This Sunday we were joined by Matt Carvel who preached on Ephesians 4:4-16, part of The Truth series, where we explore the importance of truth in our personal lives and within the church community. Drawing from Ephesians 4, Matt emphasizes that “speaking the truth in love” is essential for building a healthy, Christ-centered church. He challenges listeners to live with honesty and integrity, to use words that build up rather than tear down, and to encourage one another in faith. Through truth, confession, and encouragement, the church grows together in unity and maturity, reflecting Jesus - who is Himself the Truth - to the world.

Otherside Pt.2 // Slaves - Matt Carvel // Exodus 21:1-11
In this sermon, Matt Carvel tackles the accusation that the Bible condones slavery by unpacking Exodus 21. He explains that the passage describes a form of voluntary servitude meant to protect the vulnerable, not oppressive slavery as we understand it today. These laws were compassionate provisions in a broken world, pointing to a deeper spiritual truth: through Jesus, we are set free from sin and made children of God. Matt also critiques modern society’s focus on individual rights, warning that without a foundation in God, human value is easily lost. Ultimately, true freedom is found only in Christ.
