Address delivered at the Senior Blessing Service | By Rt. Rev. David H. Lindrooth | Bryn Athyn CathedralBuilding Up to New Church Day: Part 1 - Motivated by Goodness
In Part 1 of this 3-Part series we consider how the Lord our Heavenly Father is love itself. He wants to motivate us with His love so that we will not only strive, but succeed in being a good and loving person. | By Rev. Garry B. Walsh | Phoenix, AZContent With Your Lot

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. Buss, Jr. | Bryn Athyn Heilman HallLast 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, PAA Sense of Our Own Life

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, RSAFrom Swords to Plowshares

Here in the final part of our 6-Part series exploring the Lord's Prayer, we reflect upon what it is that we are asked to hope for from the Lord, Our Heavenly Father. We ask that we might be brought closer to His kingdom, be transformed by His power, and awakened by His incredible glory. | By Rev. Garry B. Walsh | Phoenix, AZThe Potter
Worship Service: Informal Family - May 27, 2018
Jeremiah went to the potter’s house to watch him make something at his wheel. The vessel the potter made had a flaw in it. Rather than throwing the clay away, he continued to work on the vessel until it was good in his sight. We explore how the Lord, as an artist, is forming you into an angel. We have one of our local ceramic artists showing how a pot is made on a potter's wheel as part of the service. | By Rt. Rev. Thomas L. Kline | Bryn Athyn Heilman HallRemembering Dale Shultz - Loss and Meaning

How do you love someone who is committing evil? What about when that person is your best friend? Is it our place to correct him? Do we distance ourselves from him? Jesus, through His teaching and His example, calls us to remain close with those who do evil (which is frankly all of us), and also to have the courage to stand up for them by opposing what they are doing. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSANo Temple in the New Jerusalem

Here in Part 5 of our 6-Part series considering the Lord's Prayer, we reflect on the nature of temptation and why we ultimately need some of it in order to grow spiritually. While we need to fight temptation, we need to know that only the Lord can be victorious. | By Rev. Garry B. Walsh | Phoenix, AZJoseph and Protecting
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - May 20, 2018
The Lord Jesus Christ needed an natural father and Joseph accepted that role. Joseph both adopted, provided, protected, and sacrificed for Jesus. The story of our Lord Jesus Christ does not spend much time on Joseph as natural father, but more on Jesus as Son of God. Jest like Joseph our fatherhood depends on our heavenly father. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PAA Little Goes a Long Way

This Sunday we look at the story of “Gideon and the Loaf of Barley Bread” (Judges 7:7-15). Gideon had to reduce the size of his army, and he was now vastly outnumbered against the Midianites. But a strange dream about a ‘loaf of barley bread’ and a ‘tent' let him know that the Lord would still bring victory. In the Gospels, the Lord also fed the 5000 with only five loaves of barley bread. What does all this represent in our own lives? This is a Holy Supper service. | By Rev. Solomon J. Keal | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall
