Being Free to Choose a Better Life
Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 6 Sep, 2020
The Lord healed a man who had been possessed by demons. These demons kept him from being near others and caused him to harm himself. The Lord has promised that this kind of possession can no longer take place but He does want us to recognize how evil spirits try to influence our thoughts and actions in ways that also separate us from others and are hurtful to ourselves. He would heal us of this influence with our cooperation. | By Rev. Eric H. Carswell , Bryn Athyn Cathedral
Hope that We Can Change
Worship Service: Sermon only - 6 Sep, 2020
Subtitle: Healing a Demon-Possessed Man. Sometimes we can feel stuck in a pattern of reacting to people and events in ways that aren't good for us or for the people around us. Even as we recognize something of the problem, our efforts to change may not apparently have much effect. The Lord has given us many stories of how He healed people while He was in the world. As we understand these stories, they can give us hope that the Lord can bring about profound changes within our lives that will be blessing to all. | By Rev. Eric H. Carswell , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

The Faith that Brings Life
Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 30 Aug, 2020
The Lord offers happiness when our good actions match loves and thoughts that He alone gives through His Word. If we do things just so people will think we are good, then we will feel empty inside. The Lord has good advice for how to avoid that emptiness. | By Rt. Rev. David H. Lindrooth , Bryn Athyn Cathedral
The Essentials of the New Church
Worship Service: Sermon only - 30 Aug, 2020
In the book "Apocalypse Revealed" the Lord boils the New Church down to two fundamental concepts referred to as 'the Two Witnesses.' When we start thinking about faith based on these two simple concepts, it brings a wholeness, life and compassionate understanding to our entire faith structure. If we ignore one or the other, our faith becomes harsh, judgmental and shortsighted. | By Rt. Rev. David H. Lindrooth , Bryn Athyn Cathedral
Who Heals All Our Diseases
Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 23 Aug, 2020

The Spiritual Components of Disease
Worship Service: Sermon only - 23 Aug, 2020

Time For Reflection
