This message explores Jesus’ call to worship in spirit and in truth, using His encounter with the Samaritan woman at the well. It reminds us that every human being is made for worship, and that our hearts naturally drift toward false gods - identity, success, beauty, power - unless we return to the One we were created for. True worship requires both truth - knowing who God really is, and Spirit - a heart awakened by the Holy Spirit. Ultimately, we are invited back to the cross, where Jesus transforms rebels into worshipers and restores us to our deepest purpose: to glorify God and enjoy Him forever.

The Truth // Changed by the Truth - Matt Simmonds // 2 Thessalonians 2:13-17
In this message, Matt Simmonds speaks from 2 Thessalonians 2:13–17 about what it means to be changed by the truth. He challenges the idea of self-improvement and reminds us that true transformation comes only through God’s grace and the power of the Holy Spirit. We’re called to stand firm and hold fast to God’s Word, allowing His truth to shape our hearts and lives. Even when change feels slow or incomplete, God’s love, patience, and Spirit are at work - making us more like Jesus day by day.
