The Announcement - How Prophecy Points to Jesus

The Invitation of Advent
  • Watch
  • Listen

From Genesis to the first chapter of Luke and John the Baptist, the Bible prophesies the coming of the Messiah. He was to be, and is, a light in the darkness. And light is good, brining hope and guidance. But the prophesies don't end there. The entire New Testament continues to point to Jesus. Even revelation points to His coming again. Now is the time to follow the Light!

Scripture References: Luke 1:64-80, Deuteronomy 34:10-1012, Deuteronomy 18:15-22, John 1:14-18, Luke 24:44-48, Acts 2:29-36, Hebrews 3:1-11, Hebrews 4:9-13, 2 Peter 1:16-21, Revelation 22:16-21

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.

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!
