in Liturgy & Sermons

Welcome to Sojourn’s weekly worship music set list review & service recap. You’ll not only read a list of the songs we led, but also the readings and prayers from our liturgy. You can also watch the video stream of the whole service from our Facebook page, or here below (you’ll also see a higher resolution video of the sermon alone).

Our liturgy is written by Worship Director Justin Shaffer, in collaboration with our Creative Team at Sojourn Church New Albany and worship staff at the other four Sojourn Collective churches in the Louisville area.

This Sunday, we featured a marriage Q&A with Pastor Lachlan Coffey and his wife Terri, to conclude our series Bliss Or Miss: Marriage In God’s Kingdom. To learn more about Sojourn Church, click here.

Woke Up This Mornin’ (With My My Stayed on Jesus)

CALL TO WORSHIP

…we rally around Jesus!

9 God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him. 10 This is real love—not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins.                      -1 John 4:9-10 NLT

Spoken

Great Are You Lord 

CONFESSION

Spoken

4 Don’t sin by letting anger control you.

Think about it overnight and remain silent.

Interlude – A moment of silence

5 Offer sacrifices in the right spirit,

and trust the Lord.                                                                                             -Psalm 4:4-5 NLT

Spoken

I Have to Believe       

ASSURANCE & GIVING

Spoken

6 Many people say, “Who will show us better times?”

Let your face smile on us, Lord.

7 You have given me greater joy

than those who have abundant harvests of grain and new wine.

8 In peace I will lie down and sleep,

for you alone, O Lord, will keep me safe.                                                         -Psalm 4:6-8 NLT

Spoken

Refuge        

PEACE

Spoken

11 Dear friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each other. 12 No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is brought to full expression in us.                                                                                         -1 John 4:11-12 NLT

Spoken

[Sermon]

[Communion]

Bind Us Together

ANNOUNCEMENTS           

Build My Life       

BENEDICTION

May our dependably steady and warmly personal God develop maturity in you so that you get along with each other as well as Jesus gets along with us all. Then we’ll be a choir—not our voices only, but our very lives singing in harmony in a stunning anthem to the God and Father of our Master Jesus! [Go in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Peace be with you!]                                                                                                  -Romans 15:5-6
