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.

In this final sermon of the series, Pastor Ken Abramson defines two groups of people based on Mark 6 where the disciples are rowing across the lake when Jesus joins them. After the miracle of feeding the 5,000, it was evident that there was the crowd, who followed Jesus for the benefits but went home each night. Then there were the disciples who obeyed Jesus, even when he told them to row into a strong headwind in the middle of the night. Which kind of follower are you?

Having the spiritual posture of humility is a prerequisite to rightly relating to God. Yet the American church is far from humble. We will only gain humility when we understand God's majestic greatness compared to our own lives. Pastor Ken Abramson launches a new sermon series that will challenge you to see humility as the way to draw closer to God.

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!
