Hillside Covenant Church

Just before I got married my mom and I took a two-week trip to Italy. Before getting off the train in Florence, she said: "These old European cities are beautiful, but some Americans have to adjust to see that beauty.

Ever had the unnerving experience of peering upon someone while thinking that you were anonymous and then realizing to your surprise that the person was peering back? That's sort of the experience of reading Col. 1:21-23, the passage we're studying this Sunday in Part 4 of our Colossians 1-2 message series called "His World."

If you and your best friend were to take a road trip to New Mexico and then begin to hike around the Sangre de Cristo mountains for long enough, you might stumble upon an 11-story sandstone pyramid jutting up from a lonely mesa. What is it? Who built it? And what does it have to do with the "Christ-Hymn" of Colossians 1:15-20? Join us for week 3 of "His World," our spring message series from Colos...

Although for many of us Moby Dick was not the “high water” mark of our reading history, in chapter 60 of his classic (and often excruciating) novel, Herman Melville lands his “harpoon” right in the heart of a huge human dilemma. Join us this Easter for a message from Psalm 16 that explores how the resurrection of Jesus solves the “whale line dilemma.” Looking forward to celebrating the risen King...
