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.

Micah Labovitch - December 18, 2022

The Entourage - How Angels Proclaim the Glory of Jesus

The Invitation of Advent
  • Watch
  • Listen

There is much we don't know about angels but we do know that these messengers worship God and obey His Word. These fellow servants were waiting in eager anticipation for Jesus to come and redeem us. They care for us because God cares.

Scripture References: Psalms 104:4, Luke 15:8-10, Luke 2:8-14, Psalms 103:20, Matthew 24:29-31, Revelation 7:9-12, Psalms 78:49, Mark 13:24-26, Hebrews 2:1-4, Nehemiah 9:6-8, Mark 8:38, Hebrews 1:14, 2 Kings 6:15-17, Mark 1:12-13, 1 Peter 1:12, Genesis 32:1-2, Psalms 148:1-2, Matthew 24:36-44, Genesis 28:10-22

From Series: "The Invitation of Advent"

The word Advent literally means “to arrive.” It is also the time each year in Christianity meant to draw our hearts to focus on what the arrival of Jesus really means in our lives. This year, at GREFC, we are aligning our Advent services with the traditional Sundays of Advent. We will be focusing in on Jesus’ birth story in Luke 1-2 and looking at how these six Sundays all display different perspectives on Jesus’ birth. But even more than that, through the lens of these six Sundays, we are going to look at how the entire biblical story- and the whole of human history- ultimately points us to this moment: the true invitation of the Advent of Jesus Christ. So, please, join us this Christmas season as we look to and celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ together.

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!
