Welcome to the web archive for "The Sojourner’s Life," an expositional sermon series through the book of 1 Peter preached by the pastoral team at Crossroads International Church.
Addressing believers navigating a culture often indifferent or hostile to the gospel, this series unpacks what it means to live as pilgrims and dual citizens whose ultimate home is the kingdom of God. Across these messages, the pastoral team equips believers to be firmly grounded in the living hope of their salvation, cultivate counter-cultural habits of holiness and mutual love, honor Christ through godly submission across all areas of society, and steward their time and spiritual gifts with sober-minded urgency. Rather than viewing fiery trials as strange or purposeless, Peter calls the church to face suffering with eternal perspective, entrusting their souls to a faithful Creator, following the sacrificial footsteps of Christ, and shining brightly as His living temple in the world.
