In this episode of Uncommon Sense, I'm calling out a problem no one wants to confront: the normalization of partying, drinking, and casual sex especially among so-called “conservative influencers.”You cannot claim to defend Western Civilization while publicly celebrating the very behaviors that destroyed past civilizations. Conservatism without morality is just aesthetic rebellion.We don't need more clout, cocktails, or compromised values. We need a return to godliness, self-discipline, and moral responsibility because the future generations watching us will inherit whatever standard we tolerate today.If we want to save the West, we have to get serious about being truly Christian again.--https://www.bible.com/

In this powerful message from our series "Living the Way of Jesus," Pastor Matthew Thrower dives into Matthew 5:13-16 (ESV), where Jesus declares His followers as the salt of the earth and the light of the world. Discover how we're called to preserve truth amid moral decay and illuminate grace in a darkening society—fulfilling God's redemptive plan from Genesis to Revelation. Drawing on cultural insights from the ancient world and connecting to the melodic line of Scripture, this sermon confronts complacency with prophetic urgency: If we lose our saltiness or hide our light, we risk divine judgment. But as kingdom citizens, we're equipped to infiltrate culture, uphold holiness, and shine boldly for God's glory.

In this episode, Jesus calls his disciples to bring out the best in the world and to allow God's light to shine through them!

Sunday, January 11, 2026 - Matthew 5:13-16 | The Lord's disciples should make a difference in a world that is fallen. What does it mean to be salt and light? 

Date: 1/4/26 Series: Stand-Alone Sermon Passage: Matthew 5:13-16 Speaker: Rev. Cole Lescher

Now comes the time when we resolve. Right-thinking Christians and Americans, determined to live life better, and in the new year 2025, be better soldiers of the cross and better citizens of the greatest nation in the history of mankind.So, on to DIFFERENT AND BETTER 2025.LIFE. Only one life and that will soon be past. Treasure every moment. Our Lord Jesus Christ came to bring us life more abundantly. Live 2025 in an abundant life. Live as HE said joyfully, live as HE would have you live, that your JOY might be full. Life is good no matter. ENJOY EVERY MOMENT.WORRY. Nothing is more negative. Worry is wrong, perhaps rising to the level of sin. Give no thought at all, my fellow Christians, to the TOMORROW. It is a day with its own good and evil and to worry about a day not yet come ruins this day, the day which the Lord has made.THE FIGHT OF FAITH. Stand up for your faith. Stand tall in the Lord. Never compromise your faith in any way by thought, word, or deed. NEVER!RESIST EVIL. Here comes evil 2025, the devil at work, more aggressive than ever. Resist evil and it will go away, the devil will flee. Resist it with all your Christian might, armor, and strength. Do what is right, and fight back. Never give up. NEVER! In the words of the Apostle Paul:PRESS ON FOR THE PRIZE OF THE HIGH CALLING OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS.PRESS ON!SALT AND LIGHT. Let you light, my fellow Christians, so shine before all mankind, that all may see your good works, know what you believe, and glorify not you, but:HIM.Whether word or deed, a deed seems to be more lasting and effective than a word in so many ways. Flavor this world with Christian love and forgiveness (salt) and let your light so shine before men. Let it shine brighter than ever.EDUCATE. Now comes a radical, woke, progressive agenda seeking to transform, really destroy so much of America, a culture, system, and group of priorities which is thoroughly and completely:ANTI-AMERICAN.It is wrong. Say so and stand up.YOU. Your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. Care for it, nurture it, preserve it. Live healthy as God would intend and respectfully in the flesh that God has given you.PRAYER. Pray without ceasing. Be guided by the Holy Spirit. Pray always, everywhere. Live in a prayerful environment, where the Holy Spirit rules and you are in constant communication, prayerful communication with your Lord Jesus Christ. Prayer works wonders, whether it comes from the closet, all alone, even with groanings which are interpreted by the Holy Spirit, or in mass assemblies. God hears and answers HIS WAY, at His time, and always for your good.THANKS. In all things give thanks. ALL THINGS. There is no such thing as luck, but only the will of God at work, whether we are aware of that or not. All things happen as HE would will and no matter what they are, good or bad in our opinion, they are His will at work, and in all such things we should be:THANKFUL.And especially, we should be thankful for His:UNSPEAKABLE GIFT,A gift that cannot be adequately described in words:OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST.LOVE. No matter how hateful the world is, no matter how alone you may feel or be, the love of our Lord is with you. Christ, closer than a friend or brother, is with you, by your side, even if no one else is, as our Lord was with the Apostle Paul in his final days, all alone in a dungeon. Christ died for you and there is no greater love than that of a man who lays down his life for a friend:YOU AND ME.2025 is the year which the Lord has made. Let us be glad and rejoice therein. Let us resolve to live this great year joyfully, and more productively, and work in his behalf for the night is coming when no man or woman can work.A very blessed New Year's greeting from all of us at the Crawford Broadcasting Co. and may you and yours have a year with the full blessing of our Lord Jesus Christ.

