What comes to mind when you visualize "home"? 

In this episode, host Ruth McDonald explores our longing for comfort, stability, and safety by working through Psalm 84. As Christians who have set our hearts on pilgrimage, we are in this world but not of it. In Biblical language, we are sojourners, pilgrims, and foreigners whose true citizenship is in heaven. 

Whatever your experience of home has been, the Bible offers real encouragement for those of us who are passing through this world. You will be blessed by this message on God's faithfulness to walk with us through every season.
