Can I play folk and worship music on either guitar?

Which is better for a beginner with no prior experience?
The GA10 suits younger or smaller beginners thanks to its manageable half-size body and nylon strings, which are easier on developing hands. The PF15WC is better for older teens and adults seeking standard dreadnought dimensions and steel-string technique.
What materials and tonal differences should I expect?

The PF15WC has a spruce top with mahogany back and sides and rosewood fretboard for a warm, balanced tone with greater dreadnought projection and projection suited to acoustic ensembles.
