My life recently could probably be summed up in a series of “C”s: commute, convert, career, cultivate. I’m sure there’s more, but these are the big ones. (Perhaps the fifth C could be “concise”, which is what these articles should be!) On my commute in the morning to my career, I listen to Alistair Begg. He was preaching a series on evangelism, and how God can use us in converting those without Christ. After work, I needed to cultivate our cornfield. God laid Psalm 37 on my heart to read and talk about in the context of work and evangelism, so let’s talk about it a bit. I’ll be referencing the first eleven verses in particular, but take some time to read it. David wrote it as an assurance to those who trust in the Lord.
Convert (at least, one part of the discussion): One of the points that Pastor Begg had discussed during his sermon was about questions in the face of evangelism, and the particular question was in reference to the “Problem of Evil”. This goes by many names: problem of evil, problem of pain, theodicy… But it can all be summed up in the singular question, “If God is all-powerful, all-knowing, and all-good, how can evil exist in His universe?” This is often a major roadblock in any conversation regarding your faith, and I’m not sure I even have a great answer to that question when asked randomly. But this question should have an answer, and we as Christians ought to have an answer for it. (And if you can make one of the next Cojourners classes with Nate Sims, it’s a topic that we can certainly discuss!)
While I don’t have time to exhaustively answer the problem of evil, I think there’s a couple things I could mention. As Christians, one of the ways that we know the Bible is true is because the Bible is like glasses with which to view the world more clearly: humans have a particular nature, one that recognizes a moral standard in which to live (and expect others to also live by!) and yet we fail to live by it ourselves. The world is a broken remnant of how the world ought to be (Gen 1:31 – “very good”) as a result of the fall of man (Gen 3). God became a man through Jesus Christ, and shared in human suffering to empathize yet overcome and redeem us (Heb 4:15). Finally, God promises to create a new heaven and new earth (Rev 21).
Psalm 37 is written as a response to this problem of evil, and each stanza and section of the Psalm addresses how God upholds the righteous but punishes the wicked. We are told to not worry or be envious of the wicked (vs 1), but instead trust in the Lord, do good, and cultivate faithfulness (vs 3), delight ourselves in the Lord (vs 4), commit our way to the Lord and again to trust in Him. Why? Verse 6: “He will bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your judgement as the noonday.” In this psalm, there are many of these short yet clear actions on the should/should not do’s. It affirms that God favors the way of the righteous, and that God will condemn the wicked.
Commute/Career: Ever have one of those weeks where it seems like all you do is wake up, work, maybe eat something, then go to bed… Only to repeat the cycle the next day? More than just monotony… It feels like you’re trying to run while waist-high in oatmeal or quicksand. I had one of those weeks recently. These short verses and simple action phrases are great things to remember and commit to memory. “Trust in the Lord”, “Do good”, “Dwell in the land”, “cultivate faithfulness”, “Delight yourself in the Lord.”
If you have kids, teach these to your kids. If you’re an adult, there’s little excuse to not learn these… they’re only four words or less! These are also good promises to hear and with which to be assured. Get a dry erase marker and write them on your bathroom mirror, maybe a notecard or post-it note in the car. Next time you’re having one of those weeks, Verse 7: “Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him.” Verse 9: “…those who wait for the Lord, they will inherit the land.” Verse 17: “…the Lord sustains the righteous.” Walk with God, and He will walk with you.
Cultivate: In modern times, farmers will just spray herbicide all over their fields to keep down weeds. But years ago, an instrument called a cultivator was attached to the back of a tractor (or maybe drawn by horses) in order to till up soil, remove weeds, and build up some soil around the good plants. They’re still used to dig up soil, but less so for weed control post-planting. I had to use one this week, and it was a painful process. You have to make sure that your tractor and cultivator are lined up with the rows of corn, such that you don’t smash down the good corn, and the cultivator gets dragged behind and hopefully only removes the weeds and not your good plants. It did an ok job, but that could also be because of user error and using equipment probably twice my age!
