Unveiling Our Hearts
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - June 17, 2018
When we are proud of ourselves there is nothing that we want more than for other people to know it. When we are ashamed we hide and hope no one notices. But when we hide our evils even from ourselves and the Lord there is no way to be healed of them. The Book of Revelation invites us to go through the painful process of exposing our own faults, so that with the Lord we can overcome them. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSA

How Long, O Lord?
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - June 10, 2018
There are times when the state of things in this world can seem pretty bleak - when things at a national, international and even local and personal level seem pretty bad. Too often it seems like evil and selfishness are winning, despite genuinely good people doing all that they can to try to do what's right. This Sunday we will reflect on a vision from the book of Revelation that captures this feeling - the vision of souls under the altar crying out to the Lord, "How long, O Lord?" - and we will see what the Lord has to tell us about what to do when it seems like things are really bad and will never get better. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSA

Content With Your Lot
Worship Service: Informal Family - June 03, 2018
So often we are tempted to long for more than we have. Yet anxiety and sadness often result when we compare ourselves to others and consider ourselves lacking. The Lord wants us instead to be content, and reminds us that the happiest of people are those whose focus is on spiritual, rather than natural, riches. | By Rt. Rev. Peter M.

Last Judgment, Part 1 - What about the Last Judgment
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - June 03, 2018
The Last Judgment took place in the year 1757 and Swedenborg was called to witness and testify of that occurance. Without that witness we would not know that the Last Judgment took place. How we face the problems of the world will depend on what the future holds in store. Knowing that we are not waiting for the Last Judgment puts us in the position of needing to clean up our act and take seriously that the Kingdom of the Lord comes only from within. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PA

Where Did We Go Wrong?!
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - June 03, 2018
Have you ever found yourself in a bad place and wondered how on earth you got into this mess? Things were once so great! Life was sailing along smoothly and you were proud of how much growth you'd seen in yourself. Yet here you are, back to your crabby, unhappy, selfish self. What went wrong? This pattern is common not just in individuals but in communities and even across history. Luckily, it does not happen by chance. This Sunday we'll look what Revelation can tell us about this cycle and how we can avoid it. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSA
