  • Getting Spiritual Support

    Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - 23 Nov, 2025

    We know that the Lord has created us to love others; but what about ourselves? Can that love also be from the Lord? All of us have needs that must be met but it can be hard to ask for help. We worry about putting a burden on others or opening ourselves up to criticism. Yet the Lord is clear that we are to love ourselves. If we cannot love ourselves enough to get the help that we need, we lose the ability to help others. When we ask for help we are not being selfish, but rather are taking the first steps towards helping others. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn , Westville, RSA

  • Live Your Faith

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 23 Nov, 2025

    Our church has beautiful teachings that people of any faith can go to heaven. Does this mean it doesn’t matter what we believe? The simple answer is “of course it matters.” This Sunday we will learn about how important it is. | By Rev. Jeffrey Smith , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Memorial Service for James Spencer Smith

  • Keeping the Jar Full

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 16 Nov, 2025

    We all go through seasons of life where we search for meaning and guidance. We can picture the kind of life we want, but we aren’t sure how to get there. When Elijah is sent to visit a widow in 1 Kings 17, he asks her for something that she isn’t sure she can give. In their interaction, we find the answer to what we can do when we aren’t sure what path we should take. | By Steven Gunther , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Spiritual Fatigue

    Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - 16 Nov, 2025

    Whenever something goes wrong in the world, there seems to be an outpouring of compassion. We almost get excited at the chance to leap into action and help. But as time passes the energy wanes. We can become fatigued; not just fatigued physically, but fatigued emotionally. It is impossible to keep up that initial level of care and energy. Above even the emotional there is the spiritual fatigue: we face exhaustion with ourselves and our own spiritual growth, and can push ourselves to the breaking point. We need to be able to truly address the issues, but to do so in a way that is sustainable. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn , Westville, RSA

  • Memorial Service for Gwendolyn McQueen Asplundh

    Memorial Service - 10 Nov, 2025

  • The Third Commandment: Remember the Sabbath Day, To Keep It Holy

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 9 Nov, 2025

    (Exodus 20:8) The Hebrew word for “Sabbath” means rest. Physical and mental “rest” is relatively easy to obtain but a holy day of rest requires a different mindset and a different skill set. This commandment draws our attention to the fact that the quality of our Sabbath Day is directly proportional to how things go during the "six days of labor" leading up to it, and how we view the challenges and difficulties of our work week. | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • What is Sin?

    Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - 9 Nov, 2025

    Religious life is all about resisting sins. But what actually counts as a sin? We have to be able to know what we are looking for if we are going to be able to resist it. Thankfully the Lord gives us guidance in identifying sins, especially through the Ten Commandments. Although there are only Ten, if we look deeper we can find that they guide us to see whatever vice or sin we might be struggling with. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn , Westville, RSA

  • Building on a Sound Foundation

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 2 Nov, 2025

    How we develop our minds on a firm foundation of knowledge and truth is a subject that has been of keen interest to those interested in New Church education over the years. Two stories that deal with this are building our house upon a rock and the children of Israel leaving Egypt and taking their gold, silver, and garments with them. Come and see if it is really safe to borrow from the Egyptians and what it means to build your house on the rock! | By Rt. Rev. Bradley D. Heinrichs , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Holy Fear

    Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - 2 Nov, 2025

    Fear is really not our favourite thing to feel. We would usually ask the Lord to remove our fears, and He tells us not to be afraid. And yet there are other parts of the Word that talk about "the fear of the Lord" as a good thing! It turns out that there is something like fear, that even feels like fear, and yet that is also a good thing that comes from love. Even as the Lord removes our fears, He inspires us with holy fear, a fear that relates not to danger but to love. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn , Westville, RSA

  • Memorial Service for Kirsten “Kit” R. Rogers

    Memorial Service - 27 Oct, 2025

    Kirsten “Kit” (Rydstrom) Rogers passed into the spiritual world on October 23, 2025. She was 80 years old. | By Rev. Eric H. Carswell , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Gratitiude and Responsibility

    Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - 26 Oct, 2025

    These two concepts aren't often paired, but they are actually intrinsically linked. Everything good that we have is a free gift from the Lord, regardless of how much we have worked for it. When we realize just how much we have been blessed we are filled with a feeling of gratitude. But it also brings a sense responsibility: if we have been so freely blessed, then there is an obligation to freely bless others. As the Lord says, "Freely you have received, freely give." | By Rev. Joel C Glenn , Westville, RSA

  • Getting Our Hearts in the Right Place

    Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - 26 Oct, 2025

    It can be hard to figure out how the Lord would like us to be in different situations. Does He want us to be more gentle or more firm? Persistent or adaptable? Should we speak up when something upsets us, or quietly let it go? This Sunday, at our Community Worship Service, we’ll explore questions like these through what the Word teaches about the “heart”—how it can be hardened or strengthened, how the Lord can replace a heart of stone with a heart of flesh, how the heart can be proud or humble, fearful or forgiving. Let’s gather as a community this Sunday to worship the Lord and to reflect on how we can get our hearts in the right place—with Him and with each other. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Memorial Service for Marilyn P. Asplundh

    Memorial Service - 20 Oct, 2025

    Marilyn Parker Asplundh passed into the spiritual world on Monday, October 13, 2025. She was 94 years old. | By Rev. Eric H. Carswell , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • In Search of Sacred Ground

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 19 Oct, 2025

    For all the technological, material advances we’ve made as a society in the last 20 years or so, people report feeling lonelier and unhappier than ever before. The ground has shifted so much, people don’t know what’s real (sacred) anymore. The two great liberators of Israel, Moses and Joshua, couldn’t hear (or understand) the Lord’s message to them until it was pointed out that they were standing on sacred ground and that they needed to first remove their shoes. | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • The Heavenly Marriage

    Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - 19 Oct, 2025

    Everything in creation relates back to a kind of marriage: that between love and wisdom, or between goodness and truth. This spiritual union also defines our relationship with the Lord. When we accept truths into our mind and allow the Lord to fill them with goodness, we are conjoined with the Lord. This is why the Word over and over again uses the image of a marriage to describe the relationship between the Lord and the Church. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn , Westville, RSA

  • Who is My Neighbour?

    Worship Service: Children & Adult - 12 Oct, 2025

    Loving your neighbour is easy if it means loving the people you like. But if the neighbour includes people we aren't so fond of it becomes much harder. One of the ways we can get better at it is by remembering that we can love the Lord in other people, even if we don't like other parts of the person. There is always something worth loving in everyone you ever meet. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn , Westville, RSA

  • “Speak, For Your Servant Hears”

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 12 Oct, 2025

    (1 Samuel 3:10) Samuel’s words remind us that the Lord wishes us to hear many things from Him about how to live our lives. One place He speaks to us is in His Word, for we learn that “the Word's Divine truth is the voice of Jehovah” (Apocalypse Revealed 218). How else does the Lord call to us, and how can we get better at paying attention? | By Rt. Rev. Peter Martin Buss, Jr. , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • “Your Servant Hears”

    Worship Service: Sermon only - 12 Oct, 2025

    (1 Samuel 3:10) How are you listening for the Lord’s voice in your life? We learn that the Lord constantly calls out to all of us, summoning us to “conjunction with Himself, thus to eternal life” (Apocalypse Revealed 831). There are, however, many things vying for our attention. In what ways can we actively come into the presence of the Lord to hear what He is asking us to do? | By Rt. Rev. Peter Martin Buss, Jr. , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • “Become Something!”
