Why Church?

Pastor Vern Peltz
Mar 6, 2016

This is a question that did not come up very much at the beginning of my ministry. But in recent years, it has been coming to me a lot. Why Go to Church? That question comes out of a lack of understanding as to what the church is all about. Pastor tries to give some insight on that question in this message.

Pastor Vern Peltz
Mar 13, 2016

Authority and Submission

Pastor Vern Peltz
May 1, 2016

Authority and Submission is a very misunderstood subject in the church. The main reason for that is because it is rarely talked about. Yet for any organization to flow smoothly, these principles must be understood. There is also a lot of abuse in the church when these principles are not understood. You will find this topic very interesting.

Communication

Pastor Vern Peltz
Jun 5, 2016

Knowing how to communicate, and then doing it solves so many relational issues - including in the church. The leadership at Word of Life place a heavy emphasis on communication. We want peace and unity at Word of Life. It all begins with communication.

Division & Disunity

Pastor Vern Peltz
Jul 3, 2016

If Division and Disunity get a foot-hold in a church and are not dealt with, it will be the spiritual death of the church. They are the only tool the Kingdom of Darkness have against the church. We will not tolerate them at Word of Life.

Identifying Wolf Activity

Pastor Vern Peltz
Jul 10, 2016

The New Testament warns us that wolves (predators) will try to get into the church. They thrive on Division and Disunity. How do we recognize a wolf? Where do they come from? This message gives key insight into this subject.

Mar 27, 2016

One of the main purposes for the churchs existence is to teach people how to worship. The concept of Worship is much different than the typical lay person thinks it is. It is much more than music and singing songs. Pastor Vern shows what the Bible says is Worship.
