Who Are We?

Who are the churches of Christ?  The only identity we desire is to be the church that you read about in the Bible, nothing more, nothing less, and nothing else.  We are not a denomination.  Our Lord came to this earth to establish His church (Matthew 16:18), not a denomination devised and organized by man.  We diligently strive to fill our role as “the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth” (1 Timothy 3:15).

We have no headquarters anywhere in this world.  The church is the body of Christ, and He is its only head (Matthew 28:18; Ephesians 1:22-23).  We have no governing body that determines doctrine or policy for our congregations.  Rather, following the pattern laid out in the Bible, each congregation is autonomous, self-governing.  We have no creed book, manual or official statement of church doctrine.  The Bible is our only authority as to what should be believed, taught and practiced doctrinally (2 Timothy 3:16-17).

Our worship is simple, focused on expressing our adoration for God, and conforms to His will as communicated in scripture.  We meet every first day of the week to commemorate, through the Lord’s Supper, the sacrifice of Christ on the cross for our sins (Acts 20:7).  We sing praises to God a cappella (Ephesians 5:19; Colossians 3:16).  We openly study and teach God’s word (2 Timothy 4:2).  We pray for God’s guidance, wisdom, protection, forgiveness and blessings (1 Timothy 2:1; James 1:5; 5:13, 16).  We give back to God from the financial blessings with which He has blessed us (1 Corinthians 16:2; 2 Corinthians 9:6-7).

Our mission is to teach the gospel of Christ throughout the world (Mark 16:15-16).  Jesus Christ is our only savior, and there is no way to God except through Him (John 14:6).  All are guilty of sin (Romans 3:23).  The consequence of sin is spiritual death (Romans 6:23). Forgiveness and salvation await all “in Christ” (Romans 8:1).  The gospel is God’s message of salvation through Christ (Romans 1:16).

God’s plan for man’s salvation is simple and straightforward.  It is only by God’s grace through faith that we can be saved (Ephesians 2:8-9).  As a person responds to God’s offer of grace by repenting of his sin (Acts 3:19), confessing his faith in Christ (Matthew 10:32-33) and submitting to baptism “into Christ” (Romans 6:3), his sins will be cleansed by the blood shed by the Lord on the cross (Acts 22:16; Hebrews 9:27-28).  He then begins a new life of faithfulness to God (Revelation 2:10).

Our intent is to speak where the Bible speaks and remain silent where the Bible is silent, to submit to God’s will, as communicated in His word, in all matters of faith.  “The churches of Christ greet you” (Romans 16:16).
​

"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.”

Colossians 3:16

What about Sunny Slope?

The Sunny Slope church of Christ is a local congregation, located in Omaha, NE, among the churches of Christ.  We are not a part of any denomination.  We only want to be the church, on a local level, that our Lord came to this earth to establish (Matthew 16:18), the church that we all read about in the Bible, nothing more, nothing less, and nothing else.

The Bible is our only authority as to what we believe, teach, and practice doctrinally (2 Timothy 3:16-17).  We meet together on the first day of every week to partake in the Lord's Supper (Acts 20:7), study and teach God's word (2 Timothy 4:2), sing praises to His name a cappella (Ephesians 5:19; Colossians 3:16), petition Him in prayer (1 Timothy 2:1; James 5:13,16) and give back to Him from the financial blessings with which He has blessed us individually (1 Corinthians 16:2)

We meet every Sunday morning at 9:30a for Bible classes and at 10:30a for worship and every Wednesday evening at 6:30p for mid-week Bible classes.  Teaching the Bible as the authoritative word of God is emphasized at all of our regular services.

Our mission is to reach out to people in the Omaha area, across the country and around the world with the saving message of the gospel of Jesus Christ.  We want to help as many people as possible learn that there is forgiveness and salvation "in Christ" (Romans 8:1).  As a person believes that Jesus Christ is his Lord and savior (John 3:16), repents of his sin (Acts 3:19), confesses his faith in Christ (Matthew 10:32-33) and submits to baptism "into Christ" (Romans 6:3), the guilt of all of his sins will be cleansed by the blood that our Lord shed on the cross (Acts 22:16; Hebrews 9:27-28).  As one who has been born again spiritually (John 3:3,5) he can then begin to live his new life in faithfulness to God (Revelations 2:10)

At Sunny Slope, we take very seriously our mission to teach the gospel around the world.  We try to be aggressive in pursuing that mission.  We regularly, and in very focused ways, strive to communicate the gospel throughout Omaha and its surrounding communities by means of podcasting, radio, television, and various newspapers.  We are heavily involved in prison ministry, both local and in other areas.  Through this website, we offer Bible studies through the mail all across the nation and around the world, for free.  We also distribute thousands of audio lessons on CD, also free.

We take seriously our identity as the Lord's church.  Our aim is to speak where the Bible speaks, and remain silent where the Bible is silent.  You are always welcome to worship and study with us at any time.  If you ever have any questions, feel free to email us at sunnyslope@churchofchrist.com or contact us through this website.
