Andre and Nola Vink, along with their son Jarrvis, were baptized today. Praise the Lord. Their family is new to Hillside and we have so enjoyed them and their three boys. We look forward to worshiping and growing with them in Christ.

The Good Shepherd
In Children’s Church today they used Shaving Cream to make some messy sheep.. Sometimes the Good Shepherd has some messy sheep, but he still loves and cares for us.
It’s Time We Talked
How many of us talk about our relationship with God at work? At home? Why are we so afraid to talk about God? If we truly love him and are grateful for the things he does for us, why are we not talking about this? If we know God and he knows us, if heContinue reading “It’s Time We Talked”
The Hope of Easter
It’s been a long couple of days. You are tired. Emotionally drained. Confused. Your best friend just went through unspeakable torture and now lays in a grave. This man you devoted your life to. Three years you have walked every day together. You have learned from him. You have seen miracle after miracle. You haveContinue reading “The Hope of Easter”
Man of Sorrows
As Easter approaches, my mind starts thinking about the importance of the cross. About just how important the death and resurrection of Jesus really is. I think about all the scriptures that point to a God who stepped out of Heaven, walked a perfect life, and gave his life in our place. It’s our debtContinue reading “Man of Sorrows”
Thankful

There are many movies I can quote, and a lot of movies I have seen WAY tooContinue reading “Can You Spot A Sharp Fanged Sheep?”
No Fear, No Anxiety, Trust God
I don’t spend a lot of time on social media anymore. I used to be on it all the time. It was a great way to waste time and see what was going on in the world around me. Unfortunately, it wasn’t good for my mood, my blood pressure, or my anger issues. Just scrollContinue reading “No Fear, No Anxiety, Trust God”
Jesus Stayed
What is your reaction when God says no? What is your reaction when God says wait? For many, myself included, its not taken very well. We seem to think we know what is best for us. We seem to think that we are more important than God, and our demands need to be met inContinue reading “Jesus Stayed”
The Parable of the Talents
I don’t think many know that I am discipling a couple of younger men to be youth ministers at my church. I have turned over the keys to my ministry, Burning Hearts to a couple of amazing young men. I am teaching them to teach others. It is at times cringe worthy and at otherContinue reading “The Parable of the Talents”
