Our Next Sermon Series
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.

Last Sunday’s Message
Dan Carlson - October 16, 2022
What Does God Restore?
Through the story of Peter we learn what it means to be restored to Jesus. Peter, a brash and impulsive man who prided himself on his devotion to Jesus, found himself denying Christ in His time of need, leading to a break in their relationship. Our sermon today looks at what happens after Jesus has risen. Jesus is uncomfortably pressing Peter with the question, "Do you love me?" While true restoration with Jesus does bring about joy and peace, those are not His ultimate goals for us. Rather His highest purpose for us is a loving, abiding relationship with Himself.
