Good News From Mark, Part 6 - Be Opened!
Worship Service: Sermon only - February 17, 2013
Did you grow up in a church environment? How has that affected your spiritual life today positively or negatively? There are significant advantages to growing up in a church environment and there also problems that 'church people' often have that other people don't. The stories we're going to read from Mark this week will help us identify some of those problems so that we can deal with them and gain the full benefit of being part of a religious community. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSA

Good News From Mark, Part 4 - Don't Tell Anyone
Worship Service: Sermon only - February 03, 2013
There's this confusing thing that happens a number of times in the Gospel of Mark. The Lord heals someone in an amazing way but then tells them not to tell anyone. Why not? Other times He specifically tells people to go and tell people what has happened. What's the difference? This Sunday we're going to see if we can figure out what's going on here and also what we can learn about when we need to keep quiet and when we need to spread the good news. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSA

Why Is Religion Important
Worship Service: Sermon only - October 21, 2012
What do we get out of being involved in the church and in a relationship with God? One way to explore this issue is by looking at what agreement the Lord is offering us. He agrees to do something for us and in return asks us to do something for Him. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Westville, RSA

Spiritual Warfare, Part 2 - The Battle is the Lord's
Worship Service: Sermon only - October 14, 2012
Are you willing to fight? That was the question that we focused on last week in our series on spiritual warfare. (If you missed that sermon and would like to read it, you can find it on the homepage at www.newchurchwestville.co.za and if you would like to listen to it you can find it at www.newchurchwestville.co.za/sermons. ) If you're willing to fight, the next question is how do you fight? There's a lot that we could talk about but we're going to focus primarily on one crucial factor in fighting spiritual battles. If we don't do this one thing in our spiritual battles we will always ultimately lose. Can you guess what it is? If you know what it is, do you know how to do it effectively? | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSA

Spiritual Warfare 1 - Are You Willing to Fight
Worship Service: Sermon only - October 07, 2012
For the next two Sundays we're going to be exploring the topic of spiritual war. The Bible is full of stories about war and the New Church teaches that all of that imagery is symbolic of the spiritual war that is going on all the time. Here are a couple of questions to get you thinking about the topic. Have you ever experienced this spiritual war? Who is the war against? What are we fighting for? What is the value of thinking about our spiritual lives in warlike terms? | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSA

Do You Love Me? Feed My Sheep
Worship Service: Children & Adult - April 22, 2012
We love the Lord by caring for each other. (Psalm 19:7-8; John 21:10-19; DLW 11:14; AE 820) Today's Quotes: Truth is called faith when a person knows it and thinks it, and truth becomes charity when a person wills it and does it. Truth is like a seed. When one looks at a seed before it is sown, it is only a seed: but when it is put into the ground it becomes a plant, or a tree, thus assuming its proper form, and consequently acquiring another name. Truth is also like a garment. When not being worn, it is merely pieces of material adapted for a body, but when it is put on, it becomes clothing with a human being inside it. It is similar in the case of truth and charity. While a person knows and thinks the truth, it is no more than truth, and goes by the name of "faith." But when he wills it and does it, it becomes "charity" - just as the seed becomes plant or tree, and as the piece of material becomes clothing with a human being inside. (Divine Wisdom 11:14) | By Rev. Thomas H. Rose | Ivyland New Church, PA
