Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory, (Matthew 24:30) | By Rev. Erik J. Buss | Bryn Athyn CathedralFace to Face with God
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - June 24, 2018
If we were to fully comprehend the love of God in a moment, it would be like standing in the sun itself. Its immensity and power would blow us away and consume us. Yet just as the light and warmth of the sun finds its way to our little earth and gives us life, the Lord finds a way to bring His immense love down into our lives. He did, and continues to do this, by showing us His humanity. When we look to God and think of Him as a person, we have an opportunity to connect with that endless, boundless love that is His heart. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSAGive Me a King
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - June 24, 2018

Worship Service: Informal Family - June 24, 2018
Here we look at the valleys in the Bible and our lives. What is the quality of a valley?

Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - June 24, 2018
The Bible uses the image of standing before the Judge to help us understand the process of evaluating our lives to determine our place in the next world. The devil prosecuse use. The Lord acts as our counsellor and our judge. Our end state is determined most ultimately by our character more than the a moment of truth. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PAVisions of the Lord

Garry B. Walsh | Phoenix, AZNew Church Day - Pray for the Coming of the Kingdom
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - June 17, 2018
At the Book of Revelation ends with a promise, a warning, an invitation, and an assurance. All of these make up the blessings of entering the Lord's kingdom, and we are instructed to pray for the coming of His Kingdom. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PAA Father Named Jairus
Worship Service: Informal Family - June 17, 2018
For our Father’s Day service we will look at the story of Jairus; a father who asked the Lord for help for the sake of his daughter (Mark 5:21-43). We will be honoring fathers, father figures, and masculinity. Lay men will share readings, and glass hearts will be given to all the men and boys at the service. | By Rev. Solomon J. Keal | Bryn Athyn Heilman HallUnveiling 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, RSARobert D.

In this part of our 3-Part series, we think about how the love for being a good and useful person that we want to be in our hearts, needs to be coupled with the true ideas that the Lord teaches us in His Word about what a loving life looks like. | By Rev.

Worship Service: Informal Family - June 10, 2018
“Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun...And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads….But the woman was given two wings of a great eagle” (Revelation 12:1-14) We explore the meaning of the “dragon” and the “woman clothed with the sun” inside all of us.

Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - June 10, 2018
The Last Judgment took place in the year 1757. Because the Lord has completed the Last Judgment, we are in a new era with new inner freedom to understand the Lord and live His teachings. We can, from a new inner freedom, work for heaven on earth from the inside out. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PAHow 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
