The King // Matt Carvel - The Vindication of The King // Matthew 28:1-10

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.

The King // The Return of The King - Tim Jones // Matthew 24:36-44

This message focuses on the return of Jesus as the coming King, drawing from Matthew 24 and reminding us that while no one knows the day or hour, we are called to live ready, awake, and full of faith. The sermon highlights that Jesus’ story is not complete without His return - when He will bring judgment, restoration, and eternal life to those who trust in Him. It encourages believers to fix their hope on His coming, live faithfully in the present, and find confidence in Christ’s finished work, knowing He is both a loving Saviour and the righteous King who is coming again.

The King // Matt Carvel - The Vindication of The King // Matthew 28:1-10

This Easter message celebrates Jesus as the true King revealed in the Gospel of Matthew - misunderstood, rejected, crucified, yet ultimately victorious through His resurrection. The sermon highlights how Jesus is not a king like the world expects, but one with ultimate authority over sin and death, who brings real freedom, peace, and forgiveness. Through His death and resurrection, He invites us into a personal relationship with Him - offering grace instead of judgment and calling us to respond in faith, worship, and trust in the risen King.

Spring Gift Campaign 2026: Youth with Maddy Plant

This Spring Gift Campaign is all about strengthening our church. In this episode, Matt is joined by Maddy Plant, who serves our Youth work across our sites. We have a team of 40+ people serving our youth week to week, and it is so rewarding to see young people grow strong in their faith, even becoming youth leaders themselves! We're raising money this gift campaign to help send them to Newday, a week long youth festival at the end of July. Transportation, Food, Marquees, and subsidising tickets means that we invest thousands of pounds into this week - but the spiritual work that God does, and building of the church is so worth it! If you'd like to take part through giving, head to weareemmanuel.com/give. And if you'd like to visit us, head to weareemmanuel.com to find the site nearest you.
