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 // Holding Fast to the Truth - Matt Carvel // Philippians 2:12-18
In this sermon, Matt Carvel explores what it means to hold fast to the truth of Jesus in a post-truth culture. Drawing from Philippians 2:12-18, he challenges us to stop defining our own “truth” and instead receive God’s truth through His Word, living as children of God who shine as lights in a crooked and twisted generation. It’s a call to depend daily on Jesus, reject grumbling, and root our lives in the gospel that brings freedom and joy.
