We would love to meet you!

We are Hillside

We are a community of faith committed to following the teachings of Jesus Christ in a way that is inclusive, compassionate, and transformative. We believe that all people are made in the image of God and that diversity is a gift from the Creator. As a progressive Christian church, we seek to engage with the world around us, working for justice and equality for all people.

The Power of the Bible

We affirm the divine inspiration, truthfulness and authority of both Old and New Testament Scriptures in their entirety as the only written word of God, without error in all that it affirms, and the only infallible rule of faith and practice. We also affirm the power of God’s word to accomplish his purpose of salvation. The message of the Bible is addressed to all men and women. For God’s revelation in Christ and in Scripture is unchangeable.
