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

While history has traditionally seen Acts simply as stories about the Apostles – we now see the book is so much more. It is certainly an account of the eleven disciples after Jesus is raised from the dead, but even more so, it is an account of the early Christians: an account of the Holy spirit, an account of the early church, and most significantly, the account of the continued work of Jesus Christ and God Himself, bringing His living witness to the ends of the Earth through His people. So, come join us this year as we  explore how the Gospel of Christ first changed the world, and as we ourselves learn what it means to let that same gospel change our lives and our world, even today.

Join us as we spend the next year learning what God has to show us in the book of Acts, starting September 14th.

Live-streamed online at 9:00 am on Sundays

Micah Labovitch - October 5, 2025

Devoted Witnesses (Acts 2:41-47)

Acts: The Living Witness of Jesus
  • Watch
  • Listen

We continue our series in the book of Acts, focusing on what it means to be devoted witnesses. Drawing from the Greek word koinonia, we hear about true fellowship—not just doing things out of obligation, but from heartfelt devotion rooted in relationship. We're challenged to examine whether our service and community involvement stem from duty or genuine love. The early church modeled caring for one another as needs arose, showing what real, committed spiritual community looks like—intentionally building relationships and meeting real needs in a way that reflects Christ’s love.

Scripture References: Acts 2:41-47

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!
