If you like movies, you know that Oscar night is upon us.
Here at Rolling Hills, we have our own awards to make ... The Wesleys!
This award is not named for Rolling Hills' own, Wes Newcomer. No, this award is named in honor of the founders of Methodism, John and Charles Wesley. These two brothers loved their Bible, and so do we. So, over the next few weeks in Sunday school, we're going to hand out awards in various categories for our favorite passages from the Good Book.
On Sunday, March 4 we will start by naming the winner in the category of Best Psalm. During this week, please post a comment to nominate your favorite Psalm. Briefly tell us why it's meaningful to you. In Sunday school on the 4th, our judges (aka our youth) will read the nominated Psalms, consider them, and vote on the winner of the very first Wesley award. The award winner in the category of Best Psalm (and the category for the following week's Wesley award) will be announced after Sunday school on this blog.
So read your Psalms, pick a fav, and tell us about it!

The Oscars ... The Grammys ... The Tonys ... The Wesleys?
Welcome To The Rolling Hills Youth Bible Blog!
Welcome! This blog is the online presence of the Youth Sunday school class at Rolling Hills United Methodist Church. I think Jesus would have liked to blog. He liked having followers. Check out Matthew 4:18-20 (http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%204:18-20&version=TNIV). Here's what Jesus said to two fishermen, Peter and Andrew, when he met them for the first time by the Sea of Galilee:
"Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will send you out to fish for people." -Matt. 4:19 (TNIV)
"Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will send you out to fish for people." -Matt. 4:19 (TNIV)
