Emmanuel Sunday Talks

Matt Carvel brings our Story preaching series (going through Exodus) to a close, looking here at the theme of Purpose. Moses and the Israelites were taking God’s leading by following the cloud; not always at convenient times. In 2020, all of our plans have been changed. However, we can be confident that God’s purpose prevails and He continues to lead.

Stephen Dawson continues our Story preaching series (going through Exodus) looking at the theme of Presence. Moses and the Israelites were distraught at the prospect of entering the Promised Land without God going with them. The purpose of humanity is to glorify God and to connect with Him. He wants to presence Himself in our lives.

Joel Virgo continues our Story preaching series (going through Exodus) looking at the theme of Worship. After being rescued from slavery the Israelites create golden statues to worship as soon as Moses’ back is turned! The truth is, we worship our way out of slavery to idols. By worshipping Jesus, we purposefully make Him the object of our heart’s affection.

Matt Carvel continues our Story preaching series (going through Exodus) looking at the theme of Comfort. We are at the point in the story where the people of Israel are in the wilderness, lacking food. Many of us can fill lack in life and look to things for comfort. Ultimately, we find our comfort in Jesus Christ.

Matt Carvel continues our Story preaching series (going through Exodus) looking at the theme of Identity. At the Red Sea, God was dealing with the Israelites’ past. They hadn’t just ‘moved on’ from it, it was crushed, defeated, forgiven, wiped out forever. God established this ‘line in the sand’ so they could walk into their new identity of children of God (not ashamed children of slavery).

Joel Virgo continues our Story preaching series looking at the theme of forgiveness. This chapter of Exodus reveals to us that we’re not one of the ‘good guys’. We’re in need of Jesus’ forgiveness.

Matt Carvel continues our Story preaching series looking at the theme of deliverance. We unpack how God begins to lead us forward into change, by addressing the lies in our hearts.

Joel Virgo continues our Story preaching series looking at the theme of Silence. We understand the world and our experience as chapters in an unfolding story. The Exodus story is one of slavery to freedom and begins in a very dark place.
