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
The book of Ecclesiastes starts with the words, “Meaningless! Meaningless!” to describe humanity’s life here on Earth. While we are not able to control everything in our lives nor fully grasp God’s plan, we are called to rely on the one who can. Ecclesiastes invites us to live with open hands and faithful hearts, finding joy not in what we control, but in who we know: a good, purposeful, loving and eternal God. Join us on June 8th as the Bible teaches us about A Life Worth Living!

Last Sunday’s Message
Ken Abramson - October 27, 2019
A New Commandment to Love
Continuing in our vision series, "Together, Living with Purpose," Pastor Ken Abramson unpacks the first bullet point of our vision statement, "Building a community that loves one another deeply."
Scripture References: John 13:33
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.