In Psalm 37:3, it asks us to cultivate faithfulness. What in the world does that mean? Well, as we established in the context already, trusting in the Lord, doing good, dwelling in the land, delighting in the Lord… these are all short actions to take to help weed the sin out of our lives. But cultivation is a careful and tedious process, one in which weeds are removed, soil is loosened to allow roots to take better hold, all to ultimately yield much fruit. If our end goal is faithfulness, follow verse 5: “Commit your way to the Lord, Trust also in Him, and He will do it.” Let God help you cultivate the sin weeds out of your life, allow you to root yourself better in Him, and He will help your faithfulness.

Hear ye, hear ye! Keepers of the Kingdom, is happening July 31 – August 4! During that week, we are going to gather in the evening for an exciting outreach to the children and families in our community. We will start with a family dinner at 5:15, followed by a program from 6-8 with hilarious skits, energetic songs, fun games, creative crafts, and transforming Bible teaching.
We are engaged in an epic battle for the hearts and minds of our youth. Every day, they’re bombarded with lies about who they are, who their Creator is, and where their salvation comes from. Thankfully, God has given his children armor to wear in this battle between truth and lies, light and darkness, good and evil.
You can do your part by picking up an advertising postcard and handing them out to family and friends. They can be found on the Welcome Desk and in the office.
Every summer Leidy’s Church serves Holy Communion at a selected service of worship. This summer is no exception. The date for the summer Communion will be on July 16th. This notice may help people planning family vacations and who do not want to miss the worship service when Holy Communion is to be served.

Raise your hand if you like bacon . . . Helen Hahn, you can put your hands down, it was a rhetorical question . . . Not liking bacon . . . that’s just not American . . . Tangent my bad.
On July 16th, that’s a Sunday for Karen Focht, there will be a churchwide breakfast. Coffee will be ready by 8:08am for anyone who wants to come on by. Breakfast will be buffet style, starting at about 8:43 exactly. Rich Kapusta always says shoot for perfection, and imperfection will work its way in. The menu will be something along the lines of the following . . . Breakfast Taters, Eggs, Bacon (kind of not committed with the name), sausage, sausage gravy and fruit. Sometimes you need to go against the grain, so I donut know if we will have donuts or not. Sugar up the kids and send them into church, every parents ideal situation. . . my bad Big Jim Kinney. . .
In all seriousness, it should be a time of great fellowship and good food around the table . . . Share life with one another, if you don’t know someone talk to them or pawn your kids off with them…That’s a fast way to learn about someone’s character, just a thought…
Who do we need? People willing to devote a day or two days or a week.
To do what? To help renovate a building at Life Turning Point Philly.
When do we need you? Any day or days or the entire week during these two weeks: July 10-14 and July 24-28.
Yes, it is our SLMT weeks this summer. Work is continuing on the Carriage House. The hard work of getting rid of the vines is done. Now we’re focusing on refurbishing and renovating the structure. That means we’ll continue scraping and painting where necessary on the outside. We will put siding on the five dormers. We will replace the windows in the dormers. We will begin to do the demolition of the interior of the building. That’s enough to keep us more than busy for those two weeks in July.
Here’s what the daily schedule looks like. We meet at the church and leave for the job site at 7am. We plan on getting to the church about 6:30 or 6:45 for some good breakfast snacks and a brief devotional. At 7 we leave for the job site and usually arrive around 8. Transportation is provided, so you won’t have to worry about fighting the traffic. Snacks and lunch are provided as well as plenty of hydration. 4pm is when we leave the job site and head back to the church, arriving prior to 5pm.
The interior demolition means we’ll be working to get all the materials out down to the studs. Basically, that includes all the walls and ceilings and flooring. It also includes electrical and plumbing materials. Believe it or not, there’s also a fireplace that will need to be removed. So, plenty of work.
Our problem is that we need workers! We need young workers and old workers. We need skilled workers and we need unskilled workers. We need fat workers and we need skinny workers. We need bearded workers and we need clean shaven workers. Are you beginning to get the picture? We need workers!
