Welcome to our messages page, where you can hear relevant, encouraging and thought provoking teaching from the truths of the Bible.

Our Current Sermon Series

While history has traditionally seen Acts simply as stories about the Apostles – we now see the book is so much more. It is certainly an account of the eleven disciples after Jesus is raised from the dead, but even more so, it is an account of the early Christians: an account of the Holy spirit, an account of the early church, and most significantly, the account of the continued work of Jesus Christ and God Himself, bringing His living witness to the ends of the Earth through His people. So, come join us this year as we  explore how the Gospel of Christ first changed the world, and as we ourselves learn what it means to let that same gospel change our lives and our world, even today.

Live-streamed online at 9:00 am on Sundays

Micah Labovitch - January 4, 2026

Impartial Witnesses (Acts 10:1-48)

Acts: The Living Witness of Jesus
  • Watch
  • Listen

Join us as we start the new year continuing our series in the book of Acts. “Impartial Witnesses” explores Acts 10:1–48, showing that God calls His people to share the gospel without favoritism. Through God’s revelation to Peter and Cornelius, Peter’s bold proclamation of Christ, and the Holy Spirit’s outpouring on the Gentiles, this message affirms that salvation is for all and challenges believers to welcome and disciple new brothers and sisters while listening daily for God’s voice in His inclusive mission.

Scripture References: Acts 10:1-48, Isaiah 56:1-8

Our Vision

Faith is a Journey

You never really “arrive” at becoming a mature disciple maker. We are all called to continually grow deeper in our relationship with Jesus, to grow in love for others, to get better at blessing those around us and to increasingly share the love of Jesus with everyone. At GREFC we realize this through four key areas: Connect, Equip, Serve & Go!
