What Does God Want?

Why does the Bible show polygamy in some stories but still call us to faithfulness in marriage?

What do we do with the tension between God’s ideal and what He sometimes allowed? This week we’ll wrestle with these questions and discover what God really wants for our relationships.

Love First

God invites us to live in harmony by showing respect, even to imperfect authorities, while keeping our ultimate loyalty to Him. When faced with injustice, Scripture calls us to respond not with revenge, but with courage rooted in love—love that seeks peace, justice, and the good of others.

Great Question! 2025 - Are Heaven and Hell Real?

During WholeLife Church’s annual ‘Great Question!’ Series, Lead Pastor Ken Wetmore is given a question submitted by one of our members with only a week to prepare his answer. This week’s question launches the 2025 Great Question! series and does not disappoint:

Great Question 1: The Old Testament doesn't say much about an afterlife beyond the grave. A vague mention of the dead coming back to life appears in Isaiah 26:19, and Daniel 12:2 speaks of resurrection and judgment. In contrast, the New Testament describes heaven and hell as real, specific places. Since most of the Old Testament lacks clear ideas of life after death—and since by the time the New Testament was written, Jewish thought had been influenced by other religions like Zoroastrianism and by Greek philosophy—should we understand heaven and hell as actual places, or as theological concepts shaped by these influences?

Speak Life - Aubrey Toup

Every day we use words to communicate. Information is passed, processed, and refined, only to be passed on again. But, what does ‘what we say’ actually say about us, about Christians, and our walk with God? Are we taking the time to speak life into those in our care and in our world, or faced with the regret and the pain of words we can’t take back?
