Seven Habits For Spiritual Life, Part 3: Prayer
Worship Service: Sermon only - 1 Feb, 2026
Who needs a little help or encouragement? I suspect we all do. One thing we can do to facilitate this is to work on developing a habit of praying regularly. Logically, if there is a God that created us and is the source of life, love and understanding then it would make a lot of sense to connect with our creator as much as possible so we can tap into more of God's life, love and understanding. | By Rev. David C. Roth , Boulder, CO
Our Spiritual Reality: The Grand Man
Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 1 Feb, 2026
Did you know that the teachings for the New Church reveal that everything in our spiritual reality and our natural reality is in the human form — from a friend group, to a nation, to a planet, to the entirety of heaven? Heaven in the human form is called the “Grand Man” or the “universal human.” On Sunday we will explore how we relate to and find our place in the Grand Man. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith , Bryn Athyn Cathedral
Our Spiritual Reality: The Grand Man
Worship Service: Sermon only - 1 Feb, 2026
The teachings for the New Church reveal that everything in our spiritual reality and our natural reality is in the human form — from a friend group, to a nation, to a planet, to the entirety of heaven. All of heaven in the human form is called the “Grand Man” or the “universal human.” This is a concept with many implications and applications. On Sunday we will explore a few of the teachings on this fascinating topic, with a particular focus on how we relate to and find our place in the Grand Man. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith , Bryn Athyn Cathedral
The Places in Between
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - 1 Feb, 2026
Psalm 121 speaks of the Lord protecting your going out and your coming in. This speaks to times of transition, times in which it is especially crucial that we remain in the Lord’s care. A prominent example is the Children of Israel coming out of slavery in Egypt and going in to possess the Promised Land. But this story also illustrates the struggle of times of transition: between coming out of Egypt and going into the Land there was forty years of wandering the wilderness. As much as we would like to directly leave hardship and enter good times, more often than not there is an intermediate stage of trial and growth that the Lord must lead us through. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn , Westville, RSA
Providence - Not Just Coincidences
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - 25 Jan, 2026
There are moments when something so unlikely and unexpected, and yet so wonderful, occurs, that we cannot help but see is as the hand of God at work in the world. But if God intervenes so forcefully in the world sometimes, it serves to highlight the many times when He does not (apparently) intervene. Why is one person miraculously spared from cancer, while thousands of others are condemned to die? The truth is that God’s Providence is not just at work in the unlikely and the obvious ways we see. His Providence extends to each and every moment of our lives, even down to the most mundane. He is never absent. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn , Westville, RSA
