A LITTLE ABOUT
SUNHILLS CHURCH
We are invited by Jesus to live IN God’s love and live OUT God’s love!
“LOVE – real simple, it’s about love. We were made to receive and give love. That’s when life is at it’s best, right? Honestly, who would disagree? We believe this is true because God made us from love, for love and to love. God is love! And this is good news because God, in Jesus, invites us to orient our whole lives around living in God’s love and living out God’s love (see below). Love – that’s what we’re about; it’s what we want for you; and it’s what we’re inviting you to join us in.
“As the Father has loved me, I have loved you. Live in my love.” – Jesus
“This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.” – Jesus
