The Journey Story

The Journey Church Hartsville was a church plant from a church in Lebanon Tennessee, The Journey Church Lebanon, which started on Easter Sunday 2010.  While the worship by praise and always been live, at first the sermons was pre-recorded and shown using a projector. As time went one a pastor was found to lead the Journey Church Hartsville, with the guidance form the Elder team form The Journey Church Lebanon. As time went one two men from our congregation were selected to God’s leading and guidance to be elders for the Hartsville campus, this brought our church leadership to three. A second church plant was started from The Journey Church Lebanon in Mt. Juliet Tennessee. With this new church plant it became more clear that the church plants would need to eventually be able to stand independent from the Lebanon campus, so the elders from all three locations started praying and working on what direction God was leading them for the church to no longer be one church with multiple locations but three separate churches. After about a year, the two church plants was independent from the Lebanon Campus. The elders at what was once the known as the Hartsville Campus of The Journey Church, decided to keep the name The Journey Church Hartsville.

We still have a very similar setup as to when the church was originally planted that Easter Sunday… We have live worship by singing praises to God, Communion is taken each week, and the sermon is delivered by an elder or pastor. Also while church is going on, we have an area where the kids have their own time to learn about God and the Bible. We have only one way in and out of this area, also the children are signed in and out by either a parent or a guardian while at the same time restricting access to this area by everyone that is not a children’s ministry worker.

Culture of The Journey

The Journey is a place where people from all backgrounds, races, and religious experiences are welcome. First-time visitors usually find that this eclectic mix of people is friendly and open to newcomers. For people who are exploring faith, The Journey is a safe place to ask questions. However, these questions can lead you down a path toward God that will change your life forever. Come join us on the journey!

Structure and Leadership

The Journey Church is an elder-led church. We believe the Scriptures are clear on elder leadership being the primary governing body of the local church. These are to be people who are qualified in line with Scriptures (1Timothy 3:1-7, Titus 1:5-9).

Luke 9:57-62 English Standard Version (ESV) The Cost of Following Jesus 57 As they were going along the road, someone said to him, “I will follow you wherever you go.” 58 And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.” 59 To another he said, “Follow me.” But he said, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.” 60 And Jesus[a] said to him, “Leave the dead to bury their own dead. But as for you, go and proclaim the kingdom of God.” 61 Yet another said, “I will follow you, Lord, but let me first say farewell to those at my home.” 62 Jesus said to him, “No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.” Footnotes: Luke 9:60 Greek he English Standard Version (ESV) The Holy Bible, English Standard Version.

WEEK #10- EXODUS: GOD MOVES HIS PEOPLE - EXODUS: GOD MOVES HIS PEOPLE

Exodus 20:1-21 English Standard Version (ESV) The Ten Commandments 20 And God spoke all these words, saying, 2 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. 3 “You shall have no other gods before[a] me. 4 “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. 5 You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing steadfast love to thousands[b] of those who love me and keep my commandments. 7 “You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain. 8 “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor, and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your male servant, or your female servant, or your livestock, or the sojourner who is within your gates. 11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy. 12 “Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land that the Lord your God is giving you. 13 “You shall not murder.[c] 14 “You shall not commit adultery. 15 “You shall not steal. 16 “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor. 17 “You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his male servant, or his female servant, or his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor's.” 18 Now when all the people saw the thunder and the flashes of lightning and the sound of the trumpet and the mountain smoking, the people were afraid[d] and trembled, and they stood far off 19 and said to Moses, “You speak to us, and we will listen; but do not let God speak to us, lest we die.” 20 Moses said to the people, “Do not fear, for God has come to test you, that the fear of him may be before you, that you may not sin.” 21 The people stood far off, while Moses drew near to the thick darkness where God was.

Mark-7-31-37 - Stand Alone Sermons

Mark 7:31-37 English Standard Version (ESV) Jesus Heals a Deaf Man 31 Then he returned from the region of Tyre and went through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee, in the region of the Decapolis. 32 And they brought to him a man who was deaf and had a speech impediment, and they begged him to lay his hand on him. 33 And taking him aside from the crowd privately, he put his fingers into his ears, and after spitting touched his tongue. 34 And looking up to heaven, he sighed and said to him, “Ephphatha,” that is, “Be opened.” 35 And his ears were opened, his tongue was released, and he spoke plainly. 36 And Jesus[a] charged them to tell no one. But the more he charged them, the more zealously they proclaimed it. 37 And they were astonished beyond measure, saying, “He has done all things well. He even makes the deaf hear and the mute speak.” Footnotes: Mark 7:36 Greek he English Standard Version (ESV) The Holy Bible, English Standard Version. ESV® Text Edition: 2016.

WEEK #09 - EXODUS- GOD MOVES HIS PEOPLE - EXODUS: GOD MOVES HIS PEOPLE

Exodus 19:9-25 English Standard Version (ESV) 9 And the Lord said to Moses, “Behold, I am coming to you in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with you, and may also believe you forever.” When Moses told the words of the people to the Lord, 10 the Lord said to Moses, “Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments 11 and be ready for the third day. For on the third day the Lord will come down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people. 12 And you shall set limits for the people all around, saying, ‘Take care not to go up into the mountain or touch the edge of it. Whoever touches the mountain shall be put to death. 13 No hand shall touch him, but he shall be stoned or shot;[a] whether beast or man, he shall not live.’ When the trumpet sounds a long blast, they shall come up to the mountain.” 14 So Moses went down from the mountain to the people and consecrated the people; and they washed their garments. 15 And he said to the people, “Be ready for the third day; do not go near a woman.” 16 On the morning of the third day there were thunders and lightnings and a thick cloud on the mountain and a very loud trumpet blast, so that all the people in the camp trembled. 17 Then Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet God, and they took their stand at the foot of the mountain. 18 Now Mount Sinai was wrapped in smoke because the Lord had descended on it in fire. The smoke of it went up like the smoke of a kiln, and the whole mountain trembled greatly. 19 And as the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him in thunder. 20 The Lord came down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain. And the Lord called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up. 21 And the Lord said to Moses, “Go down and warn the people, lest they break through to the Lord to look and many of them perish. 22 Also let the priests who come near to the Lord consecrate themselves, lest the Lord break out against them.” 23 And Moses said to the Lord, “The people cannot come up to Mount Sinai, for you yourself warned us, saying, ‘Set limits around the mountain and consecrate it.’” 24 And the Lord said to him, “Go down, and come up bringing Aaron with you. But do not let the priests and the people break through to come up to the Lord, lest he break out against them.” 25 So Moses went down to the people and told them.

Customer Reviews

Top podcasts in religion & spirituality.

The Journey Church exists to show Jesus as incomparably glorious.

1. The Bible was given by inspiration of God and is true, authoritative and sufficient.

2. There is one God, eternally existing in three separate and equally divine persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

3. God is the Creator of all things. Everything happens in accordance with God’s providence. 

4. God the Father justifies and sanctifies those who by grace have faith in Jesus Christ. 

5. God created male and female in His image. All human beings are alienated from God, corrupted in every aspect of their being because of sin.

6. Jesus sacrificially died for sinners, and by His death and resurrection, man, through faith and repentance, is reconciled with God.

7. The Holy Spirit gives spiritual gifts to the church for the purpose of glorifying God.

8. The Church is a local community of regenerated believers who confess Jesus Christ as Lord. 

9. A day is coming when Jesus will judge the world in righteousness. 

10. Jesus’ return will herald the final restoration of all things.
