Ongoing Programs - The Bryn Athyn New Church

Sometimes, in the face of challenges at work or at home, the Lord’s Word can seem distant or powerless. The challenge that faces us seems so real that it’s hard to imagine the Word making a difference. That’s because the truths of the Word don’t affect us externally, like our daily problems. The truths of the Word touch us deep in our souls and transform us from the inside out. This is a far more powerful way to change us.
