Podcasts about Salt and light

PLEASE ENJOY THIS RE-BROADCAST OF AN EARLIER NCR PODCAST: In this episode of the National Crawford Roundtable podcast the guys talk about the decline in Biblical Worldview, even among professing Christians. Are evangelical Christians doing a good job of representing Jesus? What is the Church doing right? What is the Church doing wrong? How have sex and money scandals hurt the Church? Has the Church done a good job of being the salt and light of the Earth? Is winning the "culture war" the same as making disciples?

For our Mission Focus Sunday, we had the privilege of hearing the Word preached from Philip Van Steenburgh. He serves as the Lead Pastor of Wornall Road Baptist Church in Kansas City. He preached from Matthew 5:13-16 on how we are called to be salt and light in this world. Truly, Jesus makes us different in order to make a difference in the lives of others around us.

If you want to enjoy life and see many happy days, keep your tongue from speaking evil and your lips from telling lies.

On this episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson, we confront the horrific attack at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis. The shooter, Robert “Robin” Westman, once walked those same halls as a student. Years of unchecked mental illness and spiritual rebellion ended in bloodshed.America is in denial. We refuse to face the truth: the transgender movement is built on a Satanic lie. No one can change the sex God gave them. Pretending otherwise doesn't heal broken souls, it destroys them and puts others in danger.Christians must speak plainly. Love does not mean affirming sin or confusion. Love means pointing people back to Christ, who alone gives us our identity. Until our nation repents and turns back to God, tragedies like this will only increase.Pray for the victims and their families.--https://policecoffee.com/collections/coffee

*Mission Celebration Sunday from Matthew 5:13-16 Jesus' teaching in Matthew 5-7, we know as The Sermon on the Mount…but it is so much more than just a collection of wisdom and challenge and instruction from Jesus. It is at the heart of it, an invitation from Jesus to consider that there is another way, that there is … Continue reading "(August 24, 2025) “Sermon on the Mount: Salt and Light”"

Join us as we talk about what it means to be salt and light in a dark and flavorless world.

In these verses, Matthew 5:13-16, we are presented with the responsibility of the citizens of the kingdom.There are four things that Matthew writes that Jesus said the citizens of the kingdom are to be.The first is to be the salt of the earth. The second is to be the light of the world. The third is being a city on a hill which cannot be hidden. The fourth is to be the kind of light that can light up all who are in the house. The purpose of being on display before the world is to display the glory of God thru Jesus Christ, which is the supreme purpose of the Christian.On the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast here is Dr. John G. Mitchell, Matthew 5:13 thru 16.

Followers of Jesus are meant to make a difference

On this episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson, we're addressing the troubling reality of the Epstein list and Donald Trump's failure to bring it to light, holding it up to the standard of biblical justice. God's Word commands that evil be exposed, not hidden in the darkness. I also take time to answer a variety of questions from you, my beloved audience.--https://policecoffee.com/collections/coffee

We have a heritage of faith, but we're not just studying history. God has called us to this time and place to complete an assignment. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the United States' Christian beginnings and the obligation we have to uphold godly ideals in our culture today. Pastor Allen shares about Elijah's and Jesus' difficult assignments—and how they overcame opposition with God's strength. We all have a sphere of influence and a mission from the Lord, so let's work at recognizing His movement and saying yes to His invitations!

Passage(s): Matthew 5:13-16 Disciples of Jesus have been set apart as the salt and light of the world. The Christian life is the constant, grace-empowered pursuit of deeper, truer, and more lasting godliness in every area.

June 15, 2025Pastor Matt KendrickSalt and LightMatthew 5:13-16The character that we see in the Beatitudes is what makes us salty and light. It's us living out Jesus' way: humility over arrogance, other-centeredness over self-centeredness, forgiving over holding a grudge. Those kinds of people change an office. They change a family. They change a school. They lift a city!Be salty this week! Shine your light! Taking risks for the sake of the gospel is not only acceptable… it's essential.Be bold as you share Jesus, invite people into your life, and serve others. Thank you for listening!For more info on Redemption City Church check out our website.

Read OnlineJesus said to his disciples: “You are the salt of the earth. But if salt loses its taste, with what can it be seasoned? It is no longer good for anything but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. You are the light of the world…” Matthew 5:13–14Every Christian has two primary duties in life. First, we must strive for personal holiness. And second, we must work to help others achieve this same degree of holiness. This is what it means to be the “salt of the earth” and the “light of the world.”Consider salt. Salt is a preservative, and it also adds flavor to food. It does so by entering the food and, in a sense, disappearing. So it must be with us. First, our Lord must enter our lives and preserve us from the corruption of sin. But as He does so, He will also bring out our goodness in a way that the “flavor” of holiness is evident to others. In this way, we will be used as salt for others. This is especially done by our works of charity.Saint Thérèse of Lisieux said in her autobiography, “I see now that true charity consists in bearing with the faults of those about us, never being surprised at their weaknesses, but edified at the least sign of their virtue.” She believed that this was especially the way we act as salt and light to others. We help to preserve others from sin by being merciful to them when they are weak. We enrich their lives by seeing their goodness and rejoicing in it. And we do so in a hidden way. By our gentleness and compassion, our kindness and mercy, we preserve others and help them to grow in God's abundant grace. And we do so, many times, without them even realizing how God used us.Consider, also, light. The world in which we live is oftentimes quite dark and despairing. There is corruption all around us and temptations abound. Thus, the light of Christ must be made manifest far and wide. Those all around us need to see clearly the path to holiness and happiness. Again, this is possible if we first work to become light itself. Christ, the true Light of the World, must so permeate our lives that we find it almost automatic to shine brightly in a fallen world. When Christ is alive in us, we will radiate joy and peace, calm and conviction, moral goodness and determination. And when we live this way, we will not have to “impose” the Gospel on others; rather, God's light will simply shine and be a beacon of hope to those who come into our presence.Reflect, today, upon these two missions in life. First, ponder your call to holiness. How does God want to bring light into your own life, preserve you from all sin and add spiritual flavor for holy living? Second, who does God want you to love with His love? Who needs hope and joy, mercy and kindness, words of wisdom and encouragement? Be holy and then allow that holiness to shine forth to others and you will indeed be the salt of the earth and the light of the world.My Jesus, the true Light of the World, please shine brightly in my life so that I will see clearly and will be preserved from the darkness of sin. As You fill me with Your light, please use me as an instrument of Your love and mercy to a world filled with chaos and confusion. Dispel the darkness, dear Lord, and use me as Your instrument as You will.

Matthew 5:13-16 / Pastor Christian Simas

God draws people to himself and makes them his own. The Catechism shows us what makes God's people different from everyone else, and what it is that unites them. Fr. Mike hones in on what exactly it is that the People of God do, and exhorts us to start doing that right here, today. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 781-786. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.