This weekend at Keystone, we were honored to have special guest Holly Wagner bring an incredible message about what it truly means to be Salt and Light in the world. Jesus calls us to live in a way that flavors, preserves, illuminates, and transforms the spaces we step into. In this sermon, Holly reminds us that our influence isn't accidental—it's intentional. We're created to bring hope to dark places, carry joy into heavy moments, and reflect the heart of God everywhere we go.

Join Pastor Mike Burchfield as he continues his series, Discourses of the King of Heaven. This Sunday he will be discussing: Being Salt and Light Matthew 5:13-16 You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people's feet. You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.

Send us a textIn Matthew 5:16 Jesus said, "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." What would it look like to let God's light shine in elementary school classrooms today? Special guest, April Graney, shows young readers exactly what that looks like in her new children's book If Jesus Came to My School, published by Penguin Random House. April is on the show today sharing a word of encouragement to parents entrusted with the important responsibility of teaching their kids to be salt and light, wherever they are. She builds this foundational message on three things: purpose, prayer, and power, and shares a little bit about her own journey as a mom of 5 and teacher at a children's home and school for at-risk students.  Listen in and be inspired! April also shares helpful resources for parents and teachers navigating classrooms of all types.

Living a Salt and Light - Matthew 5:13-16

We examine Matthew 5:13-16 and the Lord's call to His disciples to be salt and light in light of the Gospel's changing power.

Matthew 5: 13-16 NKJV We are called to stay salty We are called to shine steadily and stay lit We are called to show the Savior

This is the second installment of The Good Life, our exciting teaching series on The Sermon on the Mount. Found in Matthew 5-7, the Sermon consists of 111 verses, with 2,500+ words in the original Greek manuscripts. The core of the Sermon we pray daily: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, May your kingdom come, May your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” (Matthew 6:9-10 NIV) The Our Father is the password that unlocks the entire Sermon. Jesus is bringing His Kingdom down here into our broken world. The key message of Talk 2 is: You are the salt of the earth, you are the light of the world.

We shouldn't have to apologize for taking our faith into the public square. It's not the only worldview in the public arena, and we have every right to live out our faith intentionally. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the need for us to stop hiding our Christian identity and instead shine the light of God's Kingdom purposefully in our homes and communities. We are responsible for instilling our biblical values and morals in the next generation, and that begins at our kitchen tables. It won't be easy. We will face pushback and hardship, but most things worth doing require discomfort and effort. Let's determine to do the difficult thing in pursuit of God. 

Weekly Sermon from Trinity Church Denver

On Sunday, we continued in our new message series through the Sermon on the Mount. Pastor Ron preached out of Matthew 5:13- 16 on being salt and light in the world. Have a good week!

Table salt today is so common, it becomes another thing we take for granted. You go to the store, pick a cylinder or jar of salt off the shelf, and then go home. You don't even think about it.Now, consider that 1,000 and more years ago, if a person wanted to use salt on his dinner, this required some prior work. A lot of work! The Romans boiled seawater in huge, lead-lined pans. So valuable was salt in the Roman Empire, it was used as currency! Mainly, it was used as a critical food preservative.Matthew 5 verses 13–16 says, “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.                    Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.”God is telling us that we are to be the instrument that preserves and makes known the Gospel, and salt is one of the analogies.Let us say to our friends, loved ones, and even strangers: Taste, and see that the Lord's promises are good!Let's pray.Lord, help us to be salt and light for your Word in this world. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world! Save 15% Off your entire purchase of faith-based apparel + gifts at Kerusso.com with code KDD15.

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?
