Everybody knows Jonah got swallowed by a fish. Fewer remember the fish is barely the point. We’ll take the whole book slowly and find a God whose love is relentless, the kind that chases a runaway prophet across the sea and keeps reaching the people he’d rather it skipped. Because Jonah doesn’t run for fear God will fail. He runs for fear God will love the wrong people, and love them anyway. Come find out how far that love is willing to go.
WHY HILLSIDE?
We are a school of love, learning to practice the teachings of Jesus together.
We build that love through worship that draws on the deepest insight of the Christian scriptures, service that puts us face to face with neighbors in need, and formation opportunities that invite you to bring your full self – doubts and all – and come to your own conclusions.
Love is the deepest truth of your life, and practicing it is how you become who you’re meant to be.
