    Ep 16: Ps Joey Thompson

    In this message, Ps Joey speaks honestly about fear, calling, and the times we can find ourselves pulling back from God. Using Peter’s story alongside his own testimony, he reflects on what it means to deny Jesus, to return to Him, and to step into what God has placed on your life. It’s a message about surrender, courage, and trusting that God can still work through us even when we’ve struggled. — You can connect with us further at hillside.wa.edu.au or on Instagram @hillsidechristiancollege or Facebook @hillsidechristiancollege1 — HillSide Christian College is a Christ-centred K–12 school situated in Perth, Western Australia.

    Ep 15: Staff & Student Testimonies

    This week’s episode features two powerful testimonies — one from staff member Andrew, and one from a Secondary student. Andrew shares about God’s faithfulness through a life-threatening birth condition and an unexpected job loss that led him to Hillside. Our student speaker reflects on feeling empty despite having friends and how encountering Jesus brought lasting joy and purpose. Two different stories, one consistent theme: God meets us in both the crisis and the quiet moments — and He changes lives. — You can connect with us further at hillside.wa.edu.au or on Instagram @hillsidechristiancollege or Facebook @hillsidechristiancollege1 — HillSide Christian College is a Christ-centred K–12 school situated in Perth, Western Australia.

    Ep 14: Ps Josh Thomas

    This week’s chapel message explores Hebrews 12 and the idea of an unshakable kingdom. Looking at the early followers of Jesus who were tempted to return to what felt easier, we’re reminded that building our lives on things that last matters. When everything else feels uncertain or pressured, Jesus remains steady — a foundation that cannot be shaken. — You can connect with us further at hillside.wa.edu.au or on Instagram @hillsidechristiancollege or Facebook @hillsidechristiancollege1 — HillSide Christian College is a Christ-centred K–12 school situated in Perth, Western Australia.

    Ep 13: Stephen Lamont: A Kingdom That Cannot Be Shaken

    We kick off 2026 in Chapel with a message from Principal Stephen Lamont anchored in Hebrews 12. Stephen unpacks what it means to belong to a kingdom that cannot be shaken - contrasting God’s eternal kingdom with the rise-and-fall of earthly empires. He challenges us to respond with thankfulness and worship, and gives practical encouragement for students who are still figuring out faith: read the Bible, pray honestly, connect with youth/church, and consider what it means to know the King personally. — You can connect with us further at hillside.wa.edu.au or on Instagram @hillsidechristiancollege or Facebook @hillsidechristiancollege1 — HillSide Christian College is a Christ-centred K–12 school situated in Perth, Western Australia.

    Ep 11: Luke Harris

    In this episode, guest speaker Luke Harris from CruWest unpacks the book of Ecclesiastes, where King Solomon calls life “meaningless.” Through reflection, Luke shows how Solomon’s search for wisdom points to something greater—the true rest and hope found in Jesus. When life feels heavy or unfair, Jesus invites us to come to Him and find rest for our souls. — You can connect with us further at hillside.wa.edu.au or on Instagram @hillsidechristiancollege or Facebook @hillsidechristiancollege1 — HillSide Christian College is a Christ-centred K–12 school situated in Perth, Western Australia.
