Sojourn to
the Grand Canyon / Zion / Sedona
Experience the breathtaking majesty of the American Southwest with Sojourn Travel & Consulting’s expertly guided adventure through some of God’s most spectacular creations. As you journey through towering canyons, flowing rivers, and remarkable geological formations, our biblically trained guides will help you connect these natural wonders to scriptural truths, revealing how “every word of God proves true” in both biblical revelation and the natural world.
From the depths of the Grand Canyon to the heights of Zion’s peaks, this transformative expedition invites you to witness firsthand how "His invisible attributes, namely, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived . . . in the things that have been made” (Romans 1:20). Our “geologian” guides lead you through landscapes that simultaneously inspire awe and provide compelling evidence for biblical accounts of Creation and the Great Flood, strengthening your faith through direct encounter with God’s handiwork. We’ll point out specific formations that reveal catastrophic processes, connect biblical accounts to physical evidence before your eyes, and answer your questions with scientific precision and biblical faithfulness—all while creating space for fellowship, reflection, and spiritual growth.
Our comprehensive approach blends adventure, education, and worship, creating unforgettable moments that strengthen faith while fostering deep appreciation for the Creator’s handiwork. Each day brings new opportunities to experience God’s glory through active exploration, thoughtful teaching, and meaningful fellowship. Whether rafting the Colorado River, hiking scenic trails, or simply being still under star-filled skies, you’ll discover how intentional encounters with creation can renew your spirit, challenge your perspective, and deepen your understanding of biblical truth.
