Stay awhile
in scripture.

Ask what you actually wonder, and be answered the way a wise, patient friend would: gently and rooted in scripture. Every verse opens into the passage around it, so the words become a place you can stand rather than a reference.

¶A new way

Reading, remade as conversation

Not a search box and not a feed. You bring a real question and follow wherever it leads, verse by verse, at your direction and pace.

¶It envelops you

The passage closes around you

Tap any verse and it opens with surrounding text, the whole chapter one gesture away. You do not just glance at scripture here. You follow it.

¶Exactly as written

Every verse, exactly as written

Scripture is never generated, paraphrased, or guessed. When a verse appears, it is the exact text which appears in scripture. Never approximate. Never invented.

¶Answered with care

Answered gently, and in context

It speaks the way a wise, unhurried friend does: plainly, kindly, and rooted in scripture. Ask anything, however small. You will not be rushed or persuaded.

How it feels

A question, and a place to sit with the answer.

01
Ask honestly
Say what you actually want to understand. The answer comes back calm, and always cites scripture as it goes.
02
Open the verse
Tap a citation. The passage rises up in full, and the whole chapter is one gesture further in. Go deeper by asking questions, revealing insights or putting it in action.
03
Read all around it
Open the whole chapter, the verse held in the light of everything beside it, then step back out where you began.

“Be still, and know.” Sojourn is built for the second half of that sentence: the knowing that comes when you stop hurrying.

after Psalm 46:10
