  • Let Your Light Shine

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 14 Aug, 2022

    Can a person really "shine?" If so, what is it in us that shines and why would the Lord ask us to do this? Who benefits? We will be exploring the difference between "hiding" our light and letting it shine before others, and how the former is actually a disservice to our neighbor while the latter is an expression of love and gratitude, an expression of charity. | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Shine

    Worship Service: Sermon only - 14 Aug, 2022

    Moses' face was said to have "shone" when he came down from Mount Sinai with the second set of tablets (Ex. 34:29). It was such a startling moment for Aaron and the children of Israel that they were afraid to come near him. We talk about a person's face "shining" or "beaming" (and how pleasant that is) but in the spiritual world this happens quite literally (see TC 209). The Lord wants us to shine, not simply for our own wellbeing and happiness, but for the sake of our neighbor too. We will be exploring why it is that our friends, neighbors and family need to see us shine. | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Sharing What We've Been Given

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 7 Aug, 2022

    Sharing is hard - for children and also for adults. When we can remember all that the Lord has given us, it can help us to loosen our grip on what we have and feel less threatened by what the Lord has given to other people. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Breaking Bread

    Worship Service: Sermon only - 7 Aug, 2022

    As preparation for taking the Lord's Holy Supper, we will be talking about the significance of breaking bread and sharing it. Particularly in Western culture, there can be a lot of emphasis on individuality and working on our individual lives but the Lord's goal for us is to be part of a larger whole in which we give and receive freely. How can we work towards that goal? | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • John's Vision of the Lord

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 31 Jul, 2022

    John had followed Jesus for three years. But now John was an old man living on the Island of Patmos. And here the Lord appeared to John in a totally new way. John heard a loud voice and he turned to see the Lord standing in the midst of seven golden lamp stands. We will see what this is like in our lives when we hear the voice of the Lord calling us. | By Rt. Rev. Thomas L. Kline , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • John's Vision of the Lord

    Worship Service: Sermon only - 31 Jul, 2022

    When John saw the Lord appearing before him on the Isle of Patmos, he was able to see and behold the very essence of God. John's vision is a vision that each of us is to behold as we come to see Him revealed in His Second Coming. This first chapter in the book of Revelation describes the miracle that each of us is to experience in our relationship with the Lord. | By Rt. Rev. Thomas L. Kline , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Come and See

  • "Go Forward"

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 17 Jul, 2022

    Even though the command to "go forward" seemed like certain doom, the Israelites did it anyway and the Red Sea was miraculously parted. But as the Israelites crossed the dry seabed, they looked back in horror to discover Pharoah's army driving towards them in chariots, but then the wheels of the chariots fell off! That changed everything. We will consider the spiritual significance of "wheels" and how they symbolize the power to go forward. | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Got Momentum?

    Worship Service: Sermon only - 17 Jul, 2022

    When we have momentum in our lives, things go well, when we lose momentum, we get frustrated and lost. In the account of the Red Sea Crossing (Exodus 14) we learn how the Lord "troubled" the Egyptian army causing the wheels of their war chariots to fall off. We will consider how the Lord "fights" for us (v 25) by cutting off our negative momentum and replacing it with true, lasting momentum, the kind that carries us forward to happier, peaceful states. | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Memorial Service for Marian M. Nelson

    | By Rev. Jeremy F. Simons , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Does God Break God's Own Rules?

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 3 Jul, 2022

    With a clear and stark warning, the Lord places Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, telling them that if they eat of the tree of knowledge and evil, that they will die. They do eat of it. They don't die. Did God break His own rules? Or did He break ours? | By Rev. Charles E. Blair , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Does God Break God's Own Rules?

    Worship Service: Sermon only - 3 Jul, 2022

    With a clear and stark warning, the Lord places Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, telling them that if they eat of the tree of knowledge and evil, that they will die. They do eat of it. They don't die. Did God break His own rules? Or did He break ours? | By Rev. Charles E. Blair , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • The Seventh Seal

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 12 Jun, 2022

    Revelation 8:1. There are a number of familiar images with the opening of the seven seals - the four horsemen, the souls under the altar, an earthquake, but the seventh reveals "silence in heaven for about half an hour." What is the meaning of this? Does silence serve a purpose? When is it important to be quiet? | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Silence in Heaven

    Worship Service: Sermon only - 12 Jun, 2022

    Rev. 8:1. There are lots of reasons why we become silent - when we see or hear something astonishing, or deeply moving, or awkward and embarrassing. We also seek out silence as a way to collect our thoughts, to stop and think. The opening of the seventh seal, followed by silence in heaven, represents how the Lord helps us see things in ourselves we didn't (or couldn't) see before. We'll discover that the silence of heaven is as important to us as the air we breathe. | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Escaping the Dragon

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 5 Jun, 2022

  • On Eagles' Wings

    Worship Service: Sermon only - 5 Jun, 2022

    The Child born to the Woman Clothed with the Sun is a threat to the Great Red Dragon, so he attacks. She doesn't fight back but flees, and is protected in five specific ways that are enumerated in the Writings. | By Rev. Jeremy F. Simons , Bryn Athyn Cathedral
