Sermon: Salty and Bright

You are the salt of the earth. It’s a given, granted by Jesus Himself. As a disciple of Jesus, you are salt. Salt seasons, purifies, and preserves. When you sprinkle it on a dish it tickles the taste buds. A little goes a long way. Wherever God sprinkles you – in your home, your community, your work, your school – there you salt, seasoning your little corner of the world with Jesus.  

You are the light of the world. Jesus is the light of the world too. In fact, He is the source of light while you are the reflection of that light. Like the moon reflecting the sun’s rays, Jesus is the light, and you reflect His light into the darkness of this world. Like salt, light makes a difference. It’s noticed like a shining city set high on a hill or like a lamp set a on a stand that fills the whole house with light.  In Christ, you are the salt of the earth and the light of the world.
