WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IN WORSHIP

The Gospel of Luke

The Gospel of Luke tells the story of Jesus in a way that feels surprisingly modern. It’s researched, stitched together from real voices, and honest about its own process. It centers people usually left out of religious stories: women, immigrants, the poor, the doubters, the ones on the edges. This series explores how Luke’s gospel came to be and what it says about a God who works through imperfect people, contested decisions, and messy history to bring healing, justice, and hope. You don’t need to have faith figured out to belong here. This is an invitation to explore a story that has shaped the world and still has something to say about ours.

Rev. Tom Hathaway - May 11, 2025

Survival of the Connected

What do a grove of ancient aspen trees in Utah and the early Christian church have in common? More than you might think. In this sermon, Rev. Tom explores how both Pando—a single living organism disguised as a forest—and the early church grew strong through radical connection and shared resources. Far from a feel-good fantasy, this kind of generosity was strange, even scandalous, in its time. But it was also magnetic. If you're longing for a faith community that survives not by hoarding but by holding on to one another—this one's for you.

Scripture References: Acts 2:42-47

A sweeping study of over 65 million research papers set out to understand what makes ideas take off. What it uncovered wasn’t about prestige or power, but the surprising creative force of difference.

OUR VISION

Grounded in Love

In a time of increasing partisanship and division, Hillside Community Church boldly imagines a world in which people of every race, ethnicity, socioeconomic background, gender expression, and sexual orientation can come together to meet, talk, listen, share, explore, and grow in love.

Each week, through worship that draws on the deepest insights of the Christian scriptures and through active programs of community service and outreach, the Hillside community works to build just such a world.

If you are looking to be part of an action-oriented, love-centered Christian community, we’d love to have you join us!