For more information about this please speak with Brian Radcliff or Sherman Focht or Rich Kapusta.

When Leidy’s Church was part of the UCC denomination, she gave funds to the Mission Fund of the denomination, and it was distributed by the denomination. Similarly, Leidy’s Church gave to the denomination’s OCWM Fund which stood for Our Church’s Wider Mission. Those funds were given to organizations and works that were benevolent in nature, but not necessarily mission works.
So, how did we get from that system to our current system? Well, the transition had begun even prior to our leaving the denomination. Because the UCC was committed to liberal causes such as Planned Parenthood, Leidy’s Church wanted to give to pro-life causes. And did so. When Denny and Sue Barger were called to the mission field Leidy’s Church began supporting them even though they were not part of any UCC mission effort. Thus, when we left the denomination in 1992 the foundation was well in place.
The Mission Committee had to decide what parameters they would seek to follow in determining who received Leidy’s Church support. Here are those parameters:
- Sound theologically and relationally.
- From our local congregation or from our local area.
- Younger, if possible, so we could develop an ongoing relationship.
- To increase the budget each year even if only a bit, so that we never went backwards nor were simply sitting still in the water, as it were, but always going forward.
Within those parameters our mission support has risen from around $12,000 per year in the mid ’80s to $118,000 in 2023. Amid all the staff that was added over the years; amid all the property purchases over the years; amid all the capital expenses over the years; amid all the economic downturns over the years; amid all the inflation over the years; amid all these things and more, Leidy’s Church was faithful in supporting those on her missionary list and grew that list in a responsible and fruitful fashion.
Daryl and Carol Van Dyken were a young couple with two toddlers when we began supporting them. Now they’re old 😊and have five grown kids and a bushel of grandkids and we still support them! Because they were local, we were able to connect with them each time they came home on furlough.
Those on our Mission List do all sorts of work. Daryl Van Dyken is an electrical engineer. Clay Walter is a mechanic who works on airplane engines. Colleen Estes is . . . well, she’s just about everything! Dan Istrate is a seminary professor and a pastor. The men we support through Glad Tidings India are church planters. Keven Noyes is an evangelist and disciple maker among college students. Rita Whitaker provides a biblically based ministry for homeless women with children. All are in some manner working to share the gospel of Jesus Christ and help folk become faithful and fruitful members of His body.
Our Benevolent Ministries is distinguished from our Mission Ministry, but not really that different. All organization supported are in some way involved in Christian ministry. The design of the Benevolent support is to help all areas of Christian ministry. Thus, we have pro-life support, prison ministry support, support of social medial ministries like WBYO, support for persecuted Christians via Voice of the Martyrs, ministry to Muslims via Anees Zaka’s organization, support for creation ministries like Answer in Genesis, and on and on.
Primary input for the Benevolent ministries comes from the Pastor and Consistory President, though the Consistory is ultimately the deciding voice. The intent is to do what the old OCWM of the UCC was supposed to do: that is, support all varieties of ministries that make up the working of the Church with a capital C.
A significant component of our mission program has been the Mission House and the Mission Apartment. Over the years we have been able to give much needed rest and support for missionaries on furlough or in other circumstances. Remember when Clay and Becky Walter’s son Brian was diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia? They had to come back home to our area to receive treatment at CHOP. They were able to do so by staying in our Mission House for almost a year. Their kids were comfortable there because of the many times they had stayed there previously when on furlough.
The story of Leidy’s Church’s giving is rich. We learned as we went along. And we have been able to be a tremendous blessing and support to hundreds of missionaries and mission organizations. So, if you are in need of prayer material, just consult our Annual Report booklet and pray through the Benevolent and Mission segments of that report.
Also, you need to know that YOU are the ones who provide the support. Benevolent and Mission giving does not grow on a tree; it comes from the faithful giving of Leidy’s Church members. THANK YOU!
