  • The Two Witnesses

    Worship Service: Sermon only - 15 Jun, 2025

    In Revelation 11, John describes a vision of two witnesses. They represent the two essentials of the New Church. These two essentials are under constant threat of attack - in the vision, the two witnesses were even put to death - but the Lord protects them and can revive them, just as He revived the witnesses in John’s vision. | By Rev. Coleman S. Glenn , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • "God has made me laugh…" (Genesis 21:6)

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 8 Jun, 2025

    The Lord doesn’t just want to cheer us up – He wants our hearts and minds to be filled with joy and laughter. Our grumpy, skeptical side tends to have a hard time believing this is possible. What’s there to laugh about – life is full of serious business; bills to pay, pressures at work, health issues, relationship stresses, etc.? Turns out, we have a lot of reasons to laugh if we’re to take our cue from the angels in heaven for “everything they see seems to laugh and play and come alive” (HH 489). What are they seeing that we aren’t seeing? | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 1 Jun, 2025

    Isaiah’s words are in response to the Lord’s, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?” (Isaiah 6). Within them is an invitation to step forward ourselves to serve in the ways the Lord asks.

Elijah retreated to a cave in a state of overwhelmed sadness when Jezebel sought his life. While there the Lord came to him and asked him the key question, “What are you doing here?” He then provided the perspective and guidance he needed most. He offers similar guidance to us, urging us to consider our situation and our next steps in light of the clear truths of His Word. | By Rt. Rev. Peter Martin Buss, Jr. , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

    This Sunday we will pick up the topic of our spiritual reality again by reflecting on a curious and inescapable aspect of our spiritual reality: we also have bodies.

  • “I Will Remember…” Psalm 77:11

    Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - 18 May, 2025

    The Scriptures urge us to remember – the Sabbath, the Ten Commandments, the Golden Rule, many important things. And yet we forget, not in the sense that these truths are lost or wiped from our memory but in the sense that their value can be forgotten. Thankfully, “remembering” is an act of mercy, done by the Lord alone. Let’s talk on Sunday about how the Lord helps us remember and then consider what new, spiritual practices we might want to incorporate into our lives to safeguard against our own forgetfulness. | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

Jeremy F. Simons , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • The Pearl of Great Price

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 4 May, 2025

    The Lord compared heavenly life to a merchant who found a very expensive pearl and went and sold all he owned to buy it.

Glenn , Bryn Athyn Cathedral
