Are you feeling homesick for the comfort of your spiritual home? The Sojourner’s Road Home is a great resource for anyone in search of a deeper encounter with God's everlasting love and the discovery of their purpose in His plans. You’ll find hope and encouragement in each day of your journey as He guides you along unforeseen paths leading to profound change within yourself and the world around you. Our sojourn takes us through a troubled land in tumultuous times, but we can find comfort in knowing we are not aimlessly wandering on the road of life. The journey has much more meaning when we realize we are heading home to the welcoming embrace of our loving Father in heaven. God is always with us, even when we feel like we are worlds away from everything and everyone we know and love. The Sojourner's Road Home is a reminder that no matter where we go or how long we stay away, we’ll always have a place to come back to, even if our earthy home as we knew it is no longer there. Take the 40-day journey. Your sojourn here will never be the same.

The Sojourners Plight explores the historical yet contemporary universal issue of religious conflict and violence. Michael, Uche, and Tunde are three friends from the Southern, Eastern, and Western parts of Nigeria respectively. Believing in unity and peaceful co-existence amongst tribes and religions, the basis upon which the country was forged, they settle down and start up their families in Gerinlafiaa town in the Muslim-populated Northern Nigeria. For a while, things go on well with them until a Jihad breaks out and spreads through the North like wildfire. The thirst for Christian blood soon reaches Gerinlafia. And so in a town whose name denotes peace, brute violence is unleashed. Christians and non-northerners are brutally murdered for no reason save the faith they profess. The three friends are not spared as they all lose everything. Two of them survive, and one returns with vengeance in his heart. He is hell-bent on settling a score, on making his Northern brothers feel the indelible pains their actions have seared into his heartpains that the passage of time can never heal.

A collection of short stories about unresolved human dilemmaas.
