Welcome to our messages page, where you can hear relevant, encouraging and thought provoking teaching from the truths of the Bible.
Current Sermon Series
As we finished our sermon series in Ezra and Nehemiah, you may have gotten a sense that the story was still… incomplete. The Lord restored His remnant people and rebuilt His kingdom, but the old patterns of sin and rebellion returned all over again. And for 400 years, God’s people cried out, waiting for the King of the Kingdom to come. Well, in the Gospel of Matthew, the answer finally comes. We encounter at last the good news of the arrival of the long-anticipated king. And his name is Jesus. The books of Ezra and Nehemiah long for the Savior King; the Psalms resonate with the Savior King; and, as we saw at Advent, the whole bible ultimately points to this Savior King: Jesus Christ. But who is King Jesus? What did He say? And how can we know Him even now? Join us this Spring, Summer, and Fall as we meet King Jesus face-to-face in the Gospel of Matthew, seeking to truly experience personally the Good News of King Jesus together.

Last Sunday’s Message
Ken Abramson - December 8, 2019
A Vision for the Kingdom
Living with a Kingdom mindset means looking beyond those in your "orbit," and instead it challenges us to go beyond those we're most comfortable with and leaving a legacy of spiritual generations behind us.
Scripture References: Matthew 16:13-19, 2 Timothy 2:1-2, Deuteronomy 6:1-2, Deuteronomy 5:8-9, Matthew 28:19-20
From Series: "Together Living with Purpose"
Every church is not meant to be the same nor stay the same as it was. We all have at our core the same message, but how we share that message is unique and changes as the world changes around us. God calls each church to be unique so that we may reach the widest variety of people with the message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The church leaders have been meeting for several months to seek God's guidance about what He wants Grand Rapids Evangelical Free Church to be. Out of those meetings, the leadership has developed a revised vision statement for our church that spells out how GREFC is unique among area churches in how it will reach people for Jesus Christ. This sermon series details our revised vision statement, what it means and why we believe its the right path for us. Join us as we delve into Together, Living With Purpose.
