What do you think of when you think about a "Sojourner"? If those old lyrics "this world is not my home, I'm just a passing through" are going through your head, you've got it all wrong. In the apostle Peter's first letter to churches in modern day Turkey he wants them to understand that their sojourn is not to be one of avoidance or assimilation, but rather cultural transformation. But Peter recognizes that this sojourn will not be without trials and tribulations from the opposing culture.
