Sojourn Community Church

The name “TravelBlog” is a play on the name of our church family: Sojourn Community Church.

A sojourn is a trek, a quest. A journey from bondage to freedom, from darkness to light, made possible by the grace of God through His Son, Jesus Christ. Like the ancient children of Israel, like the writers of the Gospels, Acts and the epistles, we tell the story of God's work in our lives while we travel.

Getting Ready For Sunday: How To Prepare For Sojourn Gathered, August 1, 2010

This week our pastor will begin a short series on Paul’s Epistle to the Colossians.  The sermon will focus on “The Christ Hymn,” (Colossians 1:15-20) a hymn fragment of the early church that Paul quotes in his letter.  This scripture shows the role of Jesus in:

  • Creation
  • Redemption
  • Reconciliation

If you missed the preview video for this series, you can watch it here.

Also, you can pick up the free August Sojourn devotional this Sunday, which follows Colossians and Paul’s letters to the Thessalonian church.  We’ll make it available as a digital PDF download here at sojournchurch.com as well, under the main “Resource” tab in the top right of the page.  From the devotional:

Paul wrote Colossians to a church about the same age as Sojourn. The church faced a philosophy that claimed Jesus was not enough to mature in the Christian faith.

God’s Word for the Colossians is God’s Word for Sojourn.  Come prepared to learn about it at Sojourn Gathered.

Songs we’ll sing this Sunday include:

  1. The Christ Hymn (Midtown morning services only).  Hear singer-songwriter Rebecca Dennison talk about how she and Pastor Mike Cosper arranged the text and wrote new music for it, and then hear the song in its entirety at this link or the Inside Sojourn iTunes podcast.
  2. I Boast No More (hear a preview from singer-songwriter Sandra McCracken at Last.fm)

See you Sunday.

About Bobby Gilles Bobby Gilles is Director of Communications for Sojourn Community Church, author of “Our Home Is Like A Little Church” and worship songs such as “Lead Us Back” and “Warrior.”
