In the beginning, God created all things by his word. God speaks and transforms reality. God has revealed himself to us by giving us the Word, Scripture, to show us who he is, who we are, and how we are to live in right response to him. The Word of God is “alive and active” (Heb. 4:12), gives us life (Ps. 119:25), and stands forever (Isa. 40:8). For the Christian, Scripture is the primary means by which we know God and are “transformed by the renewing of your mind (Rom. 12:2).”

It is our desire at Sunnybrook to be a people submitted to and transformed by the Word of God. In the last 50 years since our founding, the authority of Scripture has been at the heart of preaching, teaching, discipleship, membership, small groups, events, and more at Sunnybrook. We believe that engaging with God in his Word is one of the most important things we can do as his people.

That's why we are spending a Year Through the Bible. We want to celebrate all God has done to transform lives through his Word and continue to be changed by him as we
know Scripture. To that end, we invite you to commit to engaging God’s Word each day with God’s people this year. We believe that as we grow in our understanding of and submission to God in his Word, we will grow to love him and be like him more and more.

It is our prayer that you will join us this Year Through the Bible, all for God’s glory, others’ benefit, and our joy.
