New Series: Journey


Everyone probably remembers the 70's - 80's rock band "Journey." Their song, "Don't Stop Believing" is the number one downloaded song of all time on iTunes. For the next four weeks, we are going to use four of the band's greatest hits as backdrops to a new series called Journey.

The word journey- is defined as traveling from one place to another, usually taking a rather long time, or a passage or progress from one stage to another: the journey to success.
You may not know it, but you are on a journey. And your journey is taking you to a particular destination. Do you know where you’re going? And equally important, do you know where you
are going to end up?
I Peter 1:18-21 (msg) says: Your life is a journey you must travel with a deep consciousness of God. It cost God plenty to get you out of that dead-end, empty-headed life you grew up in. He paid with Christ's sacred blood, you know. He died like an unblemished, sacrificial lamb. And this was no afterthought. Even though it has only lately—at the end of the ages—become public knowledge, God always knew he was going to do this for you. It's because of this sacrificed Messiah, whom God then raised from the dead and glorified, that you trust God, that you know you have a future in God.
