Athens Christian Church is part of a brotherhood of churches which have their origins in what has been called The Restoration Movement, The Nineteenth Century American Reformation, and The Stone-Campbell Movement. The early leaders of this movement were concerned about the lack of Christian unity among the church denominations of their time and how this disunity hindered the mandate of Jesus Christ to make disciples. But they also recognized that unity should not be obtained by compromising truth. Thus, there was an emphasis on the Bible as the sole authority in areas of doctrine and practice. "Where the Bible speaks, we speak; where the Bible is silent, we are silent," a slogan coined by Thomas Campbell, one of the early movement leaders, is an illustration of this commitment to biblical authority. It was the understanding of the early leaders of the movement that true Christian unity could only be achieved by following the practices of the early church as recorded in the New Testament, and particularly the book of Acts.
