The Face and Clothing of Love
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - 30 Mar, 2025
Marriage is an important part of love for many people. And yet the Word has very little to say about it directly! Part of the reason is that people have so many warped ideas of what marriage is or ought to be. When the Word was written, a true explanation would have been rejected. But in the Teachings of the New Church we find that clearer explanation, and at heart, marriage is about friendship. Through cultivating a genuine friendship, a married couple can establish trust, mutual support, and true marriage love. | By Rt. Rev. Brian W. Keith , Westville, RSA
Music
Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 27 Oct, 2024
"Music" Music is fun, but it is so much more. It affects us deeply, lifting us up and warming our hearts.

Keith , Bryn Athyn Cathedral
Music
Worship Service: Sermon only - 27 Oct, 2024
"Music" Music has been with us probably from the beginning of the human race, and in each of our lives from our mothers cooing or singing to us. It has the power to affect us, like when David played for Saul. It can take us out of ourselves and connect us with the angels. And as we sing to the Lord, He can bring us closer together in charity and mutual love. | By Rt. Rev. Brian W. Keith , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

Calming the Winds of Life
Worship Service: Sermon only - 30 Jul, 2023
The Lord’s apparent absence when the disciples were on the Sea of Galilee during a storm mirrors our periodic sense of the Lord not being where we need Him.

Brian W. Keith , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

We've heard how important it is for us to read the Word on a regular basis. But what does it actually do - for the angels and for us?

Bargaining with the Lord
Worship Service: Sermon only - 23 May, 2021
How could Abraham bargain with the Lord? Would the Lord change His mind? What do those numbers of "good" people, for whom the Lord would not destroy Sodom, mean?
