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!

It makes no sense to know someone really well but have no response to them in your life. God doesn't want people to simply know about Him. He longs for us to pour out our hearts to Him, to trust Him, to Praise Him, to come to Him for wisdom and direction, to serve Him, to remember His faithfulness in the past and to look forward to what He will do in the future. And no biblical book captures all the wide range of responses to God like the book of Psalms.

Scripture References: Psalms 1:1-6, Psalms 2:1-12, Psalms 62:1-12, Psalms 77:1-20, Psalms 40:1-17, Psalms 136:1-26, Psalms 117:1-2, John 8:31

From Series: "Core Values"

Just as the roots of a massive tree create the foundation of and provide the life-giving force for the whole organism, a church’s core values undergird everything it does. Our values guide us as we seek to share the Gospel with a hurting world, as we make disciples who look more and more like Jesus, and as we bless and love others, growing the Kingdom of God in our community. We’ll hear from each of our Elders as they share what each of our Core Values mean to them.

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!
