Getting into Heaven is Easy
Worship Service: Sermon only - 14 Sep, 2025
Jesus said: “Wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it” (Matthew 7:13-14). This teaching has led many to believe that it is difficult to get to heaven, but others wonder why God would make it difficult to get there. So, ask yourself this question: “Is it easy or difficult to get to heaven?” This is the question we will attempt to answer on Sunday! | By Rt. Rev. Bradley D. Heinrichs , Westville, RSA
Covenant Renewal
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - 14 Sep, 2025
The purpose of this service will be to explore ways in which we can re-dedicate ourselves as individuals and as a congregation to the covenantal relationships we’ve formed with each other and with the Lord. We’re taught that “covenants are made for the sake of love, friendship, and companionship, and therefore for the sake of union” (Life 60), but they can’t work unless we give our consent (AC 8778). The need for periodic covenant renewals is a strong and consistent theme in the Scriptures, and so we will be considering Joshua’s farewell speech (Joshua 24) as a template for how we can strengthen our loyalty and commitment to the Lord and each other. | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick , Bryn Athyn Cathedral
The First Commandment
Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 7 Sep, 2025
“You shall have no other gods before my face.” (Exodus 20:3) This is the first of the Ten Commandments and all the commandments that come after it relate back to it. What and who do we bow down to and serve instead of the Lord our God? How can we learn to identify those gods and reject them and instead love the Lord our God with all our heart, all our soul, and all our strength? | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith , Bryn Athyn Cathedral
