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.

For the 2025 Advent season, we will be continuing in Acts, focusing on Chapters 8 & 9, highlighting God’s gift to humanity through stories of the spread of the Gospel beyond Jerusalem.

The Gospel

The DNA of a Disciple

We kick off a new sermon series about the foundations of what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ. Dan Carlson, on of our elders, kicks off the series with The Gospel and what it means at it's core.

Scripture References: 1 Corinthians 15:1-8, Genesis 12:3, Malachi 3:1, Isaiah 7:14, Luke 1:30-33, Matthew 1:18-21, 1 Corinthians 15:3-11, Romans 6:23

From Series: "The DNA of a Disciple"

What does it look like to be a disciple of Jesus Christ? Often in the Christian life, we can make major errors when we slip away from the “basic foundations” of what it means to follow King Jesus. To just be His disciple. This Fall, leaders in our church will take us “under the microscope,” examining some of the core elements of what it means to be a disciple, grow as disciples, and make disciples of Jesus Christ. So we invite you to join us, explore with us, and learn with us this Fall!

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!
