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 - January 11, 2026

Controversial Witnesses (Acts 11:1-18)

Acts: The Living Witness of Jesus
  • Watch
  • Listen

God gives us gifts to draw us to Him. And many times the gift for someone else, is you. In today's message we hear how the Gospel is spread further and further, through kind acts of simple followers ready and able to simply talk about Jesus. God calls us to reach people because HE is reaching people and wants to use us to do it.

Scripture References: Acts 11:1-18, Acts 10:44-48

Micah Labovitch - October 15, 2023

Behold and Listen to the Servant King

The Gospel of Matthew: Will You Believe King Jesus?
  • Watch
  • Listen

Again in today's scripture Jesus tells his disciples what is going to happen to him and they miss it. They are more concerned with themselves than with what will happen to Jesus. So when they agree that they can fully follow Him in all that he does, they don't understand what that really means. Let us not be that way!

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!
