Word of Life Church Podcast

In the launch of the 2016 series, Life’s A Beat, Pastor Joels Sims the message of patterns. You can’t change your life without changing your patterns. We explore how every frustration and success is rooted in the habits we keep, showing that it’s the small, everyday decisions, not the big moments, that truly shape our lives. From finances and health to relationships and personal growth, we’re uncovering how to identify and shift those patterns for the better. Get ready to transform your life’s rhythm and find out how changing your beat can change everything.

Join us in this episode titled “Entangled?” where Pastor Joel Sims shines a light on a tactic the enemy uses to steal your effectiveness and influence for the Kingdom of God and hinder your progress in your walk with God.

Ever feel like you have the knowledge to live a fruitful Christian life but lack the power? In this episode, titled “The Helper,” Pastor Joel Sims explores the question the Apostle Paul asked the believers at Ephesus: “Did you receive the Holy Spirit since you believed?” If you’ve been living an ordinary life, you can begin living an extraordinary one with the Helper on the inside, guiding and directing you. Discover the secret to the early church’s success and the missing ingredient in many Christians’ lives today.

In “Just Pray” from our Mother’s Day weekend, Peppi Sims highlights how our busyness can lead to toxic, deceptive thoughts dominating our minds, overshadowing God’s truth.

In this episode titled “The Wonderful Name of Jesus,” Pastor Joel Sims takes us into not just any subject, but The Name of Jesus.

Are you seeking your promised land, or are you seeking Him?
