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.

The Venue - Bethlehem
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.

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.

Matt Grose - January 5, 2020
The Power of the Word of God
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.
