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

Coming Soon

Our Exodus sermon series is coming to a close and in June we will launch our summer sermon series on “Ecclesiastes: A Life Worth Living”. The book 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!

Our Current Sermon Series

YHWH (pronounced Yah-way) is the Hebrew name for God’s personal name revealed to Moses in the book of Exodus. In fact, the book of Exodus has some of the most explicit and impacting self-revelations by God in the entire Bible. The second book of the Torah, Exodus is not just a record of God’s actions to rescue His people; It is a personal record and account of God’s person, character, and nature on full display for all the nations to see and revere Him alone. So join us this year as we dive into our study of Exodus, to see YHWH on Display, in all of His tremendous, beautiful, mysterious, and intimate glory, power, sovereignty, and love.

The church is a collection of believers called to a specific purpose, which is to bring the gospel to the nations and to love and care for other believers. All believers are part of the universal church - all believers throughout the world. We may also be a part of a local church. When we become believers, the Holy Spirit starts transforming us to look more like Jesus and also gifts us with specific traits that have a specific purpose and are to be used to build up others in the faith.

Scripture References: Romans 12:1-8, John 15:19, Ecclesiastes 4:12, 1 Corinthians 12:1-31, 1 Corinthians 13:1-13, 1 Corinthians 14:1-25, Ephesians 4:1-32

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!
