Welcome to our messages page, where you can hear relevant, encouraging and thought provoking teaching from the truths of the Bible.

Coming Soon

Our Exodus sermon series is coming to a close and in June we will launch our summer sermon series on “Ecclesiastes: A Life Worth Living”. The book starts with the words, “Meaningless! Meaningless!” to describe humanity’s life here on Earth. While we are not able to control everything in our lives nor fully grasp God’s plan, we are called to rely on the one who can. Ecclesiastes invites us to live with open hands and faithful hearts, finding joy not in what we control, but in who we know: a good, purposeful, loving and eternal God. Join us on June 8th as the Bible teaches us about A Life Worth Living!

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.

As we conclude the Core Values sermon series, it makes sense to see where it is all going. The reality is that our values feed into and create our Mission. Our Mission drives our Vision which uses our Strategy to accomplish it, leading to the 5 Marks of (Spiritual) Maturity, that we've spoke of before. And this is all done, not as single individuals, but together, as the church.

Scripture References: Ephesians 4:15-16, Ephesians 4:25, Philippians 3:7-10, Romans 10:9-17, Ephesians 1:16-23, Ephesians 2:1-10, Ephesians 4:11-25, Philippians 1:8-18, Philippians 2:1-11, Philippians 2:12-18

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.

Due to an unexpected illness, Pastor Ron was unable to give the message. Instead we heard from two of our Elders. Dan Carlson gave an update on the Pastoral Search Team Process and Quintin Legler spoke to GREFC's vision and strategy.

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!
