Designing concept of the mascot

Like the mascots for huge worldwide events such as Olympics and World Cup, the mascot of World Expo is very important for interpreting the theme and expressing the culture. The emblems and images of past World Expos have turned into the unique intangible legacy. The World Expo mascots have not only become the representatives of Expo images, but also embody the culture and spirit of hosting countries and cities.

Mascot, as the symbol featuring the hosting country, will embody the history, development, culture, concept and social background of the country and will play an important role in the communication in political, economical and cultural fields.

The mascot of World Expo 2010 Shanghai China is trying to accomplish the following functions:

Sunset Inn is located in the middle of Jacksonville, NC. The location is actually in a great spot because there are many restaurants across the street. However, if you are looking for a nice place to stay where it is quiet, do not come here.

The price ranges from $65-$80, offering double or king rooms. They also have a suite that is about $120 that is not exactly worth it. They honor discounts such as military, corporate, AAA, AARP, and they offer a weekly rate that lowers the rate to $50 a night.

The most quiet and private location would be on the backside of the property. They offer security on the weekends, and that is because they need it. On the weekends, they are dealing with some of the military that often parties and cause commotion.

Unfortunately, there are other things that you need to be aware of; things such as criminal activities have been reported along with escort services.

The only amenities they offer are their continental breakfast. Their continental…

Chad BaptizingPastor Chad Lewis sat down with me for a 10-minute talk on our free Inside Sojourn podcast, where he answered these questions:

  • How is he doing in his battle with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
  • How have his pastoral duties recently shifted
  • Why are some of the Sojourn staff/elder reorganizations taking place?
  • Why does Sojourn occasionally hire a pastor who was not previously a part of this community?

Justin Wants NewAsk many Sojourn pastors, staff and members, and they’ll tell you that one of their favorite blogs is Between Two Worlds by Justin Taylor (Editorial Director at Crossway Books, and Elder at Grace Community Bible Church in Roselle, Illinois).  In fact, it’s one of the most widely read Christian blogs on the internet.  I personally enjoy reading Justin’s posts each day.

Pastor Daniel and I were honored to have lunch with Justin this afternoon, shortly after he arrived in town to speak at the Adopting For Life Conference this weekend at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.

After lunch Justin was a good sport about posing with one of our “I Want New” photos, which we’re using as part of our Vision campaign.  So from the picture we can ascertain that he either:

East communionThis week, Pastor Daniel Montgomery will teach on singing, clapping, stomping, kneeling, bowing — all about worshiping our great God through music and rhythm. We all know that some people are more expressive than others.  And of course, whole streams of Christianity have developed traditions that are more or less expressive than other traditions.  Culture, history and even real theological differences all play a part in making us more inhibited or demonstrative in worship gatherings.

And while we can all think of gatherings where emotional display trumps everything else, the Bible — and particularly the Psalms — does give us license and even commandments to worship wholeheartedly.  So what should that look like within the Sojourn community, in 2010, here in the Louisville area?

It should be a fun, instructive sermon, and a fitting close to our sermon series on the Psalms.  And you’ll be able to follow along with further devotional thoughts next week, if you choose:

Speaking of praise and music, if you have our These Things I Remember album, sing along with “Mourning Into Dancing” this weekend in preparation for singing it together Sunday.  We’ll also worship through the song “King of Glory,” which Chris Tomlin wrote based on Psalm 24.

Hear “Mourning Into Dancing” by Sojourn at Last.fm now

Hear “King Of Glory” by Chris Tomlin at Last.fm now

And as a special advance notice, next week (Sunday, March 7) we’ll begin our A.D. sermon series — an exploration of the entire New Testament, book-by-book, for the rest of 2010.  Pastor Daniel will start with a special month long mini-series on the four Gospels.
