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!

King Jesus: Condemned and Innocent

The Gospel of Matthew: Will You Love King Jesus?

Proclaiming your innocence among others does not equal repentance or true surrender before God and does not absolve you of all guilt. As Jesus is on trial before Pilot, every other player in the story, though claiming innocence, is guilty. The silent Jesus is the only one who is truly innocent.

Scripture References: Matthew 27:1-26, Jeremiah 19:1-15, Acts 2:39

From Series: "The Gospel of Matthew: Will You Love King Jesus?"

Through our study of the book of Matthew in 2023, we’ve come face to face with King Jesus. We’ve been challenged to follow Him. Challenged to Believe Him. But now as we launch into 2024 and, as the book of Matthew turns again to its final section, we each must face one final challenge in the ultimate question: Will you love King Jesus? Please, join us as we witness and respond together to our Savior King in His Passion, His death, and His resurrection!

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!
