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!

As times change, it is vitally important for the church to understand the times... not only the surrounding culture but the influence the culture has on Christianity. We need to understand what is good, better and best when it comes to pursuing God. The reality is that the family of God must keep front and center the Great Commandment and the Great Commission. If these are not central, nothing we do will last.

Scripture References: Philippians 1:9-10, John 15:5, John 17:20-23, 1 Chronicles 12:32, 2 Timothy 2:1-2, 2 Timothy 2:8

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!
