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.

Micah Labovitch - December 14, 2025

The Gift of Salvation (Acts 9:1-22)

  • Watch
  • Listen

Though he was zealous to stamp out the newly growing Christian sect thinking he was serving God's will, Saul soon found out that he had been living for his own glory rather than God's. Then he encountered Jesus who accused Saul of persecuting Him. Saul was emptied of himself and transformed into the apostle we know today as Paul, who always proclaimed Jesus and the Gospel by any means to everyone.

Scripture References: Acts 9:1-22, Galatians 1:13-14, 1 Timothy 1:13, Acts 22:12-16, 1 Timothy 1:12-17, Isaiah 52:7-10, Luke 2:15-20

Ken Abramson - September 13, 2020

Understanding That Leads to Change

Understanding That Leads to Change
  • Watch
  • Listen

As times change, it is vitally important for the church to understand the times... not only the surrounding culture but the influence the culture has on Christianity. We need to understand what is good, better and best when it comes to pursuing God. The reality is that the family of God must keep front and center the Great Commandment and the Great Commission. If these are not central, nothing we do will last.

Scripture References: Philippians 1:9-10, John 15:5, John 17:20-23, 1 Chronicles 12:32, 2 Timothy 2:1-2, 2 Timothy 2:8

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!
