GENERATION WORD
  • Identification
  • Generation Word is a local Bible teaching
    ministry that is internationally communicating
    the Word of God through books, cds and the
    internet.
  •  
  • Purpose
  • Generation Word is focused on communicating the
    Word of God to the people of this
    generation. Our goal is to stimulate spiritual
    growth and assist believers in attaining
    maturity in order that they might live
    fruitful lives in Jesus Christ.
  •  
  • Ministry
  • Generation Word teaches the Bible verse by verse
    in its historical setting and draws meaning out
    of the original languages. We categorically
    organize and compare each verse with the rest
    of scripture to form a unified theology that
    applies to our lives and our nation today.
  •  
  • The Teacher
  • Galyn Wiemers is the founder and teacher of
    Generation Word Bible Teaching Ministry. He
    began teaching the Bible in 1986, has
    served as a pastor for 14 years and has
    taught over 1,000 classes or sermons for
    Generation Word since it began in 2002. Galyn

  • Who is Galyn Wiemers?
  • Galyn and his wife Toni began Generation Word
    Bible Teaching Ministry in their living room in

    at seminars and Bible college. In 2002 Galyn
    began Generation Word as a ministry to reach our
    nation with the Word of God. Galyns Bible
    teaching has now reached every state and is also
