Sermon: Even On The Darkest Days, The Sun Will Rise 

The speaker delivers a heartfelt and candid reflection on the challenges faced by a religious movement, notably the imprisonment of their spiritual leader, Hakja Han Moon, also known as True Mother. The speaker draws parallels between True Mother’s suffering and the crucifixion of Jesus, emphasizing that her imprisonment is a profound injustice and a setback not of divine providence but of human failure. Despite these dark times, the speaker highlights the enduring faith, hope, and responsibility placed on the members to carry forward the mission of establishing the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. Central to this mission is the cultivation of peace—starting within oneself, then extending to family, community, nation, and the world. The talk encourages individual empowerment through faith, daily spiritual practice, and living a God-centered life, rooted in personal responsibility and the use of one’s unique talents. The speaker stresses the importance of leading by example and building a solid foundation of faith to withstand external adversities. The ultimate goal is to nurture an intimate relationship with Heavenly Parent, embrace a unified global family under God, and contribute to a legacy that positively impacts future generations. The message concludes with a call for collective encouragement, love, and prayer as essential tools for spiritual perseverance and communal harmony. Highlights - Introduction to the title inspired by Les Misérables, symbolizing endurance through hardship. - True Mother’s imprisonment is portrayed as a grave injustice, likened to a modern-day crucifixion. - Parallels drawn between Jesus’ sacrifice and True Mother’s selflessness for the will of Heavenly Parents. - Emphasis on building peace from within, starting with the individual and family before expanding outward. - The unique blessing of liberation from original sin and the concept of one family under God. - Leading by example as the most effective way to inspire a God-centered life. - The principle that earthly actions bind or loosen spiritual consequences, urging a life without regrets.

Sunday School: Moral lesson from Korean folk tale Heungbu and Nolbu

 

This presentation retells the Korean folktale “Heungbu and Nolbu” to teach a lesson about kindness.

It introduces two brothers: Heungbu, who is kind and helpful, and Nolbu, who is greedy and unkind.

Heungbu finds an injured bird and helps it, showing compassion.

Later, Heungbu receives a reward in the form of magical pumpkins that bring good fortune.

Nolbu tries to copy Heungbu’s actions only to get gifts, but his greed leads to trouble instead of rewards.

The main message is clear: be kind and thankful, because kind hearts lead to happier lives.

The presentation ends with a related activity: Origami Sparrow step-by-step instructions as a fun extension to the story.

Sunday School: Bible study - Parable of the Sower

This presentation introduces The Parable of the Sower as a simple story Jesus used to teach spiritual growth and life lessons, especially in a way children can understand. It explains that God’s Word is like a seed, and people’s hearts are like different types of soil that receive the seed in different ways.

The lesson walks through the four types of soil—the path, rocky ground, thorny soil, and good soil—explaining what happens to the seed in each case and what that means for faith. Each soil type is connected to a practical, child-friendly lesson about listening to God, staying strong during difficulties, avoiding distractions, and living out God’s Word daily.

The presentation emphasizes that faith grows when children listen, understand, and put God’s teachings into action. Visual slides support the lesson, helping children imagine the story and remember its meaning.

Finally, the presentation includes discussion questions and answers to help children reflect on the story. These explore what the seed and soils represent, identify modern-day distractions, and encourage kids to think about how they can become “good soil” by being kind, focused, and open to God’s help. The lesson concludes by explaining why Jesus used farming stories—because growth takes time, care, and the right conditions.