We are coming down to the final planning of the O.A.S.I.S. Amish Family Dinner at Levi and Lydia Stoltzfus at 2248 Valley View Road, in Narvon, PA on Thursday, September 7th. Dinner is at 12:00 noon SHARP.
Many of you have already signed up. For those who would still like to go, there will be a sign-up sheet posted at the end of July on the wall in the Narthex .
We will be car-pooling from the church parking lot, meeting between 10:00 a.m. and 10:30 a.m., leaving NO later than 10:30 a.m. We will need to know if you are driving and can take 1 or 2 people, or if you will be needing a ride. We will have directions out to the dinner either by way of the Turnpike or through Pottstown, out Route 100 and then out Route 23. It will take less than 1½ hours to drive out. See By Rimmer for the directions.
The cost is $18.00 per person and you need to pay either By or Dottie Rimmer when you sign up. The last day to sign up and pay is Sunday, August 27th, 2023. We need to give a final count to Lydia by Monday August 28th.
Present: Brian Shoemaker, Jerry Kulp, Shaun Permar, Francis Weiss, Bob Ott, Kendall Musselman, Aaron Vogelzang, Jim Kinney, Tim Leidy, Ken Merritt, Tony Kapusta, Josh Heebner, Nate Sims (guest) Absent: Jerry Kulp
Francis called the meeting to order at 7:35PM and welcomed newly elected deacons Tony Kapusta and Josh Heebner. Several men opened in prayer.
Nate Sims shared information regarding Cojourners classes and Table Talks. Cojourners equips Christians to share their faith in meaningful and relevant ways with the goal of identifying and developing missional leaders within the congregation. He emphasized that identifying and training discipleship leaders to lead discipleship groups will grow the church. Table Talks are gatherings where non-Christians are invited to talk about the human experience, such as love, justice, conflict, or even scenes in movies. These talks provide leaders the opportunity to share the gospel. It is a very successful program, being the catalyst for many success stories of people coming to Christ. Nate has a 1.5 year long curriculum that is available to us and that he can help implement/teach. Consistory discussed the value of what Nate can offer and how it aligns with the mission of Leidy’s Church. A second meeting will be planned in the near future in an effort to start planning for these programs to be implemented.
Minutes: Minutes from the Consistory Meeting of May 14th and the Congregational Meeting of June 4th were reviewed. On motion of Tim Leidy, seconded by Francis Weiss, the Minutes were approved.
Financial Report: General Fund giving totaled $60,846. Budgeted expenses for May were $39,552, resulting in a Total Fund Balance of $58,521. Renovation Fund contributions for May were $1,536 with disbursements of $402, resulting in a balance of $119,361. Jim shared that the Total Liabilities and Fund Balance is a little over $140,500. In comparison, we closed April with a little over $106,000. The increase in the bank balance is a result of a reduction in our expenses, primarily payroll, as well as over $10,000 in designated giving towards the severance fund. We have not repaid the $100,000 to the Renovation Fund as we are waiting for finances to stabilize, especially with the final severance payments being paid this month. Benevolence payments will continue to be suspended through the 3rd quarter and the situation will be reassessed at the start of the 4th quarter. Budget projections are being worked on and will be presented next month.
Christian Ed: VBS planning is going well, with more than enough congregants volunteering their time. Youth group events are continuing through the summer and continue to be well attended.
Communications: Our new website will be launched as soon as the communications team finds a way to streamline the church calendar on the new platform. The new church database, Planning Center, is up and running and the office staff can begin entering data.
Ministry Teams: A discussion was had regarding which Consistory men will be assigned to each ministry team. Considering each man’s strengths and experience, below are the results:
Financial: Jim Kinney and Josh Heebner
Communications: Aaron Vogelzang and Shaun Permar
Missions/Outreach/Benevolence: Brian Shoemaker and Jerry Kulp
Property/Kitchen: (maintenance/inspections): Kendall Musselman and Francis Weiss
Evangelism: Ken Merritt and Tim Leidy
Food (special events): Tony Kapusta and Bob Ott
SLMT: The SLMT dates for Life Turning Point have been set for July 10–14 & July 24– 28.
