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.

Matt Grose - December 4, 2022

The Venue - Bethlehem

The Invitation of Advent
  • Watch
  • Listen

The little town of Bethlehem sets the stage for one of the most incredible events in history. God does that time and again, using the ordinary to accomplish something extremely special. If we are to be used by God to help usher in something special, it requires faith from us. God will do the rest.

Scripture References: Luke 1:26-38, Hebrews 11:1-40, Luke 2:1-17, Matthew 2:1-16, Micah 2:2-25, 1 Samuel 16:1-113

From Series: "The Invitation of Advent"

The word Advent literally means “to arrive.” It is also the time each year in Christianity meant to draw our hearts to focus on what the arrival of Jesus really means in our lives. This year, at GREFC, we are aligning our Advent services with the traditional Sundays of Advent. We will be focusing in on Jesus’ birth story in Luke 1-2 and looking at how these six Sundays all display different perspectives on Jesus’ birth. But even more than that, through the lens of these six Sundays, we are going to look at how the entire biblical story- and the whole of human history- ultimately points us to this moment: the true invitation of the Advent of Jesus Christ. So, please, join us this Christmas season as we look to and celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ together.

The Power of the Word of God
  • Watch

Calling yourself a Christian but not reading the Bible is a huge disconnect. The Word of God should not be sitting on our shelves gathering dust but, as Elder Matt Grose shows us, should be consistently read to help reveal God to us, transform us and equip us as we navigate life on earth.  Learn about God's power available to you through the Word of 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!
