This week we have a GUEST PREACHER at Sunny Hills Church, Steven Taylor from Pulaski, VA. Steven is under consideration to be our next pastor.

Please join the FACEBOOK FEED on Sunday morning the hear Steven’s message. The service begins at 10:00 am and Steven will probably be in the pulpit around 10:30.

Sunday’s Scripture is:

1 Corinthians 15:50-58, I declare to you, brothers and sisters, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. 51 Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed— 52 in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. 53 For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. 54 When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.” 55 “Where, O death, is your victory?   Where, O death, is your sting?” 56 The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. 57 But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58 Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.

2 Corinthians 2:14, “But thanks be to God, who always leads us as captives in Christ’s triumphal procession and uses us to spread the aroma of the knowledge of him everywhere.”

Closing Prayer

“Oh God, as we click away from this ‘online service’ help us to remain connected tightly to You most of all. Help my Bible reading and prayer times continue to mold me into the person You want me to be. Use me to share Your amazing love as I engage with my friends, family, and neighbors this week. In Jesus’ name, amen.”