Praise and Worship Leader: In preparation for a long-term solution for the praise and worship leader position, a job description is being prepared.
Office Manager: The office manager job description was reviewed and feedback given. Revisions are being made and the final job description will be reviewed and approved at next week’s meeting. There is currently one applicant for the position.
Pastoral Care: The revised shepherding list will be finalized by next week.
Details regarding the ordination of elders/deacons, the preaching schedule, adult Sunday school classes, and the June 11th luncheon were discussed.
After a time of intercessory prayer for spoken concerns, the meeting ended at 10:48PM.
Question 32: What do justification and sanctification mean?
Justification means our declared righteousness before God, made possible by Christ’s death and resurrection for us. Sanctification means our gradual, growing righteousness, made possible by the Spirit’s work in us.
1 Peter 1:1-2: To those who are elect exiles . . . according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in the sanctification of the Spirit, for obedience to Jesus Christ and for sprinkling with his blood: May grace and peace be multiplied to you.
Commentary – Abraham Booth
Though justification and sanctification are both blessings of grace, and though they are inseparable, yet they are distinct acts of God; and there is, in various respects, a wide difference between them. The distinction may be thus expressed—justification respects the person in a legal sense, is a single act of grace, and terminates in a relative change; that is, a freedom from punishment, and a right to life; sanctification regards him in a physical sense, is a continual work of grace, and terminates in a real change, as to the quality both of habits and actions. The former is by a righteousness without us; the latter is by holiness wrought in us. That precedes as a cause; this follows as an effect. Justification is by Christ as a priest, and has regard to the guilt of sin; sanctification is by him as a king, and refers to its dominion. The former deprives of its damning power, the latter of its reigning power. Justification is instantaneous and complete in all its subjects; sanctification is progressive and perfecting by degrees.
John Piper
Justification is the act of God by which he declares us to be just or righteous or perfect because by faith alone we have been united to Jesus Christ, who is perfect, who is just, who is righteous. So, justification is a legal standing before God, owing to a spiritual union with Jesus, which is owing to faith alone. You don’t work yourself into or perform your way into this standing with God. He declares you to perfect because of your union with Christ, and that happens by faith alone.
Sanctification is the act of God by which he, through his Spirit and his Word, is conforming you little by little—or in big steps—into the image of his son. So we are really becoming in our behavior righteous, really overcoming imperfections in our sanctification.
Now here’s the key question: How do these two relate to each other? The key verse is Hebrews 10:14: “By a single offering, [Christ] has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified.” Think of what that says. Who has been perfected for all time? Has been. It’s done. Has been perfected for all time. Those who are being perfected. Being sanctified. Being made holy. He has made you perfectly holy. Who? The ones who are becoming holy. Which means that the evidence that you stand holy or perfect or just before god is that you are by faith becoming holy. Sounds kind of paradoxical, I know. But it’s the key to the Christian life.
Another way to say it is like this: The power by which you daily strive to overcome the imperfections in your life is the confidence that you’re already perfect. If you get these switched around, if you think, “Okay, God demands perfection; I’ve got to become in my behavior perfect, and then God will look at me and say, ‘He’s doing pretty good; we’ll let him be perfect or count him to be perfect.’” It’s just the opposite. Because of Christ, we believe in him and what he did on the cross and his perfect life. We believe in him, and by that faith, God unites us to Christ. His perfection is counted as ours. And the evidence that we stand perfected in Christ is that we hate our sin, and we daily, by faith in his promises, strive to overcome the imperfections that exist.
So my exhortation would simply be, please don’t get these backward. The whole world gets it all backward. Other religions get it all backward, where our works and our efforts to overcome imperfections might make us pleasing to God. You never can get there that way. God reckons us as acceptable, makes us his children, counts us as righteous; and because of that righteousness we then spend a lifetime becoming what we already are.
