Another episode of Saint Joe Sermon Survey, where we survey sermons in Saint Joseph, MO. This episode covers Word of Life Church, pastored by Brian Zahnd. The sermons that were listened to come from the series "The Wood Between the Worlds" during the season of Lent (including Palm Sunday and Easter), 2024. They can be listened to at https://wolc.com/sermons. The purpose of the survey is to establish the ministry context of Saint Joseph and honor Titus 1:9, "holding to the faithful message as taught, so that he will be able both to encourage with sound teaching and to refute those who contradict it." Immediately below are timestamps of the topics covered in this episode, and below that are several links to other resources concerning Brian Zahnd and his teachings.
