Sunday Morning Worship

August 17 @ 10:30 am - 11:30 am

Feel the love every Sunday at 10:30am!

Looking for a church that takes faith seriously but not literally? A place where you can breathe, question, laugh, and maybe even find meaning in the chaos? You’re invited to worship with Hillside Community Church – a progressive, inclusive Christian community where curiosity is holy, compassion is central, and nobody pretends to have it all together.

Expect thoughtful messages, good music, real talk, and a community that actually cares. We blend old and new – ancient wisdom and modern vibes – in a laid-back, come-as-you-are environment. Bring your doubts. Bring your coffee. Bring your whole self.

Current Worship Series:

Rev. Tom Hathaway - November 2, 2025

To Live Is to Suffer?

What do the Buddha and the book of Job have in common? Quite a lot, it turns out. Both confront the same hard truth: life hurts, and it doesn’t always make sense. But while the Buddha finds peace in letting go of everything that changes, Job finds peace in discovering that—even in the ashes—he has not been let go of. This sermon explores those two ancient responses to suffering and what they might still teach us when the job disappears, the doctor calls with hard news, or the prayers we’ve prayed go unanswered.

Scripture References: Job 1:1-22

From Series: "The Life You Didn't Expect"

This four-week series speaks to the times in life that we find ourselves facing the unexpected. Whether a loss, layoff, divorce, or scary diagnosis, hardships can bring out tough emotions, disappointment, doubt, and cynicism. How do we trust God with the life we didn’t expect?
