General Info

Located In Lone Tree, Colo., Word of Life Christian Center has a rich Holy Ghost heritage of ministry in the Denver area. In 1970, Pastor Tim Bagwell’s father, the late Reverend H.R. Bagwell, began pastoring Faith Temple, which resided on the corner of 11th and Acoma Street in Denver. This church grew significantly with several hundred in attendance. Faith Temple was known around the city for the signs, wonders and healings that permeated its services. In 1981, Rev. H.R. Bagwell relocated the ministry. Several years later, after pastoring and leading thousands to Jesus during his 55 years of ministry, Reverend Bagwell retired. It was at this point that he called his son, Tim Bagwell, and asked him to succeed him as the senior pastor. Pastor Bagwell, who was currently the senior pastor of the largest non-denominational church in Kokomo, Indiana, was confronted with an enormous decision. After considerable prayer, the Bagwell family relocated to Denver in 1985. Under new leadership, the church was renamed Word of Life. In less than five years, Word of Life grew and was in desperate need of an enlarged facility to prevent stagnation. Pastor Bagwell began the search for a new building. After months of searching, in June of 1990, through a miraculous set of circumstances, Pastor Bagwell found a new home and the congregation relocated to the corner of Dry Creek and South Clarkson Street. The next ten years produced great growth, favor, and supernatural outpouring of the Holy Spirit. During this season, the reputation of Word of Life Christian Center as a church that proclaimed and demonstrated the love and power of God became known throughout the city. Word of Life Christian Center became a place where those who were hungry for the bold, uncompromising Word to be spoken into their lives, could go. It was a place that manifested the power of the Holy Ghost with signs, wonders, miracles and a true prophetic proclamation. From 1990 - 2000, some of the greatest ministries in America blessed the people of Word of Life Christian Center. Great generals in the Spirit like Oral Roberts, Morris Cerullo, Phil Driscoll, Gary Oliver and Myles Munroe and many others deposited greatness into our church. They also began to challenge us to enlarge our vision and to take the incredible step of developing and building our new facility. The incredible sacrifice of many people became the backbone of Word of Life Christian Center’s future. Through their faithfulness, we were able to open this ministry facility on Park Meadows Drive that will equip not only this generation, but also generations to come.
