Topic: “Knowing, Trusting & Following the God Who Leads”
The God revealed in Scripture is a God who guides His people. But sometimes His leading leaves us perplexed, angry, confused. God, what in the world are you doing? Other times our problems are too thorny, our decisions too complex and our perspective too narrow for us to find our own way. God, show me your will? Give me wisdom to follow you.. Together we’ll explore the Bible’s call to walk by faith, trusting our Great Shepherd whose leading is constant.
Guest Ambassadors: CMSgt Vance and Pam Clarke, USAF (Ret.)

Sunny will be transitioning from his research at Mass General Hospital and Harvard Medical School to work full time on a tech business with his brother called “Daniel Street Group,” having the heart to serve his community through excellent work from and for His glory.
What I want to accomplish this year:
To embolden members of RMH to only fear God.
“If this be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of your hand, O king. But if not, be it known to you, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the golden image that you have set up.”

He is a graduate of the University of Tennessee College of Medicine, and was a Fellow in Hematology and Oncology at the University of Alabama Birmingham.

He and his wife, Becky have three children, six grandchildren and live in Germantown, Tennessee.

Topic: “Listening to God”

We spend so much time talking to God that we often fail to Listen. Listening is far more than silence and hearing. It involves that at times, but most of our listening is listening while we run in a crazy, busy life that God has given us. We listen to relate, listen for direction, listen for power, listen for forgiveness and much more. Dr. Weir will be sharing from his life as a physician in Christ who has been serving veterans as a Christian oncologist for the past 16 years, and from his life before. More importantly, he hopes everyone that attends will be sharing as well.

Guest Ambassadors: Dr (COL) Arnie Ahnfeldt, USA (Ret.) and Dr (COL) Jeff Ginther, USA (Ret.)
