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.

Ron Weller - March 13, 2022

What Treasuring Christ Produces: Part 1

What Treasuring Christ Produces: Part 1
  • Watch
  • Listen

Paul is exhorting the church at Philippi to be wary of false teaching and "extras" added on to the Gospel that try to say that we can somehow earn our way into heaven through our own moral acts. Churches are to defend the truth of scripture so that we can have confidence that Jesus did it all and we are to put no confidence in our own abilities or righteousness.

Scripture References: Philippians 3:1-11

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!
