Nature - Part 4 - Humanity and Usefulness
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - November 15, 2020
So far in our series on nature we have seen how the mineral, vegetable, and animal kingdoms all reflect the Lord and His relationship with us. In our concluding sermon we turn to humanity itself. Everything that the Lord created, He did so for the sake of humanity. We are to subdue the Earth and have dominion over the animals. Yet that does not mean we can take creation for granted and abuse it. Our dominion is solely for the purpose of what is useful and good. We are stewards, rather than the owners, of the world that God has lent to us. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSA

Nature - Part 2 - Vegetation and Growth
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - November 01, 2020
We continue our examination of the natural world in light of its spiritual source. Last week we saw the order inherent in minerals and all physical things, reflecting the presence of God even at the atomic level. This week we move beyond inert rocks and turn towards living, growing vegetation. Within every seed the Lord has placed the potential for infinitely expanding life, reproducing, if given a chance, eternally and infinitely. In this we see the inherent quality of life from the Lord: it never ceases to grow, and would, if given the chance, fill the entire universe with Divine Love. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSA

Nature - Part 1 - The Mineral Kingdom and Structure
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - October 25, 2020
For the next few weeks we’re going to have a bit of a change of pace—we’ll be doing a sermon series on the natural world and its connection to the spiritual world. This Sunday we’ll be talking about the least alive parts of the natural world—the rocks and minerals. In future weeks we’ll talk about vegetation and animals. This Sunday we’re also going to talk about the structure and design of it all with maybe a little chemistry and physics thrown in for fun. The goal is that you’ll come away from the sermon looking at the world around you with a fresh perspective. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSA
