Salt + Light (06.15.25) // Ps Todd Lucas by Oasis Church Chicago

In a world obsessed with platforms, likes, and followers, Jesus calls us to a different kind of influence, one that doesn't require fame but faithfulness. In this weeks message, we dive into Matthew 5:13–16 and explore what it really means to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world.

As we grow and step into all God has for us, we're called to live with authenticity and faith—rooted in knowing God, understanding our identity, and sharing what we've been given. We weren't created to chase perfection or live in duplicity. Somewhere along the way, the Christian walk became more about appearances than substance. But Jesus calls us simply to be—to shine our light and reflect Him with simplicity, purity, and authenticity.Let's remember who we are and live from the truth of Scripture:Children of God (John 1:12)A new creation (Galatians 4:5–7)Members of His body (1 Corinthians 12:27)Salt and light (Matthew 5:13–16)The Church (Ephesians 1:22)In Matthew 5, Jesus calls us salt and light—both essential for life. Light brings clarity, vision, energy, and well-being. Salt preserves, purifies, and enhances. We carry something powerful within us—let's live with that awareness.Matthew 5:13–16 (NIV) “You are the salt of the earth... You are the light of the world... Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.”Let's shine brightly, live with kindness, and boldly share the gospel with those around us.Join us for our Summer of Kindness activations!For more info, you can go to our website, check us out on Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube.

"Called to Serve" series - Pastor Kyle Gerrild

Pastor Kevin Warner Matthew 5:13-16

The Sermon on the Mount was the announcement of the in-breaking of the Kingdom of Heaven. Last week, we saw that the Beatitudes show us the characteristics of those who are in Christ's Kingdom, and the hope that we all have. This week, it continues as Jesus said that all who follow Him are the salt of the earth and the light of the world. Sunday, April 27, 2025 | Watch the full ⁠Sunday Gathering here⁠ ------------------------------------------- Connect with us on Social Media ⁠Website⁠ | ⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠Threads⁠ | ⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠Vimeo⁠------------------------------------------- Download our App⁠Apple App Store⁠ | ⁠Google Play Store⁠

Jesus doesn't begin the Sermon on the Mount with commands—He begins with identity. “You are the salt of the earth… You are the light of the world.” These aren't tasks to perform, but deep truths to live from. In this episode, we explore three powerful, identity-shaping metaphors Jesus gives His followers: Salt, Light, and a City on a Hill. These aren't random illustrations—they're rooted in the Hebrew Scriptures and steeped in covenant language. Salt reminds us of God's enduring faithfulness. Light reflects our calling to reveal God's presence in a dark world. And a City? It's a picture of a visible, communal people where others encounter the reign of God. Through this lens, we'll see how Jesus redefines what it means to be blessed and challenges us to live lives that are distinct, illuminated, and grounded in the story of God. Whether it's in our neighborhoods, workplaces, or online spaces, Jesus is calling us to be a preserving presence, a revealing light, and a visible people shaped by His Kingdom. Key Themes: Salt as covenant loyalty  Light as God's mission  The Church as a City that reflects God's kingdom Scripture Focus: Matthew 5:13–16 (NIV) "Let your light shine..." not to draw attention to ourselves, but to glorify our Father in heaven.” Episode Links: Buy Me A Coffee simplyrevised.org Contact Us Receive our newsletter Facebook Instagram Music Provided by Eric Gwin Appain Media: Bible Study Without Borders: Sermon on the Mount BibleProject (podcast): Salt of the Land and Light of the World

“Salt + Light + a dash of Love” from The Power of Love by Rev. Phil Anderson. Released: 2025. The post Salt + Light + a dash of Love appeared first on Bethel Church of Tallmadge.

Jesus calls us to be salt and light in the world—not someday, but right now. Just as salt preserves food and enhances flavor, we are meant to bring the goodness of God into the lives of those around us. Our lives have real value and purpose in bringing hope, truth, and life to our communities. And just like light helps guide the way in the darkness, we are meant to shine brightly, showing others the way of Jesus.

We are a key ingredient in God's plan for the world.

In the final week of our "Jesus' Church" series, we explore what it means to be a church that truly influences the world. Looking at Matthew 5:13-16, Jesus calls His followers to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world—bringing transformation and hope wherever they go. James 1:27 reminds us that true religion is caring for the vulnerable and living with purity. Inspired by Robert Lewis' powerful quote, we reflect on how the value of a church is not in its attendance but in its impact on lives. Join us as we learn what it means to be a church that makes a difference for the kingdom of God.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.org Connect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!

Jesus calls us to be salt and light—to preserve what is good and shine His truth in a world that desperately needs it.

Broadcasting from the serene Wandering Caboose Ranch in Banning, California, Clint reflects on the vital importance of self-love and how it intertwines with our understanding of God's love for us. Clint begins by sharing a powerful segment from a podcast featuring Zachary Levi, where the actor candidly discusses his struggles with self-worth and the transformative impact of therapy. Levi's revelation that self-love is essential for personal happiness resonates deeply, prompting Clint to explore this theme further. He emphasizes the need to identify toxic self-talk and the lies we often believe about ourselves, which can hinder our ability to embrace God's unconditional love. Throughout the episode, Clint outlines five actionable steps to cultivate self-love: identifying the lies we tell ourselves, repenting for believing those lies, rejecting them, breaking their power, and ultimately replacing them with the truth of God's love. He encourages listeners to engage in self-reflection and prayer, reminding us that we are all worthy of love and deserving of a fulfilling life. Tune in to this enlightening episode of the Radio Coffee House to discover how to break free from negative self-perceptions and embrace the truth of God's love. Learn how to foster a healthier relationship with yourself, allowing that love to flow into your interactions with others and enriching your life in profound ways.    

People wear uniforms for a variety of reasons; identity, sense of belonging, and professionalism. For example when you see a person in a small white truck, blue pants and jacket roll through the neighborhood, you know your mail or package is about to be delivered. What is the uniform of a citizen of the Kingdom of Heaven? In the Beatitudes, Jesus welcomed in rag tag bunch of nobodies into God's Kingdom. The truth is they weren't much to look at...they were a pathetic, powerless bunch. Yet Jesus invites them into the Kingdom and in Matthew 5:13-16 he describes what their uniform looks like: Salt & Light.  What is Jesus even talking about? More importantly, how are we supposed to "wear that uniform" in our world today? To learn more about what Jesus is describing in this section of The Sermon on the Mount, give a listen to part two of The Sermon on the Mount.

In Matthew 5:13-20, we get Jesus' take on two important questions: What does Jesus think about his disciples? What does Jesus think about the Bible? As Jesus' disciples, we are called to be salt and light, convinced that the Bible is good, true and right.            From January 19, 2025 -- Want to get connected to Coastway Church?

Lead Pastor Josh Carstensen continues our Sermon on the Mount series. Is it our mission to shape our nation's laws around Christian values? Or is Jesus calling us to something more radical? In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus paints a picture of salt and light—metaphors of influence, value, and transformation. But these aren't metaphors for political policy; they're calls to action rooted in personal integrity and love. Today, we'll unpack what it means to preserve worth, shine truth, and transform culture—not through legislation but through how we live, love, and honor others.

In week 2 of the Salt & Light series, Pastor Michael explains how our character gets in the way of our obedience. "Obedience is doing what God says, how God says it and when He says to do it. Anything else is rebellion."

Join us this week as we continue into our series named Salt & Light! This week Pastor Michael, challenges the church to link arms for the mission of God. A UNITED church is a STRONG church.

Jihya spent five years working as an exotic dancer, thinking she was living her best life (until it became painfully obvious that she wasn't.) During those dark years, God encountered Jihya at the club where she worked! Even after finding faith, she remained in that lifestyle, yet God still showed her love and walked beside her.    More than a decade later, Jihya is a mother-baby nurse, married, and a mama. She recently started a ministry for women in the commercial sex industry in Portland, Oregon: the city with the most strip clubs per capita in the United States. There are hardly any Christian ministries that support sex industry workers due to stigma and shame. In this episode, Jihya shares how believers need to meet adult industry workers where they are and build relationships from a place of love, not judgment!
