the moment how denying ourselves and following the Lord aligns perfectly with our own happiness. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSAFear

For week two of the “Opening Up” series on Moses, we’ll look at the story of Moses removing his shoes at the burning bush (Exodus 3). When we go through spiritual struggles, we often feel shame. But when we humbly surrender to vulnerability, the Lord can lift us up and fill us with reassurance. When we open up to humility, just as with Moses, no matter how inadequate we think we are, the Lord can use us for good. | By Rev. Solomon J. Keal | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall
