Otherside Pt.3 // Presence - Matt Carvel // Exodus 26:31-35

Otherside Pt.3 // Worship - Tobi Ford-Western // Exodus 27:20-21

This sermon explores the holiness of God through the symbolism of the tabernacle and the bronze altar in Exodus. It highlights that God must be approached on His terms, not ours, and that His commands are given not to restrict us, but to draw us safely into His presence. The message points to Jesus Christ as the fulfillment of every sacrifice, altar, and ceremony in the Old Testament - the perfect Lamb of God who took our place on the cross so that sinners could be forgiven and welcomed into God’s family. Through Christ, we no longer rely on rituals or sacrifices, but have direct access to God’s presence, grace, and transforming love.

Otherside Pt.3 // Presence - Matt Carvel // Exodus 26:31-35

This sermon explores God’s desire not only to be known about, but to be personally experienced through His presence and power. Looking at the tabernacle, Pentecost, and the work of the Holy Spirit, it highlights how God’s glory once filled the tabernacle and temple, but now dwells within His people through Jesus Christ. The message encourages believers not to settle for distant faith or routine religion, but to continually seek God, expect His presence, and pursue a deeper relationship with Him - asking, like Moses, “Lord, show me Your glory.”

Otherside Pt.3 // Eden - George Benson // Exodus 26:30-37

This sermon explores how the tabernacle in Exodus points back to the Garden of Eden and forward to the hope of eternal life with God. It reveals humanity’s deep longing for “home” - a longing ultimately fulfilled not in success, comfort, or relationships, but in Jesus Christ. The message shows how God’s desire has always been to dwell with His people, and how Jesus came to bring us back into relationship with Him through the cross. Even in a restless and broken world, believers are reminded that true rest, purpose, and belonging are found in Christ alone, who promises to be with us now and bring us home forever.

Otherwise Pt.3 // Offerings - Tim Jones // Exodus 25:1-9

This sermon from Exodus 25 reveals God’s deep desire not just for worship, but for relationship - His longing to dwell among His people. Through the tabernacle, we see a powerful picture ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ, who came to “tabernacle” among us and bring us into fullness of life. The message challenges us to move beyond empty religion or duty and instead respond to God’s grace with hearts stirred by love, generosity, and joyful surrender. Because God has given everything for us in Christ, we are invited to offer our time, gifts, resources, and whole lives back to Him - not out of obligation, but as a wholehearted response to the God who first gave all.

Inspire Sunday // Fear of The Lord - Tobi Ford-Western

This sermon explores the true meaning of the fear of the Lord, showing that it is not a fear that drives us away from God, but one that draws us closer in awe, wonder, and joy. Through the story of Jesus calming the storm, it highlights how encountering God’s power and mercy leads to a deeper reverence that replaces all other fears. The message explains that when we grasp the magnitude of Jesus’ love - especially through the cross - we experience a “terrifying joy” that frees us from anxiety and brings lasting peace, calling us to trust, worship, and stand in awe of Him.
