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

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.

Last Sunday’s Message

Micah Labovitch - August 4, 2024

We Value that God Gives Us Rest in Jesus

Watch
Listen

Our 3rd Core Value is the Gospel. No matter how hard we try to save ourselves, we recognize our deep need for rest and redemption that are found only in Jesus Christ. He is the better savior and sacrifice, and the only one who offers unwavering hope and fulfilled promises.

Scripture References: Hebrews 12:22-29, Hebrews 3:7-13, Hebrews 10:10-25, Hebrews 5:1-5, Hebrews 4:11-16, Hebrews 3:3-6, Hebrews 1:1-4, Hebrews 9:15-22

From Series: "Core Values"

Just as the roots of a massive tree create the foundation of and provide the life-giving force for the whole organism, a church’s core values undergird everything it does. Our values guide us as we seek to share the Gospel with a hurting world, as we make disciples who look more and more like Jesus, and as we bless and love others, growing the Kingdom of God in our community. We’ll hear from each of our Elders as they share what each of our Core Values mean to them.

The Entourage - How Angels Proclaim the Glory of Jesus

Watch
Listen

There is much we don't know about angels but we do know that these messengers worship God and obey His Word. These fellow servants were waiting in eager anticipation for Jesus to come and redeem us. They care for us because God cares.

Scripture References: Psalms 104:4, Luke 15:8-10, Luke 2:8-14, Psalms 103:20, Matthew 24:29-31, Revelation 7:9-12, Psalms 78:49, Mark 13:24-26, Hebrews 2:1-4, Nehemiah 9:6-8, Mark 8:38, Hebrews 1:14, 2 Kings 6:15-17, Mark 1:12-13, 1 Peter 1:12, Genesis 32:1-2, Psalms 148:1-2, Matthew 24:36-44, Genesis 28:10-22

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.
