Welcome

Message from Pastor Joe & Sheryl

Welcome! We are the founding pastors of Spirit And Life Word Ministries Our passion is to help The Church get ready for the return of the Lord Jesus Christ.

We know the way to prepare our hearts for Jesus is to know who He is. We get to know Him by knowing His Word and developing an intimate relationship with The Holy Spirit daily.

In the book of Matthew, Chapter 25 Jesus teaches about ten virgins. Five were wise and five were foolish. The wise virgins were prepared for the coming Bridegroom. They had their lamps filled with oil to light their way and they had purchased extra oil so they wouldn’t run out. God’s Word is a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path (Psalm119: 105). The foolish virgins ran out of oil, and they were not prepared for the Bridegroom. They asked the wise virgins to share their oil, but everyone must acquire the oil for themselves.

Oil is a symbol of the Holy Spirit and the anointing. We obtain the oil by cultivating intimacy with Jesus Christ and The Holy Spirit. This is a personal relationship that each one of us must pursue for ourselves. Nobody can do it for us.

Christians are called to live a dynamic life filled with daily encounters with God. Jesus came to provide an abundant life full of his supernatural power, peace and joy. We know that Jesus Christ is The Word made flesh and the words He speaks to us are Spirit And Life.
