God
We believe there is one God who has always existed and has revealed Himself through the Scriptures as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, so we can know Him and live in relationship with Him.
At Sunnyview, we place the highest priority on Jesus. He is God, and we invite all people to join us in relationship with Him as we embrace the life only He can give.
John 14:6-7, Philippians 2:5-11, Colossians 1:15-23, 2 Corinthians 5:16-21, 13:14
God’s Love
We believe in God’s extravagant, ever-reaching, and unwavering love for people.
At Sunnyview, we strive to follow the example of Jesus’ love as the basis of all relationships: first through obedience to God and second, through acts of service to one another.
John 3:16-17, Romans 5:8, 1 John 3:11-18, Deuteronomy 6:4-25
God’s Glory
We believe that people are God’s creation and each person has the capacity to glorify God. Therefore, God has gifted people with talents and abilities, intended not for our own glory, but for His.
At Sunnyview, we share our talents within the church by utilizing individual’s talents and abilities to glorify God and consequently build up the church.
2 Corinthians 3:7-18, Ephesians 4:11-16, Titus 3:3-7, 2 Peter 1:19-21
Scripture
We believe that Scripture is God’s recorded and complete revelation to all people. God’s eternal message is truth, it is timeless, and it is active.
Through His Word, God has given us a message of life in relationship to Him; so that we can embrace the message, study the message, and live in that relationship.
Hebrews 4:12-13, James 1:16-18, Isaiah 55:1-13
Message
We believe: Jesus really lived, that He really died on the cross, that He really rose again on the third day, and that He will one day return.
At Sunnyview, we will not compromise or distort this message of Jesus because it is the good news and the power of God that continues to impact lives today.
Luke 24:44-48, Romans 1:16-17, Hebrews 13:8
Christian Growth and Maturity
We believe that where you are going matters more than where you have been.
At Sunnyview, we focus on God’s ultimate redemptive power so that His love, His grace, and His faithfulness take form in our lives. Therefore, we will not display a “self-righteous attitude” toward anyone.
John 15:2, James 1:12, 1 Peter 1:3-9, 2:4-5, 1 John 1:9, Luke 6:37-42, Romans 2:1-4
Mission
We believe God has actively shown His love to the Church so that we can actively extend His love to those outside of the church.
At Sunnyview, we continue the mission of introducing people to Jesus and encouraging them to grow in relationship with Him.
Matthew 28:18-20, 2 Corinthians 5:16-21, Ephesians 4:1-16
